    Laptop for casual WoW

    Hey guys, looking to get a decent laptop for my wife to play WoW on. Doesn't need to run on ultra settings but would like decent FPS. Saw this one on Best Buy site http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-ins...&skuId=2638252
    How would this do?

    Would have to run it on low still, but it would play with acceptable fps. Probably get above 20 in lfr. Guessing like 30 in lfr, 50-60 in the world.

    Thats not bad at all for 400 bucks, has the new intel broadwell chip in it im sure it would play WoW fine on low or fair. If you youtube intel HD 5500 a guy uploaded a ton of different games on that igpu, even loaded up BF4 with 20-30 fps.

    Honestly don't know where WoW falls on this list but it gives you an idea.
