By 8XXX, do you mean 8200 or another mobile processor? I always cringe at the prospect at playing WoW on a non gaming laptop - images of shared video memory, slow processors and limited memory dance through my head - but that said.. based on what I have read.. yo tengo sed...

..... yeah ok

Anyway.

With a modern processor and an ACTUAL video card setup, I don't see why you could not play on a laptop with playable results as long as it has a gig or more of memory and a decent enough video card. My gut says the mobile 8XXX series may not benchmark with enough oomph but I don't want to be premature - they might. All else equal though, desktop > laptop for WoW but there ARE plenty of laptops out there that can play WoW just fine. That of course depends on your version of playable Seriously though - it is worth exploring deeper for sure. It might run 60 fps constantly with the video card. Find out more about it though if you can.
