I used to play WoW like you, but then I ...I cant do it I played WoW on and off , but most recently I stopped playing in may or so, cant see ever going back again, I also agree that if you have the time and resources to play 2 mmos more power to you, I have done it on numerous occasions.

I really like the space combat as well.

If I had to buy one today I would get the Star Wars edition, but lucky for me my molten edition is doing well, I still have a Logitech mx518 for a backup just in case.

it will be shut down by then. I think it will be F2P in about a week... give or take 3 days or so. There is no way this game can survive in its current model

agreed... it was a good run, is it the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end ? you decide.

I would suggest the Thrawn Trilogy, they are very well written and if you have seen the movies then it is a good place to start. I recently read the Darth Bane trilogy as well, thought it was decent... oh and I like the first few X-Wing books as well.

If you are looking at medium settings any one of the cards that you have listed should likely do the trick, the 450 would be the card I would recommend however.

it would run the game, but personally I wouldnt use anything over medium settings with a card like that.

if you purchased it direct from Alienware I would let them know it is not what you thought it would be and send it back for something with a better card in it. If you purchased it secondhand then... I got nothing for ya.

How long ago did you purchase the unit ?

Isnt the M17x a laptop?

I was Boneghost/Felithan on Nathrezim... used to be in Depraved guild.
