Im having a lag problem with world of warcraft. The frame rate drops to 8-18fps when outdoors. I guess its the ram that is slowing the system down. The rest of the system appears to be above the recommend spec. Would upgrading to 1GB of ram solve the frame rate issue? any advice would be helpful.
Here are my specs:
Intel Pentium 4 3.0Ghz
512Mb DDR RAM
ATI Radeon 9600 XT
160Gb HDD
8mbps DSL connection.

512 won't be enough for any modern game. MedalOfHonor (released 2003) uses about 850MB memory.
The vid card is also too short. I have the same on an old computer, and it cannot stand recent games, even at low graphic settings.

Click CTRL + ALT + DEL and close all the Applications before playing. 512 MB RAM Should be enough for WOW.

lol i have 512 mb and i can play WoW fine even on high details and i only had (now have a good game card) the card that came with the comp and it runs fine. WoW is prolly the most easiest game to run out of all the modern games out.
