Yup, that's the full deal.

Don't you want to go for 64-bit, btw? Means you'll be able to upgrade your RAM in future.

well i only have 2gb ram in so it will go really slow wont it?

Nope... dunno what gives you that idea In fact any software you run on it has the potential to be quite a bit faster, if you use the 64-bit version. It's especially noticeable with zipping programs like WinRAR.

So if i got the 64bit, it wont run fast? seeing as it requires 2gb ram

will it play Worldofwarcraft with no lag?

There won't be any difference between the 64-bit version and the 32-bit version, other than the 64-bit will often be faster in specific areas.

It will play WoW equally well as the 32-bit version.

The RAM requirement for 32-/64-bit doesn't actually make much difference, despite what the specs say.
I'm running 64-bit W7 on my netbook (i.e., a fairly slow machine) and it runs fine, it used to have 32-bit version on and there's not much difference other than the previously mentioned stuff.

Before you do though, check that there are 64-bit versions of your motherboard drivers. Everything else will do so.
I probably should have mentioned that sooner
