WOW retail memory upgrade

Well, I'd never recommend mixing RAM speed, timing, or even brand, but people do it. So, to help avoid that, the specs of your RAM are going to be necessary to know in order to upgrade, but I am would always recommend that you find a kit that is sold together, as a single package, that fits your needs.

Furthermore, you'd need 32GB minimum in order to comfortably 5-box WoW Retail.

Speed VS Latency. Does wow like speed or latency considerably more than the other? There is quite a price jump to lowering timings and higher speeds.

Speed definitely plays a factor, and your best bet is likely going to be 3200MHz, but you can also aim for a standard CL16 timing, as well.

This, of course, assumes that your motherboard is capable of using an XMP profile (and 3200MHz RAM), and that your current overclock of 4.7GHz on the 6700K would still be stable with overclocked RAM.

I'd be curious if anyone testing shadowlands has noticed any signifigant changes in hardware stress there.

Unlikely, since 32GB is overkill for 5 accounts at 2-3GB for each game client, whereas 16GB is not enough.
