Poor FPS with high-end rig?

[cakeythelie]

I had the same issue with sli 680s. Try to monitor your CPU speed and GFX speed. This is how I found out my CPU was not outputting 100% sorry that I can't help much more than that I hope you find out what is bogging the game down for you.

I've tried everything possible to improve game performance but to no avail.Thing is,people with GTX 780 or GTX 670 in sli all complain of really poor FPS so it has to be something in the game somewhere.

Have you tried various drivers old and new? That's about all I can think of at this point :-/

keep in mind, your cpu will run slower if it is overheated. make sure it is 60 celcius or below

I get:

Low fps on high settings high-pop servers.

High fps on high settings on low-pop servers

High fps on normal settings on any server.

GTX570 latest drivers blah blah blah.

Here's the weird thing... if I alt-tab out and back in my vid card goes down to 2D mode until I reboot my machine. Power settings are always on, etc. I'm definitely not new to vid card configs.

Certainly sounds like a nice rig. What are you running now?

@Cakeythelie - Currently running at high performance. I am thinking the issue is away from power management.

Atm I'm running phenom ii x4 850 @3.5Ghz, 8gb RAM, GTX 460 1gb SLI, very average system, Was a great gaming rig when I bought it but it's getting very outdated with the current games coming through. Had a great few years with it,never let me down but I think it's time to trade in for a better setup

Game ran fine for me before the last update, now objects start freaking out and blinking when I get near them. Thought maybe it was an sli issue but I dunno.

I am running the following listed below. I pretty much stay at 60 fps unless it is some crazy ass fate with AOE spamming and then I drop to low 40s. Also if it is a super congested area I may drop into low 50s for a short bit.
Have not over clocked anything yet as I am still learning how to properly do that. CPU has H100i cooler on it and does not break 58 celcius during game. So far GPU has not broke 63 degrees.

I think it might be worth mentioning that it's not everytime I play that I get a complete shut off of my PC. Last night I played for 6-8 hours without a sniff of trouble.I played for 2 hours this afternoon and boom power off. So perhaps not an overheat problem? How confusing >.<

SE's console roots are showing through. They don't use multi-cores well at all. My CPU usage runs from 80-90% with this game on an i5-3570K,

[Discordia]

In cities using the Standard graphics options, I get anywhere from 40-50 and 30-40 if I'm running on maximum.

My frames seem very jumpy and unstable.

My specs are:

GPU: GTX 670
CPU: i5-3570k @ 3.4 ghz
PSU: 750W
RAM: 8 GB

Is the game somewhat unoptimized?

I haven't read any complaints from others on this subject.

I run this game on an i5-4670K, GTX660, 16GB RAM, 250GB SSD - have not had any framerate issues outside of the random TDRs (Timeout Detection and REcovery) I do run into some heating issues as at times my cooling system on the GTX660 goes into overdrive, producing clacking sounds as the heat pipes vibrate from increased RPMs from the 2 on-board fans. I plan to address this by adding additional air intake (I have only 1 fan at the front of the case and plan to double that) Otherwise, motherboard and CPU temps are nominal, maybe the PSU is running a bit warmer.
Everyone needs to make sure they have updated BIOS for their motherboard if their system is unstable (unexplained sudden reboots-system shutdown, for example) Also make sure you run a complete virus scan. Updated drivers for audio components as well as your graphics card is a must. If you own a PC, then it falls on your shoulders to make sure you maintain it, and that means both in the virtual sense as well as the physical (e.g., clean up dust build-up)
