I recently purchased this machine... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227027.
And I was just wondering what upgrades I should buy so that it can run WoW without any lag on highest settings. I'm thinking about getting more memory, but I don't know much about computers, so can this computer get more Memory? Please give links to upgrades. Please and thank you.

Ugh for some reason both links don't go straight to the computer, but it is the cheapest computer on that page.

Ughh, you really need a video card upgrade. That LE (lame edition) really sucks in games.
Very cheap/best-bang for the buck option: Geforce 8400GS

Better option: 8600GT (especially factory overclocked version) If that 400W power supply has 16amps or more on the +12V rail, it should be fine.
Awesome: 8800 series but you would need a bigger power supply; 25 to 30 amps on +12V rail because 8800GTS draws up to 9 amps.
For RAM, 2x1Gb is great w/ Vista.

first of all, what else do you need the computer to do, besides wow? Delete all the random free stuff that comes on that you don't need, but make sure the computer can run without it...then just buy extra memory...Anymore questions, check out Custom Computers Unlimited. They are awsome when it comes to customer service...they give you exactly what you need/want.

looks like you need more RAM. buy more of the same DDR2 ram to max it out to either 2, 4, or 8 gigs. whatever your machine will hold. use newegg to buy more ram and crucial.com to find out what you need
