Wow isn't a very demanding game by today's standards... it will run on a potato. That being said... The one thing I would question about your setup is the 4070.

I would think that it would be fine for WoW at 4K 60 fps... but I can't verify. What I can tell you is that I have no issues at 4K 60 fps at max 10 Ultra settings across the board with a 4090 on my 4K OLED.

WoW being as easy on systems as it is I would think the 4070 would be fine though.

Also... I'd probably bump the storage and PSU up just a tad.
 
Here's a few changes to your build to consider.
