I would highly recommend NOT using realtime priority, this will cause WoW to compete for CPU power with device drivers and system required processes. Realtime should only be used for your operating system and whatever active drivers you have for hardware. As a few of the previous posters said, this will cause keyboard/mouse/video lag, and even the occasional freeze or crash.

Overclocking is also an option, although many say it's a risky procedure. Personally I think overclocking your video card isn't very risky or difficult, and can have some pretty significant effects on gameplay!

If you're interested in overclocking, my preferences are ATItool and RivaTuner(google them, i'm not here to advertise other sites). Both of these require little to no technical knowledge, just a few mouse clicks and it will automatically find your max core and memory, as well as test for errors. The only thing you'll be required to do yourself is check the temperature of your card by whatever means you have(if you have a low-end card without sensors, which i'm assuming you do if you need to overclock it) to ensure it's still properly cooled.

Keep in mind, overclocking WILL NOT SOLVE CONNECTION LAG. Don't bother overclocking your system to still find yourself lagging on your 56k connection, it won't help anything.
