Running WoW at 1920x1200

[Chopstick217]

My system is listed below. Ive been playing WoW at 1680x1050 for the past 1-2 yrs. However, i plan on upgrading my lcd to a 24 inch. I was wondering if anyone knows what performance ill get if i run WoW at max settings and 1920x1200. Thanks in advance.

You'll get decent performance. I suggest that you overclock a bit to increase processor performance and don't lag up your network connection.

You'll be just fine. WoW isn't that intensive.

Enjoy your new screen realestate! Your computer will run that in WoW without breaking a sweat!

Nice rig by the way!

I have an X2 3800+ at 2.5ghz and a 7800gtx. WoW runs like butter on 1920x1200 with max settings. You should be fine.

Thanks for all the replies guys, i appreciate it.

X2 3800 @ 2.5GHz is more than enough to almost negate most CPU bottlenecks, I don't know how CPU intensive WoW is, if it is CPU intensive or especially single core CPU intensive, then oc to 2.4 or above, else it maybe fine.

To check whether there is a GPU bottleneck or not, use your current res but use 4x/8x AA and max AF etc, that will tell you.

WoW is quite CPU intensive, but he should still be OK.

Does it use dual cores?

You're MORE than OK with WoW. I ran it at 1920x1200 on my laptop without any problems whatsoever (almost all maxed settings)... and it's only a PM2.0, 2GB ram, and 6800Ultra Go.

If you can run it on a PM 2.0GHz lappy on a Go 6800Ultra @ 1920x1200, this means that it is hardly intensive.
