Geforce 440 and WoW

[andypearce]

Hey everyone,

Just a quick question, what graphics settings would I be able to run WoW on with a Gigabyte Geforce 440 card?

Thanks
Andy

What is your processor, memory, resolution and what addons do you use?

Processor - FX-4100
Memory - 8GB Kingston HyperX
Resolution - 1280x800

And what do you mean by add ons?

Given that WoW's sysreq's are pretty low, and given that I have a 440 with 1G of RAM/hexacore Phenom II 2.7 Ghz/16G RAM and can run the Diablo III open beta in 1920x1080 with everything turned up--if you have anything close to that you should be able to run WoW with high-to-max settings and have smooth sailing.

Well, considering you don't know what's addons, means you don't have them It's World of Warcraft in game user interface modifications. They usually hurt performance. Anyway, I think you'll be able to max WoW out.

High-Ultra settings should be possible outside of 25man Dragon Soul or Firelands.

@Knight, Diablo3 beta is less graphically intensive than parts of WoW is. Diablo3 also uses a different graphics engine than WoW.
