Hi boys and Girls,

I want to know if my new pc will dominate these games on maxed out settings with no hiccups.

Tiberium sun 2, Age of empires 3, battle for middle earth and WoW.

My pc: Q6600, P35 ds3p, 2Gb 800mhz ram, Gainward 8800gt, 80gb seagate barracuda, 550watt powersupply.

Cheers any help would be great.

For World of Warcraft you'll be limited by internet speed, not graphics. All those game should run smooth as butter at maximum settings though - indeed, you could probably run two of those games at once without dropping into unplayable settings. I'm not sure why you're sticking with 80GB of hard drive space though, that makes no sense to me.

Whats wrong with 80GB's? If he is running XP and doesent have lots of media its probably enough!

Sure it's enough, but he sort of implied that it was a new machine. Even for the most budget of machines, I wouldn't buy anything less than 160GB. If it's an old drive carried over, then that's fine, but for a new machine, it would have been a poor choice.
