Cry Seriously Low FPS on WOW, HElP :)

Hi, I have really low fps whilst playing World of Warcraft online.

I used to have between 50-80 fps but they dropped about a month ago and have remained between 3-12fps.

Im not sure why or how this has happend but if you could help this would be most appreciated.

I have all the patches installed and I have the new expansion.

Im using a laptop to play warcraft with quite good spec.

My laptop model is a HP Pavilion Dv6000.

I payed about £600 for the laptop about 8 months ago.



PLEASE HELP ME :(

Try and go into your Control Panel>NVidia Control Panel>Manage 3d Settings> and then set your 3d settings to custom and then drag the slider to performance and see if that helps at all

Give people chance to responed instead of spamming.

Have you altered any of the game settings at all?

Re: Seriously Low FPS on WOW, HElP :)

Since 3.0 WoW's GFX performance has been terrible espesically with Ati's. Many people with top end computers 4850/70's are only managing 20/30fps in Dalaran with medium settings and no-one knows why.

WoW is possibly now one of the hardest games to achieve max settings with while maintaining 30+ fps.
