GTX765M 2GB DDR5
80GB SSD Boot Drive
1TB 7200Rpm 32mb Cache

Could I get like 60fps+ normally and in raids world bosses and cities 30fps. It's a 2014 Alienware 14 for 500$, I been looking at y50's and such but they're like 1300 1400 plus tax.

it shouldn't have a problem. I have the 960m and comparisons aren't to far off according to cpuboss.

I don't have any issues in WoW or most other games.

If you look for a laptop similar to mine you can find them on sale for as cheap as $750 from what I have seen.

You could get a laptop with a 960m for about 800$ and it would last longer. Plus it would get less hot. My 765 laptop got hot as balls (It was a Lenovo y500 iirc), plus it vented on my mouse hand.

Get a larger Data plan. ATT is cheaper, and nearly as good. Tho Verizon is better, dunno about Canada service, everything is expensive up there.

Ended up buying it anyway, I'm sure it'll work fine, 25 mans and ogrimmar might be annoying though, just drop it to low for those if i have to.
