How should WoW play on this machine.

[Duncan_Mon]

Well as i see alot of you play WoW, i thought id ask how itll play on this new machine im getting for christmas.

It basicly played ok on this pc (specs to the left<<) but was no where near good, and now that my PSU and other componets are starting to burn out, after i log on with my charachter and the game loads, i get a blue screen of death with white dashes and smudges instead of the actual error message.

At Christmas im getting this system,

PCICASE CS2600-SL Hyperline II Silver ATX Tower Case - No PSU
Sapphire PURE CrossFire Advantage skt 939 8 channel audio
AMD (Venice) Athlon 64Bit 3200+ Socket 939pin 512k L2cache 90nm Retail Boxed Processor
Connect 3D X800GTO 256MB GDDR3 PCI-E DVI VIVO
Kingston 1GB DDR PC3200 400MHz Non-ECC CL3 (3-3-3) 184pin DIMM's (Kit of 2 x 512mb)
Western Digital WD1200JS Caviar SE 120GB 7200RPM SATA2/300 8MB Cache - OEM
Antec PSU True Blue 480w Blue Led Fan
Ebuyer Extra Value System Exhaust Blower Fan
80mm blue case cooling fan (sleeve bearing)3 Of these
Ebuyer Extra Value Fan Filter In Blue 3 Of These

The system will probably be running at stock, but i may be trying to unlock the 16 pipelines in this gfx card (if i find out that this failing doesnt cause damage). I may be overclocking the cpu and gfx card a bit if i can find out how much i could overclock with the cooling in my system.

How well will this run WoW, battlegrounds etc?

I personally cant see a problem with WoW runnin on that at all, i got an Asus SLi Deluxe board - AMD 64 3000 - X850XT - 1gig memory and it runs fine, get a TINY but of jumpin in one of the MAJOR citys but its exspected tbh, its only bout half a second but thats coz theres about 100ppl doin there thing under you

all in all i wouldnt see a problem bud

I run WoW at max settings and a bit of AF, 1280x1024 on:
AMD Athlon64 3500
1GB RAM
Nvidia Geforce 6800GT

I just get a bit of lag loading the big citys, but that's expected when it has 100 player models to load

lol, it'll be fine, my semperon 3000 and gig of ram run it smooth, and that setup whoops mine into oblivion

It's been ages since I've fiddled with my spec or changed anything, so I can't even remember all that I have, but I run WoW on 1600x1200 full effects (expcet AA or AF I think) all bars whacked up and I rarely see any drops below 30fps which is not even noticible to the naked eye...

DFI Infinity nForce 4 board or whatever it is
Athlon XP2500-m
1GB Crucial non "uber" fast memory
128MB 9600XT

That's it. Nothing uber, and it runs fine!

[idimmu]

runs fine on

2500+ barton
a7n8x del
6600gt
underpowered

[dshepsman]

P4 2.8ghz (1mb ver)
1gb PC3200 Ram
6600GT
1028 x 768

no major problems at all (cept for the loading IF - nuthin can change that) and looks great
may try pumping up the AA etc at some point

Thanks for all the replys, looks like ill be getting 2gb ram (2x 1024mb) instead of 1gb. So should run all the better!
