Ideally since wow is a more CPU intensive game an i7 would be what you want but they can be a bit prohibitive cost wise. This is of course if you plan to go only Intel. You might also consider looking at some of the AMD chip sets if your looking to save a few dollars.

Pff. My i3 can run WoW just fine on medium settings+bloom mod+firefox/msn/etc running in the middle of a 25 man. As long as you have a dual core and a decent video card (i.e. not integrated) you really don't have to worry about WoW.
