Currently I have:

What I Need comp for: Playing World of Warcraft, ideally on highest settings. Having multiple tabs open. Using one monitor. Since wow doesn't have crazy graphic requirements, I don't want to spend 900$ on a pc.

Currently, I am debating over these two bestbuy computers. Are they a big upgrade? Thank you

Neither one will be a BIG improvement. They both have a GT 635 gfx card. That's only a small step up from the on-die GPU you have now. You could get this gfx card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
...or this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

...and have a much faster gamer than either of those other two pre-built machines. THAT would be a BIG improvement.
