Will it run with good graphics, slim to no lag and meet the requirements to play?

That RAM is really going to cripple your performance. You'll probably be looking at low-med settings, assuming you have a good internet connection.

Why people buy computers that cheap with the intention of running any sort of game I'll never know.

Same here buddy,hell i'd rather buy 2 PS2's or 1 Wii for a similar price to that PC since the newest game that CP will run any good is probably Shogun: Total War or Rise of Nations at best.

You dont want to buy a Pc that just barely runs WoW, WoW 2 is going to out within a year I think and is going to push graphics more than WOW. So buy a 400-500 Pc then add to it

Heres a good start http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3322776&CatId=2631

Then buy a Geforce 7600 or higher and you will be set for MMO's , Heres one http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2928368&CatId=1560

From personal experience, to run wow well at 1280x1024 I would suggest the following as minimum specs

2.0ghz Core2Duo

1.5gb of RAM (addons destroy performance with my 1gb of RAM)

256mb Video Card

that will run it very well at that res, doubt it will drop below 50fps except when you head into Shat

It will probably run, but it will run TERRIBLY. 512mb of ram is horrible for WoW, trust me, I went through it. Also, that is a budget processor that is just awful. If that's all you can afford DO NOT expect to play any remotely new games. WoW will run, but NOT with good graphics and NOT without horrible stuttering in heavily populated areas (orgrimmar etc..).

RayvinAzn

I don't get laid because I'm married, not because I'm on the computer 3-4 hours a day while I'm not at work supporting myself because mommy and daddy won't pay top dollar for my computer parts.

since your such an old, married man, how come u spend most of your time on gamespot posting smart alic comments on almost everyones topic like a no life child/teen? think about it RayvinAzn......plus i work buddy........

footballa27

Most of my time? I'm on here a few hours a day, tops. Smart "alic" comments? Only to people who ignore my advice and act like it's my fault they didn't understand it. Yes, I'll pose some serious questions to people who are willing to pay top dollar for parts yet have no idea why. The reason I do that is because you don't have to pay through the nose, and I'm sick of whinging morons that do pay that much rag on PC gaming two years down the road because they can't max games on their $5,000 rigs any more.

If you talk **** about RayvinAzn,you're a sad little pathetic *****,RayvinAzn is one of the most knowledgeable guys on these boards,and he's more mature than YOU'LL ever be,also more mature than i'll ever be as well.
