if what you want is to play videogames i'd recommend getting a console rather than a computer. personally i enjoy the wii very much but a better option (for serious gamers) is a ps3.
when it comes to xbox vs ps3, i definitely go for the ps3.
if you still want a computer and your budget allows it (you might spend some £2,000 for the best option) go for alienware http://www.alienware.co.uk/main.aspx

i'm not sure i would recommend alienware based on the difficulties people have with their customer service:

I think playing WoW doesn't require that much of a super PC. A grant-PC should do the trick. I suggest you buy either a pre-used computer or a new computer from last year. They would range in about your budget, and once revamped, they're like new!
I've been playing WoW-like games on my laptop for ages, and it never crashed. Of course, the graph settings were the lowest, but still. Buying a computer today would most certainly allow you to play with the graphics set at at least medium, if not high. So play, my friend, play!
(I certainly won'y judge you for playing WoW, i've been playing Ultima Online for like 10 years!
