Hi,

So umm.. I'm going to be buying World of Warcraft real soon and I was wondering what type of graphics card would be able to handle WoW's graphics? (please keep the price under $100, and also it'd be nice if you could list where to find the card)

Thank you!! :D

o yeah i have 1k ram too, if that helps.

Um....I used a Intel card and it ran fine but, I would go for a Nvida 7300 or if you wait for a newegg deal, get a Nvida 7600.

you dont need a crazy vid card at all, the most basic will do the job, and whats with all the people saying "OMFG YOU NEED AT LEAST ONE GIG OF RAM TO RUN TEH GAME" uh no, you dont, my friend has 512mb of ram, runs the game lagless, i have 768mb of ram, and i run it lagless, you only need 512, only reason people "lag" and blame it on there lack of ram, wen most of the time, they do have enough, is becose they check out to much porn/warez/keygen/hacks and such sites and there computer becomes filled with spyware, leeching all the memory, and there to ****ing dumb to get rid of it, so there solution "RUN TO TEH STORE WITH TEH FAT STAX OF CASH AND BUY TEH RAM" gg noob, how about you just cut on the pron and get a decent spyware cleaning software? its cheaper, and does the job.

Heres another Q.


Does your graphics card come built into the motherboard? (u cant remove it?)

Cause if thats the case, then u'd have to buy a hol new motherboard.

Tell me everything about your computer and I'll recommend A video card...

For example, this is my computer:

Well, if you'd wanted the best one, it will also depend you have good specs, but as far as I can see --- just read this top ten and make your own decision:

what?! no..
If you have a built in graphics card, that is fine, you can still install a new graphics card in an AGP slot
