What are your system specs? Also, FPS drop is a natural occurrence, if for example, you are panning from a sparsely populated area to an intensely populated area or an area where many spell effects, or, a lot particle clutter is happening.

That Intel card is integrated and not used for gaming if you have a dedicated card, which you do.

You'll drop from 60 down to 55-58ish during camera rotations. Thats perfectly normal, it should fix itself once you've adjusted.

My suggestion if its freezing is to make sure you have other programs closed, not too many browser windows open while running WoW.

I have the same issues (and same graphic card). I tried to put everything on low, removed every addons but fps keeps dropping each time I rotate the camera to a point where it freezes... I also tried running the game in compatibility mode but it didn't change anything.
I suspect a problem with the client (which is 10 years old) and my Graphic card...
