Hello.I was wondering whether my computer can run World of Warcraft at 4K or not.

i7-5820k
8gb DDR4 2400mhz
msi gtx 970 oc (single)

I know I am able to run it.I am asking if I can run it with solid fps,like 40+ in raids, 60+ open world (you get the point).I am not interested above 60 fps and I want the lowest to be 30.So what do I get with this?

You have no need to have AA turned on, you can't tell a difference at 4k res, just turn that off and you should get 60+ fps (or very close to ) even in raids.

You could get 60+ fps easy... Although that would require lowering the settings. If you are wanting max settings at 4k i'd say somewhere around 30-45 fps is what you would get. If you turn off AA that number should pretty much double, to something like 60-90 fps.

From what I remember of WoW, it's CPU constrained for RAIDs and not GPU. So you want to clock the i7 as high as you can for them. Same with the RAM timings: as tight and fast as possible. That will give you a smoother experience hands down.

Cheers!

Thank you Derza10 and Yuka for your answers.So I should overclock the cpu,ram is super fast already and the gpu can be overclocked more too.

Derza10, in 4K max settings do I get that 30-45fps in raid? or is this the average fps?

This guy is running WOW on 4K with GTX 970, he looks to get 40-60+ FPS

I don't understand, maybe it's my internet connection, but i think i see some stuttering. Maybe because my internet is slow at work.

Don't forget he is also recording the video, and that is very CPU intensive, just like the raid is.

Cheers!
