    I was running some tests tonight, and I figured that I'd see how much CPU my clients were eating up. Surprisingly enough, not very much at all.

    2880x1620 x5 / 60/15 FPS / DX11 / Ultra Preset / ~10% CPU
    2880x1620 x5 / 60/15 FPS / DX11 / High Preset (SSAO Low) / ~10% CPU

    Obviously I'm not in a large-scale battle, but Elwynn Forest is a great place to push your hardware if you can't access Pandaria or Draenor. You can see both the Task Manager, as well as the overlay in the bottom left of the main game client to see what loads were on my hardware. Also, I agree with the others... If you can't figure out what's pegging six cores at 100%, then throwing two additional cores at it is unlikely going to fix much of anything.

    Just to be clear, we are talking about the retail version of World of Warcraft, correct? Playing on a private server is not going to be the same as retail WoW, and therefore wasting everyone's time and effort in assisting you.

    In addition to a diagnostic, a capture state may also prove useful. As per Lax's instructions:

    In the in-game ISBoxer Control Panel; press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+G to bring it up and click the debug tab (all the way to the right), then click CaptureState. This does a Copy with some info for you to Paste. Things like the resolution of each window, the game window size, whether it's set to fullscreen or windowed, etc.
    Then paste it to pastebin for us to look at.

    Do not send me a PM if what you want to talk about isn't absolutely private.
    Ask your questions on the forum where others can also benefit from the information.
