WotLK is unoptimized for new hardware. Nothing you can do except hope this: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/t...-aware.112556/ fixes it up a bit. Lets it use more RAM, read the instructions.

Then you're ****ed. It runs poorly on mine too. Drops to 40s in Dala with system not using more than like 20% of GPU and less then 5% of CPU. As I said, it's not optimized for new hardware. But TBH 40-50 isn't that bad if you're in Dalaran, it's enough to do what you need to and get out of there.

Try dropping some video settings such as shadow quality, view distance, multisampling etc. a notch. See if there's any major difference. Could make the game more tolerable. Fiddle around and see what settings affect your FPS and how much. Just remember to keep Projected Textures on.

Turn off hardware cursor, guaranteed the issue you are experiencing.

view distance gave me 20+ fps boost

Did you try disabling hardware cursor?

Hardware cursor is a main problem, every single time you move a cursor in the game it starts shuttering. I recommend you to use Max details + at least 4xMSAA{Multisample anti-aliasing} and v-sync to lock your FPS that corresponds with your Monitor's Refresh Rate.

I had 24-30 fps and finally was able to fix my issue. Go in WTF/Config and check SET maxFPS "value". Mine was set to 60 and i was getting 30 fps, I set it to 120 and now im getting 60 fps so higher is better

Thank you so much! I went from ~400 fps that were unstable as hell on vsync (144fps) drops from 144 to 70, etc. all the time.
Now i have permanent 144 fps without any stutters. Thank you !
