Change the mana gem glyph.
Frost is otherwise very hard to mess up.

for pve? you don't need ice barrier/shattered barrier.. there's 3 points there.
also, if I were you, i'd max out spell impact before maxxing out arcane meditation.. frost is already ridiculously mana efficient
edit: i played around with the tree a bit, and
this
is what I would go with

I've gone for like 15minutes on a dummy and i wasn't even close to running OOM, Frost doesn't need to worry about going oom like arcane mage. Definitely stick with Molten armor glyph, you'll need the crit because frost doesn't do as much damage, of course you'll be critting alot because of FoF procs, but still, more crit is nice, especially since you don't need to worry about mana (especially in a raid with the BoW and Replishment going on)
As for Ice Barrier, i'd definitely take it. It stops the knock back from damage while casting. Which is great.
Frost doesn't have the damage, but it definitely bolsters better defences, which is handy in some fights that take alot raid damage.
I know that even before this patch, i'd usually go into frost for the Black Knight fight if the group was having troubles, just for the extra protection, the elemental, and to be able to kite all the adds around, that's what the frost mage is all about.

why do we need crit in frost ?
Because its at least a 10% overall
Fully Raid Buffed
dps increase, as shown by in-numeral dps-charts.
Here is the Frost Spec I've been running with these past few days.
TaDa
Going to respec tomorrow to adjust it a bit and try out the differences without Brain Freeze, and drop those points into Icy Floes for a boost to Icy Veins and such.
*As a note on people that use or may use Brain Freeze, never cast the spell when you have an FoF proc, it is a slight/moderate loss in dps.

Ok not bad but why wouldnt you take cold snap? An extra icy veins in a fight is pretty good.
I'd drop arcane meditation adn put 1 point in enduring winter. All you do is shoot frost bolts pretty much, there is no reason to have 3 points there. Also not much reason to take Imp. bliz over cold snap and cold as ice.
