Other Alterac Valley Woes, perhaps?
For one, I lag so hard it's ridiculous. Anywhere from a third to a half of my deaths are caused by a period of time in which one frame I'm staring down an enemy raid, and the next frame--about thirty seconds later--I've either auto-run into the enemy raid and died, or stood completely still as a mob of night elves all converge on me at once.
I imagine this is the fault of my mere 512 mb of RAM. Or at least, I've heard that that isn't enough to handle the heavier aspects of the game. Perhaps if I switch out one 256 stick for a 512--raising the total to 768--would it be enough to solve most of this? My friend has a gig of RAM, I know (which is nearly impossible for me at the moment) and experiences very few problems.
Of course, I can't be doing TOO bad, seeing as I spend an hour in there and score higher at level 58 with some level 39 equipment still than certain people who've been hitting MC for months.
