Laptop for wow

Hi all,
with this laptop what type of settings I can expect to have enabled?

L enovo IdeaPad L340 Laptop 43,9 cm (17,3 Zoll, 1920x1080, FHD, IPS, matt) Gaming Notebook (Intel Core i5-9300H, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD + 128 GB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 , Windows 10 Home)

any other device that you can suggest at the same price range?
Is not 8GB of ram low for wow?

Since Windows & WoW can ‘require access’ to up to 4GB, each 8GB isn’t optimal.

My guess would be that you’d get 5-6 on the settings bar, based on using desktop machines only, though.

so you are suggesting for a 16GB laptop?
Btw is this a better spec laptop than the one I posted above?

Acer Nitro 5 (AN515-43-R90F) 39,6 cm (15,6 Zoll 144Hz Full-HD IPS matt) Gaming Notebook (AMD Ryzen 5 3550H, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB PCIe SSD, AMD Radeon RX 560X,

I’d go with the Lenovo… despite the Acer having a better panel (monitor).
8GB is workable, but you’ll need to have absolutely nothing else but WoW (background Windows/system stuff, ofc) running when you play (no browser, etc).

do you have any other suggestion? Will I get something better if I give 100 or 200 more euros?

I have to admit that I don’t ‘shop’ for laptops, so I wouldn’t know where to start with recommendations.
That said, the specifications from desktops still apply to portable machines; it’s just that desktops are more easily customisable.

Where I would try to prioritise spec’s would be:
Fastest, newest CPU on offer - it still does most of the work required by the game; that said a slightly slower i7 would be better than a slightly faster i5.
Dedicated graphics; as much VRAM as is on offer (better quality of image).
SSD storage, for faster boot/load times.
(Ideally) 16GB RAM, but that may push you into a higher price sector of the laptop market.

Aside from that, whatever’s out there that you can comfortably afford.
A quick search found this: Asus RoG Strix, model G531GU-AL315T

Based on the machine you quoted in your first post, that’s ‘double’ your budget, so maybe too expensive… but it gives you an idea.
However, this version of the Acer Nitro 5 would be a better one than you one you offered, later: Acer item code: NH.Q59EK.006

If the laptop can cool it. Some laptops throttle a lot and can’t maintain max clocks. Also things like palmrest temperature, flex and noise play a role.

Also aside of Coronavirus delays we will see a refresh of laptops in the upcoming months, maybe weeks - new mobile Ryzen and likely some new Intel parts to follow.
