OcUK world of warcraft PC's (not really optimised)

exotic444 · 22 Nov 2010 at 19:37

I was looking at the computers for the new world of warcraft expansion and I just realized none of the PC's available have SSD's.

World of warcraft is a massive game and IMO if optimising needs a SSD to increase load times, increase install time and reduce lagg going into new area's ect so everything loads quick ingame.

Anyways just my thoughts, what do you think guys.

There is an option for SSD when choosing your purchase...

yeah i know If your paying over £1000 I would expect it to come with the PC already for WoW, not everyone knows what SSD's are about, what happens when a noob goes to buy a PC and he wants to buy pre-built cata pc and he pays over a grand and doesnt even get SSD. Also if your paying for a PC specifcally for world of warcraft should come standard IMO

None of the PC's come with a Monitor,OS, Mouse, Keyboard......Should a £1100+ system have them included? I don't think so as the buyer may already have their own to use. It keeps the cost of the system down and its not rocket science to include it if its required as it all comes pre built.

I challenge to find superior specced systems for the price. Bearing in mind the build process and warranty costs.

As mentioned earler not everyone has jumped on the SSD bandwagon yet and 90% of people who buy systems would prefer larger storage and peace of mind (that they never run out of space) then booting into Windows faster or loading that level a few seconds quicker.

To call them unoptimised over something that available as an option is kind of pointless. And the points raised about not including monitor, keyboard etc. Give me a break most of them are available as options and do note these are pre-built systems not pre-built complete systems.

maybe you should call it pre-built tower with options for optimizations ?

I think you misunderstood, i believe he was being sarcastic towards the OP
