Can an optiplex gx270 run wow?

I need a cheap second computer to play world of warcraft on and there seems to be a lot of gx270's or similar on ebay. Does anyone know if these are capable of running warcraft - If not any suggestions on a cheap computer (£100 ish) to just run warcraft?

heres an example im looking at -

Yes. The PC I was using before the one I just finished building was an Optiplex GX270 with 2g ram and an agp ATI 9550. Ran WoW with no problems. I turned a couple things off graphically, but before that there was very little lag. I just turned off stuff I didn't care for like ground clutter.

You are right PR2. I hadn't taken into account I already had that video card when I got that PC. I apologize for that part of my answer. With relatively low money, that 270 is capable of running WoW with little problems.

maybe single player questing but forget going into a major city.

if you're looking at used dell systems, you should look at newer optiplex systems like the 320, gx620, 740, 745. Those have PCI express so you can add a video card as long as it doesn't require 450w or greater psu, you should be fine.

gx270's are older and most upgrades to them are more expensive. they take ddr ram, which is pretty much 2x's as much as most ddr2, and they have either pci or agp which finding a good video card can be rough.
