Computer Specifications right now are:

Well I seem to have posted by mistake.. check back in one minute

 

Intel I5 2320 Socket 1155 LGA, 16 GB DDR3 RAM and Nvidia Geforce GT 520

 

I am also running a 1.5 TB Hybrid HDD

 

I am willing to buy the SSD ($50 for 128gb) and a GT 720/730 $60/$100 respectively. Will these let me use High settings on all the graphics settings? Should I upgrade my processor because it can't handle the load needed of the graphics card?

 

All I want is to have ALL high settings turned on for the graphics, will these suffice?

You want the second number of your GPU to be 5 or higher the 2-3 isn't gaming issue for the most part.(Nvidia)

Will the 720 or the 730 Suffice though? 750 is a tad bit to expensive for me at 300$

So, I would be fine running on high? with the 700 series?

If you can tolerate your loading times, invest the extra $50 into the graphics card.

Should I also upgrade the processor or does that not really matter? and yeah, I'll probably get the 50$ SSD and the 100$ graphics card.

​I know people with 750's that do.  Just bear in mind it's a budget gaming card you won't get to many years out of it if you have high expectations.

Haven't they come a long way with the 9xx?

I'm able to run WoWS on maximum settings with a GTX 960 as my GPU, and a Pentium G3258 as my processor, if that helps. I'd imagine a GTX 750 or GTX 750ti could handle WoWS on high settings reasonably well.

If they are selling 750's for $300 you're looking at the wrong store.

If your on a tight budget you can game at max settings for less than 100.  I know another ST that picked up a 6970 for less than that. Shop better here.

Cheapest gpu I would recommend would be 750ti for around 110$, your processor does not need to be upgraded to max WoWs, it is actually pretty good.

GTX950/960s start around $160. If you can forgo the hard drive you can pick up one of these within your budget. Your CPU should be fine, but hopefully someone else can give more insight. 

 

Or you can pick up the 750ti like mentioned above.
