which will my system handle or will they own me

ok I have not been lucky enough or not willing to pay to get in beta but this is my system spec 2.26P4 GeForce Ti 4200 64mb and 768mb ram.  So here is the question which game will I be able to play WOW or EQ2 now I am not asking for opinions of the games because I am sure that they are both great games no doubt about it.  But I am not able to upgrade to a better PC until my wife gets out of college in the spring and then oh man the gaming goodness that will bless my desk mwhahaha.  So just looking for which one i will be best suited to play if I will be able to play either one at all.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions

    You should definately have no problems running WoW.   Should have no problems EQ2 either.   You won't get to see the same quality as what you see posted in pics.   The game after getting the settings just right will run well on that rig.

    You'll be able to run both games pretty good.. obviously quality won't be as good as the screenshots you see, but you'll still be able to play it.

    You'll get better framerates with WoW since it uses a much older graphics engine, but EQ2 won't be much of a problem either.

    You can try WoW soon during the Open Beta and see how well it runs. EQ2 your on your own since they don't have an open beta.

    I dont get why people think WoW is such a demanding game when just by looking at it you can see the engine is clearly a few years out of date. I got 20-30 fps on my P42.0 with a [i]Radeon 7500[i]!

    Oh and by the way, those of you who say WoWs graphics "arent out of date they are just stylish!!1"... just because theyre stylish doesnt mean they can look better, look at their CG movies, theyre stylish and they have awsome graphics, so there is no reason it cant be stylish and still have an up to date engine.
