Yes.
25 man raiding at 85 might push your machine a bit hard, but lower some settings and you'll be fine.
Upgrading to 10.6 is only $29 btw, might be worth it.

Nope, not yet. Thats why i have posted here, cause i was wondering will am i be able to run it properly (without settings on high ofc).
How is your machine now in the Northrend zones? In ICC25? How it handles these areas is a good indicator on how it runs in the old world when Cataclysm comes out. Although the zones are changing, it's not like there will be all new, super high poly count mobs, and the textures, from what I've seen, are not appreciably better than the Northrend areas.
If you can comfortably handle the content in WotLK, you should be ok in Cata; If it's borderline, then you might want to think about upgrading, or live with dialing the settings down from your current config.
I had no problems at all during the WotLK, only in dalaran i have lots of lag during the evenings.
the graphics requirements were changed in the latest patch (4.0.1). if your computer runs the game acceptably now, you should be fine for the expansion.
Did they? Hmm haven't noticed. Ok thanks for your help guys, lets wait and pray i can run it smoothly and level up my druid
