Can I run WoW Forever?
Type a graphics card. The reading uses Blizzard's architecture floor first, and it leaves the per-card minimum blank when Blizzard never published one.
How the two lines differ
First, compare the architecture cutoff: below GCN 1, Maxwell, or Skylake, the official post says the Windows card is unsupported. Then compare the published requirements. The GTX 750 Ti clears the cutoff but is below minimum; the GTX 1060 6 GB matches the GTX 10-series / 4 GB minimum example. On Mac, M2 is a minimum example and M4 with 16 GB is the recommended example. An architecture match alone does not establish performance, and all other OS, RAM and SSD requirements still apply.
Mac and handheld pages are linked because a desktop GPU answer does not cover an M-series chip or a Steam Deck. Memory, SSD space, and the operating system still come from the requirements page, which cross-checks the official Battle.net table with an independent community guide.
Enter a model to filter the published examples. A blank VRAM cell means shared or unspecified memory.
| Card | Architecture | VRAM GB | Reading | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Super | Turing | 8 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Above the Maxwell cutoff; no official FPS/minimum row for this exact card. |
| AMD Radeon RX 580 | Polaris (GCN 4) | 8 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Above GCN 1 cutoff; Polaris is not in Blizzard's minimum examples. |
| NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 | Ampere | 8 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Above Maxwell cutoff; laptop and desktop variants differ. |
| NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti | Maxwell | 2 | Architecture supported; below the published minimum | Blizzard lists it as compatible but 'well below the minimum requirements'. |
| NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB) | Pascal | 6 | Matches the published minimum example | The 6 GB variant matches the GTX 10-series / at least 4 GB minimum example. The 3 GB variant does not meet that memory requirement. |
| Apple M2 | Apple Silicon | Matches the published minimum example | Official macOS minimum names M2; M1 is not listed. | |
| Steam Deck | AMD RDNA 2 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Third-party; works via Proton/remote play. Shared VRAM, no official benchmark. | |
| ASUS ROG Ally | AMD RDNA 3 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Windows handheld; Third-party. Shared VRAM, no official benchmark. | |
| Mac | Apple Silicon / Intel | Choose your exact chip and GPU; see the Mac guide | Official macOS minimum: macOS 12, Apple M2 or 9th-gen Intel Core, 8 GB RAM, Metal 4 GB, 128 GB free SSD. | |
| Steam Deck / ROG Ally | AMD RDNA 2 / RDNA 3 | Above the architecture floor; no official minimum row for this card | Not an official platform; Steam Deck via Proton/remote play, ROG Ally via Windows client. | |
| NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 | Kepler | Unsupported — below the architecture floor | Explicitly named as unsupported in Blizzard’s GPU notice; no FPS estimate. | |
| Apple M4 (16 GB Mac) | Apple Silicon | Meets the recommended tier | Matches Battle.net’s macOS 15 / M4 / 16 GB recommended example; other OS, SSD and device requirements still apply. |

Questions
Why is there no FPS number?
Blizzard did not print one for these exact cards. An estimated frame rate would be a guess.
My laptop is missing.
Match the GPU name inside it. The chassis is not a separate support tier in the post.
