I'm contemplating one of the Dell 24" LCD deals. Is there any chance that World of Warcraft would run acceptably at 1920x1200 on a dual 2.5 with the stock radeon 9600xt?

Survey says.... 4-5FPS in IF. Probably would be choppy in most places. Would be better with a faster card, of course.

No chance at all, my good man. But it's not like you're limited to that rez...you can still run at a lower one, it'll just look worse than on a CRT. I have one hooked up to my PC t…

Thanks for the replies. I think I will give it a try, perhaps at a lower resolution. Does the dell monitor automatically stretch a resolution to fit the screen? Or is there a se…

I think the Dell displays may allow both.

I'd invest in a new card. My Radeon 9600 @ 1600x1200 is already pretty bad.

I play on my Dual 2.0 G5 and my PC and it runs just fine on my 23" CD at 1920x1200. Mike

How much RAM? 2GB here. That's probably your problem. Mike

What video card do you have? Quote: Originally Posted by starman I play on my Dual 2.0 G5 and my PC and it runs just fine on my 23" CD at 1920x1200. Mike

9600

Ok, I just logged into the game. The lowest I got in IF was 11 fps, but it averages around 19. Outside, I got a full 30. There has to be something wrong with your system. I've been…

Sweet, I'll hope for the best when the 24-incher arrives. Do you have all the video settings in WoW turned down low?

No, all default.

Something is definitely wrong here.. pick a couple favorite indoor/outdoor locations and mail me a screenshot of the FPS you are getting there, for extra credit put Activity Monito…
