The Good,Cheap,and Functional

HI guys!! It's been a while ever since I posted 1 of these. Been busy with school work and i've also been playing World of Warcraft.
I wanted to know what computer is affordable for me to play WoW.
I just want to get a decent 30-40 fps
I saw that the Dell XPS does a perfect job with that but its 899$+
I also saw the Dell Inspiron E3350 (i think) and its 650$ way much affordable.

Do you play wow?
What pc do you play on?

Get a dual core AMD processor like the 5000+ (i dont like AMD but they are decent and cheap) like 2 gigs of ram, and get a 8600 GT 512mb graphics card, then just probably a 500 GB HD and the other essentials like a psu (needs to be 500+) and CD drive and mobo of course lol. But int hat price range 400-500 is very reasonable and it will completely own WoW and get a good 30 fps in dalaran and 40+ just about any other time.

hope it helps =D; ▶ Reply to This
