Hey guys.
I built my pc in the autumn of 2014.
I use an Asus Z-97AR mobo with an i5-4690k processor. My graphics card is an Asus NVIDIA Gtx 760.
Over the last year I've slowly had to decrease my graphics settings of the game from close to ultra down to good for raiding. I seem to occasionally have to ALT + Tab during higher gpu intensive spots because the screen starts graphically lagging and the only fix seems to be doing that.
I get around 25-45 frames in heavily populated zones and what not as well. I feel like I should be getting better than that.
A lot of what I've read is that World of Warcraft is a CPU intensive game but the slow degradation of the card settings makes me think the gpu memory may be getting chewed through.
I use two 24 inch monitors both at 1080p and have the game running around 6+ hours sometimes per day. I've also used the PC heavily in the last year or so.
My frame rate issues seem to span into other games that I used to be able to run on higher such as Chivalry.
I'm trying to see if it's necessary to replace the entire board and processor or just get a new 980ti card instead of getting all the above.
Thanks for reading and your comments are appreciated.
