Default Need some input on the following build please...

this build is for a friend, his laptop just went kapute...
all he wants is for it to get decent frames in WoW, it is the following:

-ASUS M3A78-EM AM2+ microATX mobo
-BFG GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB
-Phenom II X2 545 3.0GHz
-3GB (3x1) G.Skill DDR2 1066 5-5-5-15
-OCZ StealthXStream OCZ700SXS 700W PSU
-Windows XP Pro x86
-120GB HDD

it had to be sub 500$ for him (already has OS and HDD)
Main question here is, will this run WoW nicely? (i don't know because i have never played it)

Total Cost = $505.96

This is figuring that you have a monitor for him. If not. Your gonna need to get more money.
That is way better and goes for about the same price. Not to mention this has more RAM, a better GPU, a faster CPU, and a Case.
