So I am looking to upgrade my girlfriends PC. We primarily play Wow and this PC really struggles to run it at even medium settings. I am thinking the Video card may be the problem but I figured I might as well ask some of the experts. I have some room in the case but not a ton though if im replacing the video card the GTS 450 is pretty big so I can likely fit anything of that size or smaller.
Id like to keep whatever the best upgrades I can get to around $200 $250 at the most though if that's not possible the closest suggestions to that price would be welcomed.
