Can this laptop handle World of Warcraft at above 20 fps?

Yes it can handle World of Warcraft but it still depends on the system requirement of the game that you will run into this laptop.

No.World of warcraft, sure.Some FPS games on low settings? Likely so.Our clients report this unit gives them about 20~35FPS in wow on moderate settings.

I've used it for Skyrim and, more recently, Guild Wars 2 and have to say that for a laptop it's pretty decent. You need to run GW2 and low-medium graphics settings to get a reasonable frame rate. You can't expect a laptop to give you desktop quality graphics. If they put that kind of power in a laptop you could probably fry eggs on it.

Gaming performance will depend on the game you are playing. However the GT 820M in this notebook is an entry level GPU which will handle older games fine but with newer more demanding games you will need to set the game settings to low or medium to have playable frames per second.

It runs very well on medium to highish settings. You aren't going to be able to run it smoothly on max settings.

According to those specs it should be capable of running WoW on highest settings really well if not perfectly.

It can quite respectably. He may have to alter the graphic settings down a little in the menu to increase performance but the integrated graphics are decent. It handled Final Fantasy XIV and Starcraft 2 smoothly for me with some tweaking.

I would say, "No sir". It has Radeon (tm) hd graphics 2.10 ghz. If you are looking specifically for gaming I don't think this is your computer, sorry. My husband has installed a couple of games on my laptop that don't play on his desktop, but he says his computer has a much better graphics card for his games like Crysis.

No, I wouldn't recommend it for gaming. It is best used as a family low graphics laptop.

If those are anything like World of Warcraft, they should run fine. No lag and the graphics are good.

We haven't run WoW on it. But it runs Rift, Elder Scrolls Online and other games/MMOs at full settings without issue. It should have no trouble running WoW.

If it's anything like other Haswell-ULT laptops (which I'm sure it is), it should be able to run pretty much anything, as long as you turn the settings down far enough. On a Surface Pro 2 (which runs the exact same CPU/GPU, the i5-4200U), for example, I've run Battlefield 4 at lowest/720p at a good 40 FPS, which was definitely playable. Less-demanding games like StarCraft II, DotA 2, Civilization V, etc, should be able to get 60+ FPS at lower settings.

Yes of course. Its a gaming laptop but a laptop none the less it justs does things faster and better then most of your budget laptops

Yes, but not at 100% graphics settings. I tried TF2 and it ran perfectly at 100% detail, but that's not a power-hungry game. I also tried GS Global Conflict, and it ran well at 75% settings. For more recent, powerful games, I'm assuming they'll run well at about 50%. That sounds bad, but the games are still great at 50%. I'd go with this, and when your budget allows, upgrade the GPU. For another comparison, I've done some video editing with this, and blows my 6GB dual-core laptop away. A 15-minute HD video takes more than 20-minutes to output on the laptop, and about 4 minutes with this PC. Not bad at all.

I can not say, several years since I played some good games such as WoW and etc,. I do understand that this quad core is more of a mid performance, very fast. If you played WoW on a dual core, this quad core will move. Also it has Windows 8 which has several performance improvements over Windows 7, you will get a free upgrade if I am correct to Windows 8.1 in next 2 months. I have not overwhelmed this pc running video and spreadsheets at the same time; you may want to check with WoW website what their recommendation is for WoW MoP. I suspect that you will be covered with this GW ur12 model. Good luck and have a good day.

Probably not. The CPU is really good, but the graphics card will probably need to be upgraded to play SWOR on High. For it's price, it's a good computer to play on Medium.
