However, Blizzard has come out to say that they will not action accounts that are using a copy of WoW.exe with LAA enabled. That said, I haven't noticed any real difference between LAA and non-LAA executables.
This is probably one of those exceptions to the rule. I have 6gb RAM and the campaigns still chug horribly later into the game
Generally speaking you won't see any performance gain going above 4gb RAM - A more noticeable step up is from 2gb to 4 but again it is fairly dependent on the game(for instance anything running on an old engine like source will be fine either way)
MMOs typically use more RAM that single player or FPS do, but this is not set in stone based on how the game was optimised.

This is also true. Unless you are looking at really high end RAM it isn't going to put too noticeable a dent in your pocket. Truth be told I went to 6gb just because I could.

I would imagine your VRAM has the biggest part to play in running any of the higher end detail settings.
I have 4GB of RAM as well and my RAM usage never goes up above 79%. Here's a scenario: I'm using 79% RAM, launch a game (which takes forever because my HDD light is constantly on) and I'm still at 79% while playing the game. So it may have something to do with that but I don't have a technical explanation for it. I'd like to hear one though.
