So I recently bought a custom build PC from Dino PC a couple months ago, I've just recently got back into WoW in time for Legion. I was fully expecting to have smooth frame rates on Ultra settings but it seems to be struggling on the level '7' graphics preset (around 30-40 fps). Can anyone help me troubleshoot what the problem may be?

Specs are:

AMD FX 8320 Black Edition
Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 4GB
16 GB DDR3 RAM

I've installed the latest drivers through Geforce Experience and optimized game settings for WoW. Please help!

WoW is very unfriendly, to AMD hardware. The level 7 preset is WoD Ultra. You should probably trying to run about 5, maybe 6. I run a 7, with my 780ti, with shadows on low, and SSAO disabled.
