It doesn't get hot or have any noticeable problems, but I'm still going to get a power source from Compaq.

Considering I get it to play the game I want at highest settings, with good sound, and does everything else I want my computer to do, the end amount spent of $600-650 (650 if I count the power source waste) I think I made out pretty good.
I suppouse, but WOW is a 4 year old game...I mean it still looks decent, but not exactly cutting edge anymore...thats almost like saying the Gamecube is a powerhorse...
