Update, the card does it with battlefield 4 but not with world of warcraft, could it by my 800 watt psu is to small?

Should be enough, card can pull up to 375watt at factory clock.
Red logo = 100% load 🙂

and then reinstall latest.

Try set same voltage and frequency for memory on 2D and 3D with GPU Tweak.
