    Basically I'm curious if this PC can handle WoW (World or Warcraft) easily.
    I'll provide the games requirements and the PC specs.

    Theres the PC.
    I'll be upgrading to a 512mb graphics card in about a month.
    So I'm curious if the 256mb onboard <b>Shared</b> will be enough for now.
    If it can handle 3D etc.
    It's a new PC with Vista.. so..

    WoW Burning Crusade expansion req:
    Minimum PC System Requirements

    PC Processor Type- Intel® Pentium® III processor, AMD Athlon™ processor
    PC Processor Speed- 800MHz
    PC System Memory- 512MB RAM
    PC Video- 32MB 3D hardware transform and lighting-capable video card
    --------------------
    Then Regular WoW req:
    Minimum PC System Requirements

    PC Processor Type- Intel® Pentium® III processor, AMD Athlon™ processor
    PC Processor Speed- 800MHz
    PC System Memory- 256MB RAM
    PC Video- 32MB 3D video card with hardware T&L support

    Will it play just fine until I get the new card?
    The shared thing worries me..

    Yes the onboard graphics should handle. Just make sure you have at least 512 ram for the game.
