Wow is a pretty damn old game so you'd definately not have to worry about frame rates, however it kind of CPU dependant so if you wish to get better fps you could invest in a quad core cpu.

tl;dr It's fine for wow

Ninji, WoW does only support dual. So that quad you're talking about is worthless.

Replace the CPU and GPU with HD5670 and Athlon II X3. It shouldn't cost you more than 50$ more.

Except you're wrong.

alright, thanks for the help guys

Go with the quad core all it takes is a bit of editing to the process affinity mask and it's fully compatible.

In a 25man that thing would lag -_- it's just a dual core with a very bad graphics card.
Pumping up the settings anything past Fair/Good + higher resolutions = sloooow
I'd take Haxartus's advice at minimum.
