My old 6800GT had no real problems in the game (with all settings maxed at 1280x1024), the only issues I ever saw were when there were an absolute ton of people/objects on the screen. Pretty much the only places where I saw this were Razorgore's room in BWL (there's ~30-ish eggs + 40 players + 40 mobs + 1 Razorgore ) and in Ironforge at the Commons (area between the AH and the Bank).
EDIT: Added that last area in.
