WoW isn't very demanding, but if you think it feels slow then the obvious upgrades would be graphics card, RAM and CPU.

What in-game graphics settings are you using? (resolution, antialiasing, texture details, etc)

How much free hard drive space do you have, and do you defrag regularly?

What speed is your internet connection?

To see your full system specs, download Everest and go to Computer > Summary.

To see your power supply unit (PSU) details, remove the side panel from your case and post back with the make/model and total watts listed on the PSU label. This will determine what kind of upgrades you can make.
