Limited data. World of Warcraft runs very well natively at a median 120 fps (1 report) on M4 Pro. Only 1 report so far, so this is not a reliable verdict yet.

Review Note:
Playing WoW on a 4K monitor at 60-70% scaling is a great experience! All graphics settings are on High, with the following settings at 5/5/5:
- View Distance: 5
- Environment Detail: 5
- Ground Clutter: 5
I get around 120–140 FPS in the open world, around 100 FPS in Silvermoon, up to 100 FPS in Mythic+ dungeons, and 80–100 FPS in raids.
To maintain stable FPS, I use Macs Fan Control, with the fans running at around 4,500 RPM. Higher fan speeds provide more stable FPS, but at the cost of increased noise.
