I am currently playing WoW (World of Warcraft) and i have a "Asus Radeon A9600XT" Graphics card and it is suppose to be really good for this game, when i sign on it is very laggy. I went to update my drivers to see if i could better play it, i right clicked my computer>propeties>hardware tab> manage devices tab....and so on, i updated and it said it couldnt match anything newer than what i have. the last time i updated my drivers was about 5 months ago, and when i did whenever i went to settings for the desktop either by going through windows or by the icon for the asus my computer magically restarted by itself, so my question is how to reduce lag for WoW, what that problem was with the restart, and also "Can memory make my computer run faster?

Thank you all. sorry for the long read,

Silk

download the drivers from here:

memory will not increase PC speed, but it makes it run more efficiently, which has the same effect sometimes.

Additionally, have you checked for running applications in the background? Does disabling them improve the games performance
