PC performance issues - system review

[Bollwerk]

The only change I made was upping the view distance to Good.

One one toon or all of them?
Are you using one monitor or more?
What size monitor(s)?

As a comparison, I 5-box on one PC as well:
Intel Core 2 Q6600
8GB RAM (Win 7x64)
64GB Crucial Real SSD C300 (on 6.0 GB/s SATA)
Nvidia GTX 280
30" LCD

I still have to have everything set to the lowest graphics settings and only ONE toon can have "good" view distance when in populated areas. Even so, I STILL end up having around 10FPS in places like Stormwind. Keep in mind too that WoW runs MUCH better on Intel procs than AMD. See my other thread for more info.
