Light duty gaming laptop?

I need a laptop that can handle classic wow, Lol and some smaller titles like Blasphemous, Hollow Knight, etc.

 

It seems the only decent reviews I can find are for actual "gaming" laptops and I would just like to know if there is a cheaper option that would handle these specific titles without breaking the bank.

Any laptop with an i5 should be able to do what you;re asking, just get the cheapest laptop you can with an SSD and a quad core and you're set.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

I was worried about how intels onboard graphics would be during raids. Would a Ryzen 3 or 5 possibly be a better option? I see a few models with the 3200u and 3500u

the 3200U has pretty similar integrated graphics capabilities to Intel's, since they're similarly designed to be low power devices. However the 3500U has much better graphics so that would be far more compelling. Consider it somewhere around an MX150 GPU (although it depends on which MX150 we're talking about)
