Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the high preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Around 40 FPS on high. Playable, but drop to medium or enable upscaling for a stable 60.
At 4K
Around 23 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
Upscaling
World of Warcraft: The War Within supports FSR. Your card supports FSR — Quality mode is worth 25–40% more frames. Compare upscalers.
