I am finally seriously ready to buy a laptop for wow. I don’t plan on raiding with it but I would like it for leveling alts, farming, doing daily stuff.
My budget is 500-800. Obviously the cheaper the better but I am bad at figuring out what I need. Any tips?
i bought a lenovo legion 5 , its got an i7 and plays wow easily, great gaming laptop, sweet actually, costed 800

Do remember that a laptop is more difficult to keep cool, you might want to invest also in a cooling pad for it to keep things under control while you’re gaming.

I legit thought this was a joke, but damn they do recommend a $900-1000 PC. I would argue the 2700x is a bit more powerful than the 6700 and also 16GB of ram is ideal.
And people always say this game runs on a toaster, lol

Those recommend specs surprised me. Although I would make a few changes:
-
CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
-
RAM: 16 GB
-
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
-
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 or AMD Radeon RX Vega 64
-
FREE DISK SPACE: 100 GB
-
DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 8192 MB
I’d probably go with i7-8700 and Ryzen 5 3600
2700x is still slower than the 8700k, and you don’t really need an 8-core for WoW
