Hey everyone, the game is really lagging only when the window is set to "Selected/Active." It returns to normal as soon as I switch to another app or my desktop. I restarted my PC, lowered the graphics settings, tried Window and Fullscreen modes, checked that the drivers are updated. From what I know, nothing has changed since yesterday when it wasn’t working well. I’ve attached a video showing the problem. My machine has a Ryzen 7 3700X, ROG B550-A, 32GB DDR4, Corsair Gigabyte 3070TI. Thanks for any assistance you can provide, Jack.

Your CPU and GPU activity appears typical, with no signs of rising frequency on the CPU. This pattern is consistent across quieter system areas as well.

I think there might be a configuration in WoW that limits your frame rate when the window is active or inactive. It could have been turned on and changed, leading to this issue.

Thanks for the odd note—it seems it was accidentally adjusted to zero.
