Okay, well, the story is, I need a dedicated machine for running 3 copies of World of Warcraft at or above 25 fps at the same time.
I was looking at the AMD dual cores, because they have gotten SO cheap. But, my thing is, I don't really know how far I need to go into performance to remain as cheap as possible. I've been out of the loop for a while, and kind of had a couple quick questions that might be somewhat repetitive to some of you, and for that I apologize.
For an AMD 4000+ x2, $60...Would that be enough? Would I really need to step up to like an e4400 or something along the C2D line, or would this work? The mobo to pair with it would obviously be one of the low-mid budget mobos that will just -work-, nothing fancy.
Best GPU for the money now (but must meet the initial qualifications): would a 7900gs be a decent candidate for $100?
As for RAM, would I need to get 2gb or step up to 4? Ram is getting so cheap nowadays, and I know I can only utilize around 3.5 gbs, but still?
Again, I apologize for the repetitive nature, it just seems as though prices on everything have recently gone haywire, and I'm just seeking the best bang for the buck.
Thanks.
