can I improve this by tweaking at all or do I just need a new graphics card?
I use to never have problems with wow but now I am lagging so bad that ppl already take off in dungeons before I even load in.
my cpu has 16 GB ram and wow needs at least 8GB ram.
I am not tech savy, can I remedy this someone with tweaking or I just need a new graphics card?
I got this info on a “Can I run it” website because things were just getting so bad I had to figure out why.
You would need a new graphics card to increase your dedicated VRAM.
The system requirements increased between Dragonflight and The War Within. They usually increase between expansions, but not every time.
Not 100% on this…
If you have a fast SSD and able to put it on the bus at 4x or at least the 1x - m.2 …

That is 8.2 GB memory/21GB memory committed. It is burry when you turn…if you want that effect 4/3/3 50% /90 fov , so 45. I like 45% UI at 1920x1080 60p on a 32" 4k tv…HDMI … My SSD is 512GB with page file 3200 r/w on my 16x slot at x4…
I have windows also use the drive for the vertual memory. My system allows half of my memory for the GPU part of the chip…
Mine is the 45 watt, but a higher wattage will be a better player value…per usage.
The dedicated ram is better, but.
Is there anything else I should consider? I am not tech savy.
Open to suggestions for replacements and anything I should be cautious about.
If you’re going to get something pre-built, then your best bet is to open a discussion in Games, Gaming and Hardware or in the WoW subReddit.
If you’re getting a custom build, then the people building it will know what you need.
