I have been having very poor performance in WoW, in major citys such as Dalaran, and in 10 / 25 man raids I have frame rates as poor as 7 and 8. sometimes even as low as 2-3.
I seriously do not believe my hardware to be under powered. but here are some tech specs.
OS: WinXP Pro 2600 /w SP3 and updated Drivers.
Processor: Pentium 4 650 3.4Ghz. /w HT.
Memory: 2GB DDR2 800Mhz 2x 1GB sticks.
Motherboard: Asus P5WD2 Premium.
Video: XFX Nvidia 8800GT 512MB PCIe 16x.
Sound: 128b SoundBlaster Surround. pci. "old and cheap"
HDD's: 2x 80GB Segate SATA150 paired in Raid 0.
Antech TruePower 2.0 550 Watt PSU.
I've also attached a DxDiag.
I just had to gquit my guild because of inability to even sustain a cast sequence, as the fps dip so badly, then right after my ping spikes and I am dissconnected from the game.
I play other games, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Left 4 Dead 2, etc. and do not have any graphical problems or real bad in-game latency. back in the days of vanilla wow, and BC, I never had any issues really with wow. hell I even played Vanilla great on a P3 800, with 512MB Ram, 128MB Video.
