Works great in my girlfriends computer for WoW. And yes, it DOES work for raiding. We both run 25 man raids and shes using this card at 1600 X 1200 resolution with all settings maxed, no antialiasing and 8X anistrophic filtering. I guess it depends on where your system bottleneck is if you think this card isnt worth the money. shes getting around 20 - 40 frames under raiding conditions with these settings, so this card will keep her PC running for one more year ^^

Does everything I wanted it to do
I purchased this card to upgrade my 2002 Dell 8200 so I could run dual displays. I had no problems installing it a month ago and it has worked perfectly. I purchased a higher wattage power supply as recommended, but it wouldn't fit in the Dell computer. I had looked for a compatable power supply but the one I wanted to get is unavailable. I have had no problems with the original Dell power supply for a month now and am now not planning on replacing it. I never reconnected the floppy disc drive, as I thought I would be opening the case again to put in the new power supply so there is a little less current draw but that probably isn't enough to account for not needing to upgrade the power supply. I do have a USB2 card installed that is drawing a little current.

Very impressive!
Tom's Hardware review has this graphics card as the best update for AGP Dell 3800 and IT IS! It was easy to install. Just make sure you update the power supply. Go to ATI to download Catalyst Control Center. Ready to make videos!
