upgrade from onboard to decent video card and I think it will be okay.

Note that with the sucky 7200RPM hard drive in it, you'll be hating life in Wintergrasp, Org/IF, Dalaran, etc. until the textures load. I can't tell from the specs whether this is PCI-Express 2.0 or not. I presume so but I can't confirm it. Also, note that is has NO normal PCI slots, so if you're thinking about moving your TV tuner PCI card, Audigy PCI or anything else that uses a PCI slot, you're out of luck.

What is a good hard drive?

WD Raptor 10k RPM SATA300 drives or the 250/120+ SSDs would be a huge step up. Raptors are cheap, SSDs are more expensive. All depends on how much money you have to burn.

For that money you could build a faster machine if you buy the parts.

On the other hand, if your a noob to pc`s or don`t bother it`s another story

@rethele - you'll be pushing that power supply pretty hard. It should work finde , but little/no room for expanding your video card later.
