1. Same exact computer I have and I would say it's great. I didn't have any problems with it, and WoW runs pretty well. The only problem is the video card! I would suggest spending an extra $140 for a graphics card and you should be set. I returned my laptop just to get this computer.
2. do you expect me to read that any way you probly just need a new graphic card but that quite and expence thats why i dont play wow or neverwinternights 2 but thats besides the point just get a new graphics card
3. its definitely good enough for all the good games out there. something i like to do when it comes to upgrading computers is to buy the 2nd best parts/systems on the market, instead of the top-of-the-line stuff. this is because the amount of money you will save is huge and its every few months computers (and parts) get upgraded, making the previous stuff way cheaper. Sorry this may be a little confusing... bottom line: Don't buy the top of the line cpu parts, buy the ones 1 step down and you will save, since computers progress RAPIDLY and outdated parts DROP, cost-wise.
