Both CPU and Memory(circumstance) I have found play a role in smooth gameplay. Anything outright eating your CPU usage and anything creating large expansive tables being iterated over on every frame(or once every second) are usually bad. These two things are found commonly in shaders and texture quality for game settings; in terms of addons this is often inventory tracking, logging, and nameplate scanning.

As stated by others I too turn shadows, shaders, and textures to a reasonable setting for my hardware. For addons I avoid, or customize, ones that log far too much or scan inefficiently.

If you happen to be using Tidy Plates, or most common nameplate addons, do not continue use. My computer is 8 years old so I know your struggle more than you might think.
