hello ive had my pc since wrath and ont he lowest settings i get about 15-20 fps in arena(mainly all i play) or dungeons similar. i found this cyberpower pc on amazon for about$1030 which is perfect for my budget it comes with a radeon rx 5500 8 gb video card and an intel core i5 9400f processor. im wondering is that going to be good enough to play wow at low to medium settings if all i really do is dungeons/arena? it also comes with a 240gb ssd and 1TB HDD. thank you for the help. i would leave a link to the pc but it wont let me
It will run WoW at high or max settings no problem. What site are you using though, might be able to find a better build for the price.
i just used amazon should i go to newegg?

This is a good pre-built around the same price. I would avoid the i5 9600k (6 cores 6 threads in 2020?) and that rx 5500xt isn’t the best performer either. My suggestion will perform much better.
Another good idea would be a similar build with an i5 10600k, it’ll cost a bit more but it’s worth it.
thank you I will buy this one instead
Large core and thread counts are not a real benefit to wow at all. Given the age of the base code and the fact blizz hasn’t parallelised the code much single core speed is still king for wow.
Other games are a different story though.
