Indeed, the days of fire being useless for PvE are long gone. Frost mages might be twice as mana efficient as fire mages (depending on talent spec, of course) but as long as you keep yourself afloat fire offers some brilliant dps. Even more so with the new Burning Soul talent. :)
For a reference, this is probably how I'm going to spec after the patch:

It's a build with high damage, good threat reduction and low to moderate mana efficiency. It will still have me struggling to stay afloat with mana in long intensive fights like C'Thun, but that struggle, aside with aggro management, is what makes me love playing a mage.:)
