8.1 Changes, can no longer maintain 5 Windows

[JohnGabriel]

My 5 box setup took a bit of a performance hit as well, still using DX11. Everything is still playable but there is some stutter now and then.

As per Google's instructions I ran dxdiag and it says that my version is DirectX 12.

So obviously WoW thinks my system is not capable of DX12. I am running an i7 which I though had hyperthreading, wonder if I should just try DX12 and see what happens.

That is just what the Windows OS is reporting.

Still shows DX11 though in all my settings.

It's a setting in the game, so just change it to DX12 in the Advanced section if you want to use DX12. In addition to capable hardware, you need to be using Windows 10 if you want to take advantage of DX12, but obviously WoW can use either 11 or 12 seeing as not everyone who plays the game on Windows, is using Windows 10.
