wow computer?

[Knomez]

how much does it cost to make a wow computer that runs smooth i heard 700 bucks but i dont know how to make one for one thing and another i dont have the money lol

[sineater213]

to make a smooth one is about $600 thats just imo

[Knomez]

well i wanted it with 1 gb ram and windows xp ( i hate vista) anyways would it still be same?

[raceboy404]

i run WoW fine with a 2.2ghz proccesor and 1gb of ram with Xp SP2
Raiden 9600 video card and i get around 26 Fps when i first enter Org and it goes up to about 35 after a few mins and a good idle of 55 60

about a $400 comp with the .5gb boost and and the video card about $550

[Knomez]

so $1000 would cover it

[raceboy404]

so $1000 would cover it

omgomgomg My old computer was an HP Media Center ed. Only 512 mb RAM w/ 128 mb ATI X300 SE video card, and it was oldish / full HD so WoW didn't play too well I'm talking, I could barely walk into Org without lagging so bad that I moved once every 10 + seconds, or I would timeout all together.

Man, I loved that computer. Until it got slow and such. I used to play WoW on it through Dial-up when WoW first came out

Now I got a new HP laptop 2gb RAM and an nvidia 8600 GS, and WoW plays very well

I would say get a computer with at least a gig of RAM and a dedicated video card and you should be fine.

i just configured a power house computer for my friend with a core2duo for only $980, 2 gigs of ram, an 8600gts nvidia, and 320gig harddrive.
newegg for the win.

[raceboy404]

i dont like big hard drives, i have a 7200RPM 80g sata2 for my Downloads and a 40g with same stats for my OS, i gotta 250gb sata1 i might through in for Misc stuff. (IE Music, videos and photos)

Fast Harddrive=the shit and if i get a nasty virus, its useally one hard drive and i can just format it if its bad enough.
