Any new tricks on FPS ?

rteezy

I know this doesnt belong here, but general forums do get more visability (inb4 moved...)

I have na i5 3,4 (oc to 3,8), gtx 970, 16 gb ram and a crappy very old harddrive

I used every trick and change i could find for the fps increase ( ini.settings file changes, unparked cpu,nvidia coontrol panel settings, high priority process...etc..e.tc)

i got to a point where i have very steady 60 fps everywhere, still working on some stuttering (been messing with the NUMJobs setting, sometimes it seems to make it go away) .My fps can be up to steady 80-90 but i only have a 60hz monitor so it creates alot of tearing, therefore it looks/feels better with the vsync on nvidia settings turned on.


Now, i can handle lower fps in cities...but it really sucks in cyro! Some people say my crappy harddrive(not even SSD) is bottlenecking my computer.
I would REALLY like to have them more stable in cyro, so many poeple can do it with computer stats similar to mine (even streamers WHILE streaming..)

Because in the end, despite game mechanics and balance and pvp shanennigans, one thign that will REALLY ruin your gametime is crappy fps...

Anyone know anymore tweaks that really worked for them on improving fps in cyro ?

( i tried lowering some settings , changing quality seems to ahve zero impact...i lwoered the rendering distanc eto very cvery low(like 40) and the particles thign is down to the very minimum. turnign off grass and bloow and all those other settings at the bottom makes zero diference as well)

I want to follow this up. I have i7 4770, 8gb ram, gtx 970 and a 500gb SSD

My fps drops below 20 when on trial boss fights.

I would say get at least a SSD harddrive, but other I don`t know, I am not so much info IT knowledge


but Cyro is laggy, I guess it is not only the fault of your computer, but more of ZOS

If your not gaming on an SSD, then your crying in your cornflakes.

First, it’s the i5. Second, if you’re getting stutter above 30fps, it’s not your Framerate that is causing the stutter. Without vsync, it’s pretty hard to avoid screen tear unless you have a newer monitor. Never use the games vsync. Nvidia always has better vsync. You should probably focus more on stability than on frames. Stutter can be a loading issue for sure. Clean your drive. Wipe anything you don’t need, virus scan, cclean it, then defraggler, and make sure the defrag is set to the setting that defrags everything. It could take 12 hours but it does a good job. Once the drive is smooth, and you can rule that out, you’ll probably be limited by the i5. View distance and shadows are the biggest killer of FPS and can cause huge stability issues when loading other stuff. I suggest finding something inbetween stable and ugly.
