What distro of linux works best with world of warcraft? also kde vs gnome which one?

I've tried playing wow on ubuntu through wine, and the graphics are all chopy at low settings. But when I play in windows 7 the graphics are fine? Is there a better distro that will not make the game so choppy? (Like emulate windows drivers) also is arch linux, gentoo, or saybian good for this game or 3d drivers in general?What distro of linux works best with world of warcraft? also kde vs gnome which one?
The choice of distro does not really affect performance to that degree; the presence of suitable drivers does. You may wish to try installing the proprietary drivers for the video cards.

The choice of KDE or GNOME should not really impact gaming, though you may need to disable Compiz or compositing in KDE temporarily. Arch Linux and Gentoo do not ship proprietary drivers by default. Sabayon does include them, but that is because of a difference in opinion / politics, not technical.What distro of linux works best with world of warcraft? also kde vs gnome which one?
It's not the dist's fold. It's either wine or ur puter, I guess both. I takes a lot of your puter to run something as heavy as WOW through wine. since there isn't any better versions of wine really I'd say the only thing you can do is to get a new puter.
