Hey guys,
I'm going to be in the market for a new desktop in the next few months. I'm really leaning towards a 24 inch iMac. (Hopefully after a revision which per the buyer's guide it's overdue for.) I bought my first Mac about 3 years ago (14 inch iBook) and have been an Apple fan ever since. My old HP tower has a 256 video card in it, but I'm needing a new desktop as it is, and I'm going to replace it with a Mac.
I know the BTO option in them has a 256 video card available and was wondering if anyone had played WoW on a 24 incher with that card and how the performance of it was. I'm just wondering about how the resolution and frame rates are for the game on such a large screen and only 256 megs worth of video ram pushing it all. Granted, a 256 is a decent sized card, but I'd rather save some $ and go with the iMac than to get a Mac Pro (which is really more than I need) with a 512 card and then have to buy a monitor on top of that (current monitor is showing its age).
Would appreciate any advice you guys have. Thanks guys.
