AMD Equivalent for i5 750/760?

[Skott]

Faster (or overclocked) CPUs are beneficial for WoW:

Thanks for that info. I been hearing every where I read WoW is more about CPU than GPU. This just reinforces that.

sure they are ??

a corvette is beneficial too if you wanna go 180 mph on the highway

If Skott has 1000$ to spend for the best core i7 and another 1000$ for the best video card, his daughter will probably get 180 fps playing WoW..........

No, if I spend $2K for a CPU and GPU I'll be damned if she gets it. I'd keep it for myself. ;-)

look,

i played WoW 4 years ago for 6 months when it was released, and it was smooth. I was far behind the cpu and graphic cards we have nowadays.

Sorry, but i just don't see how WoW is a demanding video games.

If you have a high speed internet connection, a very good hard drive or SSD even better, Phenom 2 X2 and 4800 serie video card, i stick to what i claim, the game will run just fine, and much better than for me 4 years ago.
