Right, ill try to make it short and sweet.
I want a new computer. A Pc which would play games such as: WoW, Cs and Halo without any lag or problems with the sound.
Which of these should My pc have as a graphics card so that it could do just that?

The third one.
It's best...

You'd also need more RAM on your computer to make games go faster...
Unless you have that already sorted.

It's fairly cheap to upgrade RAM anyway, so it shouldnt be too much hastle.

Would 1GB Ram, #3 on Graphics and arouynd 3 - 3.2GHz be a wise choice? What does ghz do anyway coz i found a pc with all that but ghz is 1.86

That's the processor you're talking about, not graphics.

your best of going for dual core now anyway as single cores are ponitless and games can use a core for it self and another core will be used to run background tasks .. delivrring more proformance to your games

CPU im on bout incase yuo dont know

You can get clock speeds in graphics cards but they don't matter as much, for example the memory and core clock speeds. It's the architecture that's important, e.g 24 Pixel Pipelines is better than 12 Pixel Pipelines.

1.8 would be slower than a 3.2. I am guessing your not talking about duo core :P.

I suggest you invest your money in a PC that will last longer than just current generation games so you dont have to buy another one next year or the year after ;).

Would 1 Gb Ram, 200 - 300 Gb Hard Disk, #3 Graphics Card and 1.86GHz with Intel core 2 duo be a good choice for a pc that could play WoW smoothly, and counterstrike...etc..

From what I've read, all these dual/duo CPU's out these days aren't as great as they seem.

Sure they're perfect for multi-tasking, but for gaming, you gotta thing that all the games that are already on the market for PC were designed to work off of a One Core processor. Eg. Pentium 4.

They've even said that it's very hard for gaming manufacturers to produce games that can work off of 2/4 cores.

Personally.. P4's or Pentium D's are the best for gaming at the moment. But for the Future, a decent Core 2 Duo or AMD 64 FX are ideal.

Best performance, lowest graphics. Best graphics, highest graphics! :D
