I love it when people spout off opinions, and someone comes up behind em with reviews and benchmarks lol. Well of course Intel is better than AMD... anyone spending any amount of time at all doing research before buying a new processor will quickly figure that one out. It's like comparing a Pinto (AMD) to a Rolls Royce (Intel).

You absolutely do not need to spend an arm and a leg to get good performance in WoW. You just don't. I spent under 800 bucks on mine, and my boyfriend spent over a thousand on his (higher end machine too) and my system out-performs his. I even run on Vista, too lol (not a single crash or blue screen in two years).

This is what I paid for mine two years ago, and I still get awesome FPS in game.
