CPU and video ftw

My experiences of many computers (through my role at work) and home builds has illustrated the incredible importance of CPU and video card.

I went from 1Gb to 3Gb of RAM on my current machine with almost no improvement in WoW fps.

I went from a decent video card to a dual core NVidia video card and it took my fps from 25fps to 45fps.

I'm looking to get a dual-core machine later in the year and will also have the opportunity to try Wow out on a quad-core CPU in a month or so.

The reason I keep mentioning CPU is have you noticed how the CPU is pegged out when Wow loads. Throw as much RAM as you want at it and this is still the case.

A friend of mine has a dual-core CPU and the machine feels 30% faster with all of the same mods installed.
