Quick PC spec question for 5man

[buraot]

I use my laptop for my 4 alts and wondering if I should buy this desktop for $150 for my main alt

Intel Pentium 4 2.8ghz,
512MB RAM
80GB HD
GeForce FX 5200 with 128MB VRAM

is this cheap?
will i have problems running wotlk?

your "main alt"? you mean your main?

I wouldnt. for about $400, you can get a way better performing substandard system using last year's technology instead of last decade's technology.
from your system i would gather that you can run WoW at 800x600 and get about 10-15 fps... oh wait, ram is 512megs... lets go down to 10 fps.
is the videocard able to do 3-d graphics?

sometimes you get what you pay for. i wouldn't touch it unless i really really really need it... for word processing.

You could do a LOT better.
