Has 2 video ports (preferrably DVI) so I can 2 monitor, and is powerful enough to run World of Warcraft well (probably would need 2 gigs of Ram).

Thanks for the help, just a question or two?
Isn't 1.86 ghz slow? My Sager laptop has over 3ghz processor but its a P4 not a Dual Core. Is there a difference in speeds based on these chip sets? or is a 1.86ghz dualcore still slower then a 3ghz p4?

Does the video card you list support dual monitors? Also is 1 gig of ram good enough with poker tracker, 8 tables, HUD etc or playing WoW at it's highest levels?

Thanks for the research you did!

The Core2 Duo E6300 will out perform your 3ghz P4 and use alot less energy. One gig of ram will work for all your poker needs but two would be better. That video card will support dual DVI but you will have to use a DVI to VGA adapter on one of your monitors. I know nothing about playing video games on a PC but I do know that gamers spend $300 up on a video card and the one mentioned above can be bought for about $80.
