yeah, I really really want to try this game out.
I will definitely be signing myself up tonight!

Do you know if WoW is DX9?
I have a Ti4200 card that is DX8, and I really don't want to have to buy another video card just to make it run good.

DX9 should work with your card. It's worked with my brother's geforce 2.

Well, I'm running DX9 right now on my computer, but currently I only own DX8 games. Everything works fine.
I was just wondering if I'm going to have a quality or performance hit if WoW is indeed a DX9 game.

probably not, the ti4200 is a good card and should be able to handle it. What are the system requirements for the game? If yours is higher than the recommended vid card, then you'll be fine.

I doubt if you'd notice any difference
DX9 is backwards compatible

The only thing you'll miss are mostly negligible visual enhancements.

Cool.

The system requirements have yet to be released. But from what people are speculating in miscellaneous articles I've found on google, it shouldn't take much to run it... yay!

"Well its only for people living in the us"

Blizzard
"we will only be able to accept applications from Canada, Korea, and the US."

Last I checked Korea and Canada werent parts of the United States of America.

"The test for Europe and other countries around the world will happen later this year. Please do not contact us for further information regarding the beta test; we will be posting a FAQ in the days ahead."
