so for the Original poster.. none of these people giving you suggestions obviously play wow.. or have played in quite sometime... obviously based on facts.. they do not have a clue what they are talking about. I have a high end system.. and according to some of these posts.. my system should be able to run space shuttle launches, and sit in as a back up system for NORAD... considering 1 GTX 260 will do everything these people are claiming.. i have 3 of them and have yet to see anywhere close to these claims. and yes i have returned all three to the store 2x .. so that is... 6 different cards.... what are the chances i have recieved 6 faulty cards in a row..... my thoughts exactly... I have returned the motherboard, i have returned the ram, i have upgrade to windows 7 64bit, i have reinstalled windows over 10 times. i have reinstalled video drivers so many times i cant begin to try and remember how many times at this point. I have run on 1 card, 2 cards.. all three cards. Nothing, absolutly nothing shows me or anyone else associated with this build that anything is to blame except piss poor quality and way over hyped product results in regards to these crappy GTX 260's. I had people tell me.. over clock that Q9550.. thats the problem your processor is to weak to run those cards at 2.8ghz.. i purchased a water cooler and jacked it up to 4ghz... same FPS! shitty cards period.
use the facts people provide.. the benchmarks provided did not specify exact settings of the game.. nor if these tests were run on a private server... when it comes to wow i have found that no one really knows.. and the only people who care to respond are people that do not play the game or do not play anymore. Like the 10 year old who posted below me, obviously showing off the card his mother got him for christmas so he could wow it up on the game card that came in his stocking.
so lets see some hard evidence.. facts, pictures.. documents.. of real time gamers in extreme raid environments blazing over 60 fps.. if that data is provided.. i will buy that card.. right now.
