I lag a bit in WoW. Got any ways to make my computer faster for WoW? Please and thanks.

It's alsoabout the connection speed to the internet as well as your computer. You need to close all other programs when playing on the game that may be hogging internet bandwidth. Having a clean up of your computer could really help so have a look at this article which tells you how to Clean Up and Speed Up your computer.

Be sure to turn your ingame settings down to the lowest - that should GREATLY increase your performance.

uhm its lowest. I think I need a new Ram card. What do you guys suggest me get? I already have a 160gb Drive (E: Drive) for more memory I guess I need a better Ram memory card? Can you guys tell me which one I should get because I want a cheap and good one for my Dell.

That one looks all right. Anyone got any idea?

You need to match your motherboard specs very carefully with RAM.

Speed; pins; etc.

That link you posted is for a laptop. Do you have a laptop?

Also it is difficult to mix RAM. For best results you want matching sticks.

Anyway there are several scans available just to give you an idea.

Such as:

What does it show you? I am not suggesting you get Crucial but it will give an idea of what you need.

You can use CPU_Z under SPD to find out what you already have.

How much ram do you currently have?

If you have 512MB, you will definately want another 512 (1gig total) at least.

I use 1 gig and can run 2-3 copies of wow at a time. So if you have 1 gb, i dont think you will need anymore.
