Anyone have any idea how poorly (or goodly) WoW will run with a P4 2.0, 1 G RAM, and a Ti4200? I know that well surpasses the minimum requirements, but I don't put much stock in that.

I've got an 2.0gHz athalon, and 9700pro, 1G RAM, and it runs just great at 1600x1200, only time I get video lag is when I run through the IF bank/AH area the first time.

2.0 gig
512 ram
GeForce2 32mb card
I lag some places, like in the sky and in AH the first time, but otherwise, I'm cool.

1.4ghz 512ddr Geforce2 MX400!!!!
And it still runs pretty great.
I'm amazed I havent reallly had to upgrade.
Granted i do run on all the minimum settings for everything.
But still, smooth as buttah the majority of the time.

if you're playing with 256mb of ram you're gonna feel the lag in the big cities like SW and IF. and sometimes out in the wilderness when it's loading stuff.
tried playing on both 256mb and 512mb ram machines with similar hardware and the 512 one was waaaay smoother even tho it had a worse video card.

Runs flawlessly for me, except after I port it lags out for a second as I reenter the zone.
XP 2100 (1.7Ghz)
1.5Gb RAM
Radeon 9600XT @ 1280 x 1024
Maxed out settings for everything.

My brother runs it without problems on a P3 666MHz with a GeForce 1 card and 512MB of RAM. Of course, he can only play in 800x600, but that should tell you about minimum requirements 
As long as you have a 3D accelerator and 512+ RAM, you're gtg. P4 2.4 at work has an onboard video card and 256MB of 533MHz RAM and I get worse frame rates than the P3 above.
