High FPS Readings and Computer Overworking
Sabretusks
✭✭✭
So, starting a few weeks ago the computer sounded like it was working a bit too hard in Delves and housing areas. Now as I play more, the FPS readings are going through the roof until the computer eventually shuts off. I'm now on the 2nd iteration of me having completely uninstalled and reinstalling the game. I've had the same problem without add-ons turned on, and again where the addons have been completely uninstalled. Is anyone else having this issue, and is there a known solution?

Sabretusks✭✭✭I should add that I actually uninstalled all the addons and still ran into the same problem.

jasonleitch1_ESO✭✭✭I do not have that particular runaway FPS issue but can offer a couple a possible solutions.
The first options to try/check would be the UserSettings.
1. Open UserSettings (Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live)
2. Look for SET MinFrameTime.2 (can use Ctrl+F to bring up the find, type in minframe, then enter)
3. MinFrameTime.2 should be set to 1/(monitor refresh rate).
60 Hz=1/60=0.01666667
120 Hz = 1/120 = 0.00833333
144 Hz= 1/144=0.06944444
4. Save and close UserSettings.
The second option would be to try and limit the FPS using either the Nvidia Control Panel (or the AMD version). As I have Nvidia this applies to Nvidia cards.
1. Open the Control Panel (Nvidia)
2. Manage 3d Settings
3. Choose eso64.exe (you may have to add the program if it does not show)
4. Scroll down to Max Frame Rate and set the value.
5. Apply and close the Control Panel.
Hopefully this helps.PC/NA: Pentar Stonedrake (mag sorc) - Undefined (technically my main)

This worked for me. I had out of control fps (200-300+) and when I set max to 58 my computer was happy again.

✭✭Since last update there is an issue with UserSettings when it randomly overrides SET MinFrameTime.2 settings with zeroes which completely unlock FPS (default cap is 100 FPS)PC | EU | DC |Stam Dk Breton0
