Hey , why is my setup giving so low performance during wow play , i can reach around 70fps in cities but for an example in ashran ( PvP zone where is much people ) my fps drops to around 20 i check my cpu usage is only 40% and gpu is nearly always 100% but for example sometimes when im in open world zone i have 100fps all graphics maxed , then i drop all to lowest possible and i still have 100fps so can my system have some kind of bottleneck for the low performance ? :S

setup :
CPU : i5-4690k (using the turbo mode at 4.4ghz)
RAM : 8gb 1866mhz
GPU : Gigabyte R9 380 4gb
Mobo : ASRock z97 extreme4

WoW is not very AMD friendly. It is definitely an Intel/Nvidia favoring title. Make sure you are not overheating, and make sure your drivers are up to date.
