My desktop with 512MB of memory and a GF4Ti4600 128MB runs it fine mostly at medium settings, though it goes down to .5 FPS when I first enter Orgrimmar by fast travel (but picks up to a playable-in-non-combat 14-20 FPS after a few seconds), and has an unexplainable drop to 5 FPS in Crossroads. Also, I've noticed that the game seems to be in texture-memory-saving mode, as the terrain is composed of 40 meterx40 meter blocks of texture without transition and sometimes player models are white. I get my laptop (Radeon 9000 512MB,1GB system memory) back tomorrow; I can't wait for WoW to look pretty again, not to mention being able to check thottbot while I play.

I think every computer will lag when you enter that shitty town.

Twenty-eight days... six hours... forty-two minutes... twelve seconds. That, is when the world will end.

I see.

Your gfx card is what i'm getting, WW. Or a raedon 128. I know my gfx card is going to run it fine, and if not then i'll get something with 164, but my memory is whats going to be killing me.

When i get WoW, i'm going to definitly delete Diablo II Multiplayer Installation(With Xpac) and WarcraftIII ( With Frozen Throne)

Would that help the WoW running process greatly?

Also how many gigs does WoW take up approximatly.

Thanks!

Clearing up hard-drive space won't help things run faster.. unless you have like some tiny amount of free space (under 500 megs or something)

Actually, Org is better than XR, it just needs time to load up if you approach too fast. XR is constantly low FPS.
