Cheap ATI Video Card for WoW?

Hello i just need this for the pc of my younger bro.Whats a good ATI card? That can run WoW and maybe some newer games with decent quality?

Maybe just $100 or below. If there is anything. THANKS!

Whatever you can find for under $100 - 4650 and 4670 are decent bets.

forgive my ignorance but will they run well? im not gona use them just my younger brother. a gift. he is still in highschool & not really into new games. my fiance just got him into wow. im a girl and i dont know a lot about video games. im sorry. also he wants 2 play neverwinter nights 2.

100USD will get you a 4850.

If you dont have sufficient power to run a 4850 (400w recommended) I would opt for a 4670 1GB.

Go for any 4670 1GB they dont differ that much.

Really thanks! Its my bday gift to my brother. it will ran Starcraft 2 right coz he is so excited for that.

actually the 9600gso is probably closer to the hd 4670

I just got a 4650 for $55 from Newegg that I'm really happy with. (I was going to go for the 4670, but I had to work with an anorexic Dell Inspiron 530S case that only allows for low-profile, which onlythe Sapphire 4650 is.) Anyway, it's a sweet little card that should play Wow just fine. I'm psyched at the performance I'm getting from it: It plays COD4, COD5, and, I'm told by various folks posting reviews of the card on Newegg, the vast majority of Steam games at almost maxed out graphics at 1280x1024. No problem with games based on the Unreal 3 engine on high settings. I haven't not been able to play anything yet (that is, I download a lot of demos, and it's worked for all of them so far). And it runs fine off my Dell's wimpy 250W PSU, and it's super quiet. I haven't bothered overclocking it because I don't want to push the PSU, and I haven't needed to.

FWIW.

Rest of my system:

Dell Inspiron 530S

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400

3 GB

you dont need much to play it on hgihest at all really even with wrath expansion im thinging at best hd 2600xt (x1950xt)
