Hi, I’m a relatively new WoW player and not typically a PC gamer so I’m in the market for a Gaming laptop that will support recommended system requirements for Shadowlands (my current laptop is so not made for gaming and I don’t have the space on my hard drive). I also don’t want to spend a ton on it, since I don’t play many other games. I’ve done research but my eyes are kinda crossing at this point and I need help.
Can anyone tell me whether any of these look good for the new expansion/future WoW content?
Acer Aspire 5 (Intel Ci5-1035G1/512GB SSD/8GB RAM/Windows 10)
Acer Nitro 5 (i5 8th Gen, 8GB Ram, 750 GB HDD, GTX 1050 4GB VRAM, 512GB SSD)
ASUS TUF 15.6" (AMD Ryzen 5 3550H/512GB SSD/8GB RAM/NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650)
If you have any other low-end suggestions please lmk! Thanks!
If low end is fine with you…any of those would be great. Ibuypower has desktops for $849 that are good for gaming and you wouldn’t have to use a 15 inch screen…and you could upgrade stuff if you wanted to. Also Digital Storm’s level 1 Lynx desktop is only $699.
What’s your budget?
Looking to stay under $1000 if possible
Look for Lenovo Legion 5 or HP Omen with AMD Ryzen 4600H.
Would it be possible for you to hold out just a bit longer? I’m thinking there may be better hardware options and/or better deals around the holiday season. I mean we’re already in Q4 anyway.

How do these stack up against the RTX 2060 equipped systems?
How do these look? There are two with 2060’s and just slightly over budget at $1,099.00 (and one with a 1650ti for $849).

The one with the 1660 Ti will perform pretty similar to an RTX 2060 mobile (minus the RT cores).
Get something cheap for right now and play it on low. You can get something for maybe $500. Wait a year and get a RTX3080 laptop for like $1200. That will get you a laptop that will max out everything for the next 5 years.
I guess I’m wow they’ll be more cpu limited anyway
