what settings are you on? what resolution? and do you have anti aliasing turned on?

with WoD they brought in a decent amount of graphical changes that requires more powerful hardware

I can tell you exactly the problem, but you won't want to hear it. AMD processors are horrible in WoW. WoW also only utilizes 4 threads, so upgrading beyond your 6 core processor won't make a lick of difference. You'd have to move up to an Intel processor with 4 cores to do better, and that would involve replacing the motherboard as well.

honestly, that does seem about right to me. i could be wrong ( not sure the AMD side of things), but with my i7 4790 and a gtx 750 ti, i was barely getting that on fair . but i would look to see what benchmarks other people have with that processor and gpu

It's not the specs for your computer, exactly. It's mostly that the code in WoW executes much faster on Intel processors. They way the code executes on AMD processors is particularly bad in WoW. It's kind of more of a laziness in the code from Blizzard. There really isn't anything you can do about it.

Some things that do help with performance: set the ground clutter to minimum, don't use any AA. AA doesn't make any difference anyway, and ground clutter is just noise. They don't help that much, but they do help a little.
