card for wow

[Amleto]

Wife's amd 4770 is on the blink and looking for a budget+ replacement. Wow min specs states very old cards so looking for some modern suggestions

FYI She has dual 22" monitors.

Whats your budget?
What's her PSU
1050Ti perhaps? Or second hand card?

Try AMD's

or the AMD560 if you want to spend a bit more. No need to change drivers from her 4770 AMD setup

Was expecting to pay up to £50 with £75 definitely being too much.

PSU... can't remember. It's a non-issue for the level of cards we're looking it. Will update when she's had a chance to look as shes on comp atm.

Wow is a CPU hog so bare in mind you will need a decent card to run it to cater for this

What? This makes no sense to me, I must be totally missing your point.

wow does use the cpu more yes. So as long as you turn down shadows to low you can get away with most cards to run it with.

my wifes old system for wow was a i5 2500 3.3ghz and an amd 7850 that ran fine for her with low shadows.

For that budget I'd look in the MM to pick something decent up.

Turns out it's not the gfx card - put an old 4650/4630 in it just to get by and the monitor stops displaying just like when the other gfx card was in. Tried another dvi cable too...

Anyway, thanks for the tips.
