Are my needs correct (below)? The budget is about 1250 Euros and I do not mind to wait for a month.

8750H, 1060 6GB, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, 17.3".

Been told that 1060 is the minimum for comfortable FHD gaming and 3GB might be not enough. Then the GPU would need a decent CPU and 7700HQ is too old; WoW is CPU-intensive, and the reasoning here is not multiple cores but higher speed. 16GB of RAM to match the whole system and 17.3 for comfortable viewing (will also get a monitor for home use).

Laptop because I want to game in the university.

Edit:

This is for decent enjoyable experience. I am not very rich but I do not mind to spend slightly more for something better (this budget), also allowing more use for the future.

Edit 2:

Contemplating a 120/144 screen. This (144) seems good enough (below)?

Yes those specs are fine for WOW on higher settings even. I would say running on 7 or 8 would give you 80-120 fps in most areas not in a raid. My system is a bit slower in both CPU and video card and I get 100-110 on 7 with shadows at low.

Thanks. Glad to hear lower specs are very good enough!
