    WoW is so old I'm pretty sure graphics card drivers are probably well optimized for it already. I would say just stay with the newest unless you have issues with it.

    I wouldn't be worried. Since Cataclysm they have been using a new engine, which has significantly beefed up the requirements. I am not at all surprised that you can't get 60FPS in Orgrimmar or raids.
