CPU-bound: in World of Warcraft, a Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU caps you near 126 FPS regardless of graphics settings.
💡 World of Warcraft: Heavily CPU-bound in raids and capital cities; lower Particle Density and View Distance first - upscaling won't fix a CPU limit.

At 1080p expect around 126 FPS, at 1440p about 105 FPS, and at 4K roughly 80 FPS with optimized settings. World of Warcraft doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
