Will I suffer lag or crashes?

    your system meets the technical requirments, but i think you would suffer some lag due to the fact that you have PC100 ram. not sure though, but i would deffinitely recommend upgrading to 512megs of DDR if you can

    You will do fine with the 5200 128mb. i have the 64 mb version and can play with everything on medium, or some stuff on high and others on low.i would upgrade that RAM though to at least 512 DDR.

    My RAM is PC-100............its NOT DDR, its SDRAM ::::15::

    Question for everyone playing WoW, do you suffer any lag? what are your system specs?

    If you can add a 256mb stick, do it, but I'd recommend adding a 512mb or even 1gig stick if your mobo supports it.

    My mobo only supports 512 SDRAM (256 twin sticks)
    Its a pain in the ass to find SDRAM PC-100 sticks

    THX!!!!!!
    I know you are recommending 512...........but is it really necessary???

  • bukshotbukshot Member Posts: 277

    My PC specs are almost the same.

    1.8 Ghz Amd

    512mb ram (not sure what kind)

    I have the same video card.

    I get lag in some places, mostly big cities. However, I hear almost everyone saying it happens to them too.

    you really should get more ram, not sure if the kind matter.

    You will defenitly be able to play with what you have though

    Yes, you will. And the difference in price between a 128mb and 256mb stick is so negligible as to make buying a 128mb stick an act of gross stupidity.

    Actual 128 stick + the new one (256)

    You've lost me, so I'll just put it like this and then leave the thread:

    Do whatever it takes to arrive at a situation where you have 512 megabytes of RAM inside your computer.
