MMOChamp post about System Requirements

Legion - System Requirements
New system requirements were recently posted and we took a look at how they compare to the old ones. If you are ready to upgrade, you can take a look at our latest Setup of the Month or ask for assistance on the Computer Forums.

Mac requirements are listed on the Legion and Warlords system requirement pages. Notable increases include the minimum CPU going from a Core2 Duo to i5-750, as well as the minimum (2GB to 4GB) and recommended (4GB to 8GB) RAM being increased.

Minimum

Intel CPU: Intel Core2 Duo E6600 increased to Intel Core2 Duo E8500
AMD CPU: AMD Phenom X3 8750 increased to AMD Phenom II X3 720
Drive Space: 35 GB increased to 45 GB.
Nvidia GPU: 8800 GT increased to GT 440
AMD GPU: Radeon HD 4850 increased to Radeon HD 5670
Intel GPU: HD Graphics 3000 increased to HD Graphics 5000

Recommended

Operating System: Windows 7, 8, or 10 increased to Windows 10.
Intel CPU: Intel Core i5-2400 increased to Intel Core i5-3330
AMD CPU: AMD FX-4100 increased to AMD FX-6300

NOW they say this? after doing all that pre-purchase early order etc... advertising?

Yeah, I have three accounts and have upgraded all three to legion, and will probably NOT be able to play WoW now on two of my computers.

There's also no fricken way I'm "up"grading to Windoze 10.

Remember that these are the specs they guarantee they support but it doesn't necessarily mean your older system won't work. My Mac is getting reasonably old now. 2009 I think it was. But it's still running Legion

Well, fingers crossed that my computers can handle it.
One of them I know is more than powerful enough, another will probably on the barest minimum settings, but one is probably borderline, however.

My 5+ yr old computer runs the alpha so I wouldn't panic yet
