So ive recently changed out my hard drive, and when i went to start World of Warcraft i was getting a FPS of 5-20. Previously on my last hard drive i got around 70 FPS + on ultra. Ive tried uninstalling drivers and reinstalling. Ive looked at all the settings for the card and on the game, but to no prevail.
Mother board: MSI Z77A-G45
Hard Drive: Samsung Evo 850 & 3TB Toshiba HDD
Graphics Card: 970GTX
RAM: 12GB
Processor: intel i7 3770 3.4Ghz
 
Which drive was the game installed on before? Which drive is it installed on now? Your framerate shouldn't change much, if at all, due to a hard drive swap. When you changed hard drives, did you disconnect the computer from the monitor so you could work on it? If so, did you plug the monitor back into the videocard or the motherboard graphics?

It was installed on my seagate 2TB HDD, it's now on the SSD. Yes. Well I had to update the bios to run the graphics card, so I would boot with onboard graphics then swap it over.

for some reason when swapping over my hard drive my computer would no longer boot with my graphics card so I had to update it.

Do you think it would be possible that the motherboard is faulty which is bottlenecking the GPU as recently the boards onboard Ethernet stopped working?
