Well, the night before 2010 starts and my computer decides it wants to break. so it won't work at all, think its fried from being over-used. so i've had to buy a new computer which has been ordered today. It should arrive in the next 4-5 working days ''or so it said'' so im hoping that by next friday i have a new computer everything up and sorted in which case i'l be back playing world of warcraft with no problems! it's one thing after another, im cursed honestly sigh :( fingers crossed it may come sooner.... :cry: really couldn't afford a new one like but what can you do i suppose :(

well - i finally found out what was wrong with my computer - part of the motherboard had broke, / went faulty - the graphics card, wireless card won't work when placed in - and anytime anything is socketed into that side of the motherboard the computer crashes instantly when coming on - comes up with something like #error547548758972########### and then blacks out on the screen with both red and green light on. so good thing i am getting a new one.

What Graphics cards does everyone else have out of curiosity, im just wondering if a Nvidia Geforce 8200 is good enough for wow? (or the least for it to run well)?

the 8200 will be dodgy..... on low resolution with low detail it might work but don't count on much..... It's basically the low-range card of 4 series ago.......
I usually run on an ATi 4850 but the nVidia 9700 in my laptop is okay-ish as well. Both run WoW at 1600*1024 windowed, the first one at full detail, the second at minimal detail (only range and spell detail turned up).

If you're looking for a new graphics card the new ATi series are the ones to get at the moment (nVidia seriously lagging behind in both performance and price/performance) with the 5770 and 5830 being the best bang for the buck.

The Radeon 4870 is just as fast but a bit cheaper. It does suck moar power tho and it's not DirectX 11 ready so yeah, go for the one Joy said.
