I currently have a macbook pro that is finally crapping out on me. I can not afford another and so I am looking for PC laptops. I have a budget of under $500. I am currently looking at Lenovo, because the system requirements are exactly what I need to play World of Warcraft and Heroes of the Storm. I was wondering if more experienced users could provide some insight though. Thank you in advance!

I can't do over $600 so that's a no on the second one. Would either of these work?

I assume you meant to type "$500", not "$600" because the laptops I provided links for are all under $600.
The Lenovo 310 with an Intel HD 620 integrated graphics (7th generation CPUs) can be used to play WoW at least bsed on the following video on a HP Spectre laptop with a Core i5-7200u and the Intel HD 620. There is no frame rate counter...

If your budget is less than $500, then your best option is the following refurbished Acer laptop with a Core i5-6200 and nVidia 940mx for $487. It only has a 90 warranty.

If you can bump your budget to about $540 (before taxes), then you can buy either of the following new Acer or Lenovo laptops with the same CPU and GPU. The Acer laptop is slightly cheaper.

There is no frame rate counter but it looks smooth enough playing at 1080p resolution and low settings (settings are 15 seconds into the video). A nVidia 940mx should allow you to play on high settings, but it is a refurbished laptop with only a 90 day warranty.
