I have an Athlon XP 1700+, 512 MB DDR RAM, and a Radeon 9200 SE. The game runs fairly well for me at 800X600 with all of the goodies turned up, and I get marginal-to-decent framerates at higher resolutions.
It still chugs along a bit when I enter new areas or go on flights, but overall it's quite playable.
If you want to run WoW very smoothly, I'd go along with what Bolty estimates. 2+ Ghtz processor, 1 gig RAM, and any later DX9 card. Right now, the optimal card for WoW (and most other games) considering power-to-price would be a Radeon 9800 Pro.
