   world of warcraft

   well man it looks like your using an on board graphics chip….which is not recommended for games at all
   if you have turned down your settings as low as they go and it still runs like crap you need a Video Card

   for wow you can get one realitively cheap
   i had a GeForce 7600 GS and it ran perfectly

   just make sure you find out which slot you have first (pci-express (pci-e)
   or AGP)

   You don’t even have a video card you have a cheap video chip thats on the motherboard thats not DESIGNED FOR GAMING. Depending on your slot (agp or pci xpress) you need to upgrade someone mentioned 7600gs would be a good cheap upgrade for either agp or pci xpress

   The problem you are having is caused by the fact that you have an integrated video card. The only way to fix it is either turn off as many un-needed services or turn down the graphics within the game. Reduce graphics to 24 bit 1x sampling. You want to make sure your frame rates stay above 30 fps.

   First of all you DO KNOW that World of warcraft is ONLY an ONLINE GAME (right?) You cannot just load it and play it as a stand alone or solo game. You need your computer connected to the internet.

   IF YOU ARE CONNECTED and what you are saying is that the game plays s-l-o-w-l-y then YES, I understand. It’s usually caused by one of several problems:

   ( 1 ) You are using a slow dial up telephone line with a modem, this is the slowest play.

   BUT if you have DSL or Cable or satelite and a FAST CONNECTION, then you might be having a problem with what’s called computer throughput.

   (Throughput) is how fast information (data) can transfer through your system and out into wherever (Modem line) to the internet. I hate to say it but sometimes you might have to have a PC tech look at your system to see if this is the cause.

   If you are playing other online games is the game play fast or is it only slow with World of Warcraft???

   Your processor looks to be fast enough, and you have PLENTY of RAM memory so I doubt that is the problem.

   also here’s a link that is supposed to be a FREE computer troubleshooting service, you might try it, just make sure they do not CHARGE you anything!

   Hope this helps!

   Hi there,

   There are a host of programs and resources out there that should enable you to run WoW even with an integrated graphics card. Checkout hiddenstuff.com’s pc optimization guide. I used it on my computer with a similar setup (integrated card) and it works great now.

   Otherwise, considering that your computer takes PCI-E cards you should look into a Nvidia 6800 card. Why this card? Because its cheap (you can get one for about $40-50) and it has low power supply requirements. Which means that you will not need to upgrade your comps power supply which I’m guessing is only about ~350 watt…

   hope this helps!
