    Many things come into factor here, are you experienced at all with building PC's?

    What is your budget? Are you simply buying a pre-built commercial computer?

    No point in upgrading, really, you are probably just going to scrap your old computer.

    In my personal opinion, if you want a computer up to par, everything could use a good over-haul.

    But this isn't the case considering you are buying a brand new computer.

    Well for all of those games, you'd have at least $25 in online fees a month (Just so you know), but if you want all of those your gonna need more RAM, because I believe WoW by itself was 4.5GB, so you could probably fit that, and another game, if you wanna base it on getting WoW... But I don't really know much more than that. I hope that helps! :3

    You can probably play WoW but I think you will need more RAM. It's best to buy an already made computer instead of customizing it. But all I know, you can play the boring maplestory. =p Oh, you can possibly play Ragnarok.

    eh, probally its much easier just to sell your old one and get a new already made one. If you knew how to fix all the components, it will be cheaper( probally around 100 bucks?) Anyway, if you wanna play ALL those games, I recommend you to upgrade your RAM, hard drive space,video card, and a better pentium. Pentium II is like, 1995. /swt
