I dont know what screencard you got but ATI have this nice controlcenter (catalyst) where you can adjust screencard settings to override game settings, im sure every screencard got a tweakingprogram like that.
Anyways, start wow and type name password, then adjust detailsettings down until you reach max fps in the charselection screen.

Like, i use 2x antialiasing, not 6x (dont notice difference ingame), 2x and not 16x anisotropic filtering, mipmap set to performance not quality.

Try turning down those settings, check for each step you do in wow if the screenrate goes up or down, if it doesnt change when you turn down one detailsetting, then leave the best quality setting on ofc. In a game like wow you dont notice difference, atleast i didnt notice anything after turning down from full to minimum settings in screencard. Ingame everything is still on full, like view distance and stuff, thats no problem.
