    I have a N10 (netbook) which gets processor bound on WoW big time, frame rates are barely playable, but the 9300 GPU should be plenty fast enough with the better CPU in the X83. You're getting a pretty good hardware package there, obviously it can't compete with machines costing 2X or 3X as much but for the price it looks like a great value.
