When I start getting pretty drastic FPS drops that usually means that my computer is filthy causing my core temp to be retardedly high (around 70-100C). Normally simply by blowing out everything with compressed air does the trick. But this time after thoroughly cleaning everything out in my tower and lowering my core temp to a reasonable 30-40C I still seem to be getting constant fps drops in games like DoD and CS but no real noticeable difference in more demanding games like payday 2 or RO2. I'm not the most tech savy person so I thought I would turn to my fellow nerds here on 1911.
my specs:
Intel Core i5-750 CPU @ 2.66GHz 3.49 GB of RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5700

Re: FPS help
Since I got this new comp (thanks laura) the only game I've had noticeable performance issues at times is DoD. It's just got some super shitty programming going on or something.

Re: FPS help
Stop pubbing on 475th's ava server and you won't suffer fps drops, at all.

I have my fps max at 65 but I'm getting drops that go down to around 30-40 fps. It makes maps like lennon almost unplayable.mogers wrote:What FPS do you have your game set at?

Re: FPS help
What is your monitor refresh rate set to? If you have vsync on, a generated fps drop to 59 fps will drop your displayed FPS to 30 to match your monitor refresh.badnewspanda wrote:I have my fps max at 65 but I'm getting drops that go down to around 30-40 fps.
