One of my cousins got World of Warcraft for Xmas and the computer they have is about 6 years old. It won't run it. Can't build itself myself this cheap without going through a lot of hassle. Have looked at Craigslist, but a pain to sift through. Looking for a machine that will run it decently with following specs:

- P4-2.0, 512MB, 60GB or higher (hyperthreading desired)
- 128MB Video Card or higher (send me manufacturer / model number.)
- Legit license for Windows XP Home or Pro
- Keyboard, mouse, monitor or speakers not needed ... just the system itself.
- Tower setup (no desktops or laptops plz)
- $200-$300 price range.

PM me with details.

His life will only be devastated by WoW ... do him a favor and do not go through with this purchase.

you'd be hard pressed to get this computer seeing as windows xp home is $99 by itself.

tho, if someone does wanna sell a hyperthreaded 2.0+ w/ a 128 vid card, with a mobo, case, power supply, ram, and a hdd for $100, PM Me First!

While this is tww, where stuff is sold for pennies on the dollar, you may be expecting a little too much for your price range.

you can get nib agp 256 mb cards for under 75, 130 or so for 512 mb, and thats for decent cards, i would offer my box but i dont think you want the PITA that is watercooling

Plz get out of my thread if you think a desktop and tower are the same thing.

Actually, I bought someting off of Craigslist last summer close to these specs for $250 with monitor, keyboard and mouse and Windows XP Home. Video card I'm not too overly concerned about ... just don't want an 8MB or low-end POS that will only do 5fps.

how many computers w/ the specs you specified are made in a horizontal desk top(under teh monitor) case anyways? tower's are desktops cause you have them next to a desk with either a crt, or an lcd on* the desk, with a mouse on* the desktop as well - bottom line, if you use an external monitor, mouse, and keyboard setup on a stationary desk-like surface, it's a desktop computer. the tower is one part of a desktop computer, similar to a cpu being part of a computer, and not referencing the whole.
