I run an Intel i7 and have no fps issues

i7-4770k with dual 290x, 16GB RAM - No issues
FX-8350 with 7950Ghz, 8GB RAM - No issues
FX-6300 with dual 7770, 4GB RAM - No issues
Phenom 2 X6 with Geforce 670, 4GB RAM - Issues

Haven't tried since patch on any system. Will update if there is a difference.

I would suggest try Googling your GPU?

Yeah...Google your GPU model and you can find the specs if you don't know them..

Or... you can just run DxDiag, which is much easier and will give you an actual result for your hardware.

Just type dxdiag in your start menu search bar and hit enter.... when the window pops up, choose the display tab. Your GPU info is right there.

This dicussion and poll is completly unnecessary...

Before Patch 1.2.3 for everything was working relativly nice for everyone in Cyrodil, regarding FPS. They have introduced some new lightning model, and maybe also some new way how to handle particles. Particles are mostly emmted from healing skills but also from some other skills.

For my part i have no issue with cyrodil, playing it for 5 up 120 Minutes - everything works fine....perfect FPS...after some time the client get in some kind of bad state, and lowers the GPU ressources. We have no CPU or whatever issue here, just somekind of bad programming

There's a factor missing from this poll that could make it misleading. How many folks that are not experiencing any FPS issues are spending any time in Cyrodiil?

I haven't experienced any FPS issues in PvE. Only in Cyrodiil around medium-large scale battles.

If it was bad programming would it not be effecting everyone? When, clearly it isn't. Not saying there isn't some bad code or optimization somewhere but, just seems like more people would be having the problems.

It started happening for many after the new lighting patch which points directly at that patch.

To be clear...we are talking about FPS Issues in Cyrodil or in Genral? i have none in every PvE Area. But still a lot in Cyrodil, that leads to the conclusion it has to be a bad code issue. And that was already comfirmed by ZOS - but it seems also the new patch does not fix it...

You should turn them up to high if you're getting 50fps on medium. No one can really see a difference in fps after 30, but high shadows make a big difference for small objects like grass.

I have an Nvidia 560m and run everything on high. I get between 20-25 fps and the game looks great without any input lag. I don't get why people are so obsessed with fps since the eye can't really detect that many frames going by (unless they were playing in 3D).

I don't know how you can play with 20-25FPS you should lower your configs to get a decent FPS dude... Why people still say that "the human eye can't notice diferente between 30, 40... 60 FPS in games"
OFC theres a lot of diference. Check it: http://boallen.com/fps-compare.html

I realy prefer play with ugly graphics with a good FPS than play with that lag.

Can hit 80 FPS, then move a few meters and it drops down to 7 FPS, then 30, 40 and so forth. Open areas, dungeons, cities. No pattern.

Interesting poll results.

When I made this poll my intention was to see if there was any pattern with major PC components in users who experienced FPS drops (PvP or PvE) and those who didn't.

However, to clarify, I do NOT think the core problem is that of end-user. We can all agree the latest patch gave many users a significant drop in performance.

The perplexing question to me is, why do some users get hit with the issue while others do not? At first I thought maybe it is a CPU issue... perhaps the latest patch wasn't optimized for certain instruction sets or maybe it was inefficiently threading across multiple CPU cores...

Or maybe it was a memory issue primarily, or perhaps an operation system...


I would love to know what it is exactly that I could change / upgrade / or modify to get things more smooth while Zenimax sorts things out...

Low textures and shadows are much more noticeable. Most games only run at 30fps and most HD TV's only play at 30fps. The game is much more beautiful in HD than at a higher frame rate. And like I said, I don't notice any input lag at all. The obsession with a high frame rate is a little ridiculous.

I said I have no issues, but I do have *SOME* slowdown. I get down into the low 20s where I used to be upper 50s. I said "i get no issues" because my problem seems to be far less pronounced and much more manageable than those others seem to be having.

There are just too many different combinations of computer components for everyone to have the same issues and probably makes trouble shooting it from their end very difficult. If we all had the exact same computers we would probably all have very similar issues that would be easier to fix.

I would first disable all of your add-ons then just mess around with all your settings. After that, if it's running ok, re-enable add-ons one at a time and see if performance drops.

Everything is at Max settings, as Geforce Experience has recommended. I also play in Windowed mode, max view. I like having my taskbar visible as I can see my local time and change songs on winamp without having to alt-tab out.


I looked up the i7-3770k and it's only a 1.4% improvement on performance over an i5-2550k for more than $150 difference, just didn't seem worth getting.

I'm running on an intel i5 2.3ghz, 4 gigs of RAM (not sure how many mega hertz) & an nvidia 550m. It's not so much of an FPS issue, as it is objects and textures failing to load properly in the world since patch 1.2.3. Rather game breaking considering I'm constantly being killed by invisible enemies and/or i'll hitting a load screen in the middle of combat, only for the load to complete and to see my character has died during the down time. I'm a loyal subscriber though (six months in advance) and just hope this issue is fixed so I can get back into the game.

So you put no "other" choice thus leaving people with older cpus unable to vote nor see the poll results unless you fake the vote. Wich means, how many will have done it so far?

Id say worst poll, but it would barely be the worst poll of the hour. Not that much of an achievement.
