Your budget is well over what a system for WOW should be purchased for. Even a $1,500 laptop can play WOW on high settings.

Take a look here www.xoticpc.com pretty much any of the systems there are equal in quality, see what interests you.

If you will be using the system to play games on without an external monitor, I would not go smaller than the 15.6" models.

This looks OK with a good screen and an SSD. http/www.xoticpc.com/sager-np8156-clevo-p650hp6-g.html I would not worry too much about not having a DVD player in a laptop these days, almost all setups are done via download, and you can always get an external drive is needed. One thing I noticed with that model, the overview shows a 250 GB SSD, the spec details show a 128 GB one.
