That's a bit on the slow side for WoW, especially with the expansion coming up. The game requires a significant amount of processing power. Also, Nvidia cards currently offer a big performance boost in WoW compared to cards by ATI. Not that you can't raid with Radeon (I do), but it's something to consider when you're buying new hardware.

Are you looking for a budget computer?

About the graphics card, I wouldn't buy a crippled version. And like Synti said (also stated by a blue) WoW is a CPU game. It's the processor that gives the frame rates, so you might want to spend a few extra gold coins on that. I have Intel i7 and haven't had any performance problems.

Other than that it seems pretty decent. Perhaps a bit more memory. Let's say a kit of 6GB DDR3 1600Mhz or something like that.
