My laptop currently has 1 year Mcafee installed. I also have access to Avast! Internet Security (Full Paid Version), and was wondering which of the two would be better for my computer? I considered Avast because it has the "silent gaming mode" which I think might improve WoW performance, however I don't really know what to get.

PS: I will also be installing Malwarebytes Anti-malware and Super Anti-spyware later in the future (soon), but they will not be running in the background. They will only be installed and used in emergencies.

I'm looking for the best possible performance for WoW and security. Would I experience an increase in performance by switching to Avast! IS? or do you guys recommend me a better AV?
Microsoft - www.microsoft.com/security_essentials

Free, rates highly on the AV Comparatives website (which does bi-annual tests/comparisons of all the big AV players), and well, it's free, doesn't hog up a lot of resources, and it works.
