Thanks for your help, but i returned it, i think it was just some major hardware ware down or a factor defect or something like that. The i7 was clocked down constantly and on performance test of the laptop wht 5650 + i5 combo was ranked better compared to the state my laptop was in. I'm...

Basing myself on the performance test, and the fact that this computer is refurbished, and despite what i throw at it, i can't seem to get the CPU to go higher than a rediculous 0.9 GHz i think i'm going to take it back while i still can, and buy a cheaper i5 5650 laptop 'brand new' which...

I was playing at 1366x768 but more recently reduced this to 1280x720. I don't really own a great selection of PC Games atm either, however due to my base sample being World of Warcraft atm, i may look into further diagnosing the issue with the actual game. However there is still no explanation...

My suspicions is leaning towards my CPU maybe being faulty. Whether i have my graphics on the game set to medium, high or ultra, FPS is the same in some areas. However when CPU power starts coming into demand from players' actions etc. It will plummet nonetheless. When i mentioned about raiding...

Servers are not the problem, since no other players are getting the same problem as me, my ping is good also. The only other game i can use to look at my FPS comparably is the Sims 3 and that is a fairly easy game to run anyway, hence why i have given a performance chart to analyse.

Update - Performance test compared to exact similar systems http://img833.imageshack.us/f/envy151060eaperformance.jpg/

I recently bought a HP Envy 15 1060ea. It's packed with an i7-720QM and an ATI Mobility 4830 with the following benchmarks- http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-ATI-Mobility-Radeon-HD-4830.14954.0.html Should run games pretty nicely right? Well apparently not, during my gameplay of WoW, i'll...

http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mobility-Radeon-HD-5165.24579.0.html That's its GPU. Despite the name it's only a higher clocked 4650, therefore a generation older of what is available, it is around 50 - 100 pounds cheaper than having a 5650 with an i5. The 5650 is better, but only slightly...

The new 'i' series would be reccomended amongst most of the older Pentium Duo processors. Ranked in order you have the i3, i5 and i7. Most of them are duo cores but the high end i5's / i7's are Quad core. Starcraft 2 was made to run well on any PC, so you could achieve low settings with any...

Maziar beat me to it, but this is the best place i've been able to find for the GX640, free shipping, and it's the cheapest, the price is amazing for what it packs and it looks pretty nice. http://www.jr.com/msi-microstar/pe/MSR_GX640260US/ If you want to customise your settings to a higher...

Long day in work back here in Britain :). Some other members of the forum may be of more further use than me to help you find a machine on the US Market. I'll give what i have in mind, bare in mind all of these will run WoW at a very decent rate, i'll label each laptop with what i think it will...

Indeed but for the price of Macbooks the quality of their GPUs isnt comparable to Windows Laptops. I've always found it controversial how there are laptops with such poor GPUs selling at the same prices at laptops with very good GPUs, in the big name PC shops here in Britain they seriously now...

What's your budget and country?

If you are looking to play World of Warcraft, have you concidered a better GPU all together? the GPU is more important than the CPU and your choice of CPU's are way overqualified for the game.

Yes i got confused with the other thread you opened where there was an additional person in the discussion from the U.S. MSI are great, and stylish, it may be worth looking around for them, you may find a place which imports to the UK, Laptops are duty free since they count as 'gifts', you pay...
