That is the computer.

That is the motherboard.

AFAIK, just plays WoW, just looking for any type of dedicated VGA to run instead of the onboard.

I don't have much more info, she is not very savvy and I don't have the computer in front of me for anymore info. Just looking for a direction to go in..

Thoughts?

Although a dedicative gpu is always preferable, i am not really sure how much better will be from that cpu she got. WoW is not gpu/graphics heavy but cpu heavy and this an APU, weak cpu. Would help to know what resolution she is playing too, the higher it is the more benefit she will get from a gpu.

Maybe, it's $70 but probably the best your gonna get on that machine. But you are starting with a pretty low end machine.

1680 x 1050 is what she said shes playing with.

weird.

As the budget is non-existant, I think a new MB/CPU would be out of the question. She seems hesitant when I mentioned a $100 budget on a gpu.

The APU already has a GPU built in. Save your money or get a bigger budget.
