    With a firecuda hdd you really dont need a SSD, learned this first hand. 1050 is a better price/performance card than the 1050ti, and is more than enough for WoW. Especially the gigabyte model i linked, its on sale.

    Not sure, but 100 bucks for that is a great deal, its usually 120 or 130.

    Just remember that, whatever stuff you add, you can get a brand new sager gaming laptop for a base price of $700 that comes with a 1050, 8GB 2400, and i7-7700

    http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np5855-...ustomization=1
    TO FIX WOW:1. smaller server sizes & server-only LFG awarding satchels, so elite players help others. 2. "helper builds" with loom powers - talent trees so elite players cast buffs on low level players XP gain, HP/mana, regen, damage, etc. 3. "helper ilvl" scoring how much you help others. 4. observer games like in SC to watch/chat (like twitch but with MORE DETAILS & inside the wow UI) 5. guild leagues to compete with rival guilds for progression (with observer mode).6. jackpot world mobs.
