To play World of Warcraft Shadowlands smoothly without any stuttering, we don’t need that much of a gaming supercomputer. But it’s still a 3D game with tons of 3D models, textures and 3D effects. There is also the Ray Tracing rendering technique in the latest Shadowlands expansion. To play the game at its best, we recommend the following system requirements. If your laptop or a PC doesn’t have the hardware powerful enough as mentioned in minimum system requirements, you may check a list of best laptops to play WoW. Same goes for a desktop PC.

How to verify your desktop PC or laptop meets World of Warcraft system requirements?

With these few easy steps, you can check whether your gaming PC or laptop can run World of Warcraft Shadowlands.

  1. Open System Information

    Click Start, type in System Information and press Enter.

  2. Check CPU and RAM

    System Summary - CPU

    On the top left corner, click on System Summary to view and review your operating system, type of processor (CPU), and amount of memory. Make sure these meet or exceed the minimum requirements.
    World of Warcraft Shadowlands requires an Intel Core i5-3450 or
    AMD FX™ 8300
    , and the system information file shows an Intel Core i7-9750H. Meaning it meets (and exceeds) the minimum system requirements. For more info about CPU performances and the benchmarks, check out this website so you can compare your CPU with the required one.
    The same goes for the amount of system memory available. The system info shows 15.8 GB, which is well above the minimum of 4GB.

  3. Open Display under System Information

    Next to Components, click the + sign to expand the list and click on Display to check your graphics card (GPU).

  4. Check GPU

    System Summary - Display

    Check your video card(s) whether it meets the minimum requirements.
    Example:
    World of Warcraft requires at least an nVidia NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760, AMD Radeon RX 560 or Intel UHD 630, so an Nvidia Geforce RTX 2070 meets and exceeds the minimum system requirements. If your laptop or a PC has only one GPU, only one would be listed.
