So, this is my first time posting here and I'm not sure if this topic fits in here, so feel free to move it. Any way, my problem is WoW and its horrible framerate. I'm honestly lost when it comes to video cards and driver and whatnot, so I'm hoping someone here can help me fix the problem. My framerate -never- gets above 22FPS no matter what I do. And my uncle, who's my computer savvy told me its probably a video driver problem. I've posted on the WOW forums and got nothing more than "A lot of people have that problem. Sucks to be you" So thats why I'm here. If anyone could please help me solve the problem or at least improve my framerate, you have my unending thanks. Anyway, my system specs are as follows (sorry for the wall of text):
