If you are interested in purchasing and playing World of Warcraft’s Wrath of the Lich King, you should be aware of the fact that there are minimum system requirements that your computer and internet connection must meet in order to play. As with any type of video game, you need to have the right video cards, sound cards, virtual memory space, and hard drive space. Here, you’ll learn exactly what Blizzard Entertainment says are the minimum system requirements when it comes to playing Wrath of the Lich King.

If you have a Windows-based operating system, you must ensure that it is Windows XP with Service Pack 3 installed or Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 installed. When it comes to the system processor, it is best to have one that is Dual-Core or better, and it should be the popular AMD Anthon XP with 1500 plus or the Intel Pentium which is a “4” and runs at 1.3 GHz. The absolute minimum when it comes to memory is 512 MB of RAM on XP, but at least 1 GB on Vista. To optimize the game, XP players should have at least 1 GB of RAM and Vista players should have at least 2 GB of RAM.

When it comes to system video and sound, there are many different things to consider. A 3D-based graphics card designed for gaming in terms of image transformation, lighting, and more is highly recommended when it comes to the graphics you’ll encounter in World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King. As far as sound is concerned, the motherboard of the system must have the ability to produce sound and must be able to reproduce as far as DirectX compatibility.

If you find that your system does not meet the system requirements, it is important to upgrade or purchase a new system so that you can experience the best World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King gaming experience.
