Xfeg Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 My nephew got either http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227064 or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227086 and it works just fine for him. It was the best computer for gaming he could afford with his birthday money. So far no problems...
Mandy4Matt Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 Valentine..I am an avid wow player..blush! Just wanted to let you know I think with the new xpac you are required to have a dvd player to install it. Shannon
Xfeg Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 You can download it so technically you dont need a drive at all... if i remember correctly
fairydustcrissy Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 You can download it if you buy it from the blizzard site, but it wont be avail. immediately. Or, you can install it with your key, then you always have the option to download. And it doesnt take much for wow. I play on a 9ish year old computer. And because of the last patch, my HD is too small to load it So I have been playing on the $199 e-machine i got my kids last christmas. really, anything you can buy from a big box retailer will run wow fine.
