| As most of us are aware, college is on the horizon, and school supply shopping season along with it. Very soon I will be looking into purchasing a new laptop, and was wondering if it was possible to make it do one very important operation: Run World of Warcraft. To be specific, I would like to know what kind of specs to look for when browsing (processors, video cards, etc), and how it runs on it (for those of you that have pulled it off). Any help you could give me would be very much appreciated. |

| Sure thing: When you're in towns, you want a gig of RAM for WoW. It runs fine on 512 MB, but if you go to places like the Orc Capital, then you're gonna be lagging like hell. You'll need a card that supports DirectX 9.0, I'd suggest getting 128 MB of video memory or higher (not too hard to find nowadays, but for a laptop this WILL be pricey), usually these come onboard with a decent package. It's very hard to upgrade a laptop, so that's something you have to worry about too. As far as a processor goes, you'll want at least a 533 FSB with a 1.5 GHz or higher processor. That, too, isn't too hard to find on a laptop. Most of them actually sell for higher. Get yourself a high-end Athlon mobile and you're golden. |
