    It might surprize you to know but it's a simple fix, you would think i wouldn't lag with my rig (below) but before i upgraded my Platter HDD to an SSD, it made a HUGE differance. The sluggish framerates were due to my HDD constantly looking for information as characters, PC/NPC were showing up as i was running/they were running to me, ever since i have had everything maxed with 60fps.

    Intel Core i7 2600k @ 5.1ghz - Noctua NH-D14
    4GB RipJaw 2133 7-8-7-16
    Dual Radeon HD 5970 O.C Core: 850 Mem: 1200
    120GB Corsair Force SSD R: 260MB/s | W: 270MB/s
    Corsair Professional 1200W

    Before i would run into Gridania or some camp with a hand full of people and i would have to come to a complete stop to let it catch up, i noticed early on that my HDD indicator was lit up contantly, my frames rates seemed to increase but a tad, when i say a tad, i mean the old HDD (7200rpm platter) made my frame rates dip from 60 solid to 30-45 for several seconds or until i stood still, it would continue to fall behind until it evetually stuttered, this was maxed out as well, now i can't even tell if someone is coming towards me and it's a nice change.
