The game has been running horrible. I am freezing in highly populated areas (Dalaran, Alterac Valley, Wintergrasp) and I am running very choppy on flights. Running through cities it gets choppy as well.

I will be reformatting my entire system this weekend however is there anything else I should know? Is my 2 year old computer out of date to play this game?

Hello Vapori,


I would add 2 GB more RAM to be honest...

3GB Memory Best for Dalaran and Wintergrasp

Also are you running any fan control programs on your iMac as well cleaning out the vents to make sure they are clear of dust accumulation ?
