How well would WoW run with this setup? And any other graphics cards for under £50 that could perform better?

AMD Phenom 555 X2 3.3GHz
4GB DDR3 RAM
XFX ATI Radeon HD 5450 1024MB DDR2

Thanks,

WoW usualy uses the CPU more then the GPU, but have you checked out the ATi 5770?, I think they usualy go cheap second hand, and there pretty good
 
Same set up as me accept i have a 5770, i run wow at 1680x1050 at about 40 -70 fps in 10 man content on Good/high settings with 4x aa on and shadows to. MY machine Runs wow perfect for me, not really fussed about maxing wow out, it looks no different from my current settings. Also able to run most current games pretty well to. Hope this helps

Just another thing, when i updraded my graphics card from a 9600gt to ati 5770 i saw no performance boost what so ever, im pretty sure wow is all about cpu power so an average gpu card like a 5450 will be fine if thats your budget.

WoW has a hugely scalable engine, age has nothing to do with it.

If you want to ramp it up to full you will need a more than decent system.

WoW will run on some of the lowest hardware you can imagine, "Will it run?" is not the question you should be asking it is "How do I want to run it"
