I am buying a new computer, this is the one I have in mind:
Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit)
AMD Phenom(TM) II X4 920 quad-core processor [2.8GHz, 2MB L2 + 6MB L3 shared, up to 4000MT/s]
8GB DDR2-800MHz SDRAM [4 DIMMs]
640GB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive
1GB NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 [DVI, HDMI, VGA]
Monitor 1920 x 1080p
350W power supply
The thing is I want to do everyday kinds of stuff on it, but on the other hand I also want it to last long and be able to play WoW on it. I am afraid that the graphics card does not meet the potential of the rest of the system. The GT 220 is a $60 upgrade from the other options that come with the computer, the highest priced one I am willing to upgrade to. The only other semi-acceptable option is the ATI Radeon HD 4650. So, my question is what should I do; buy my own graphics card ($75 under range) or stick with this one. I am already at the top of my budget.
Any input/recommendations are appreciated.
Thanks
