Just want to know if its good

[umar rehman]

im wondering if the ati radeon 4890 is a good gfx card because i can get it cheap. im going to mainly play worrld of warcraft and league of legends. would i get good frame rates on the highest settings?

Depends on how much you're getting it for... WOW is CPU intensive especially in big raids.

To answer your question though, the 4890 will be fine just no DX11.

Hope this helps.

How much is cheap?

What resolution is your monitor?

What cpu do you have?

What power supply?

You need to consider all these things.

WOW with G620 with 5870... you can expect lower fps but definitely playable.

are these on ultra settings

I don't know, it doesn't say... probably safe to assue the the settings are pretty high though. You'll be fine but here are some other benchmarks to help you feel better~
