whilberto Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) I just can't believe it, I am by no means a computer expert but I feel like my rig shouldn't drop to 18 fps in warzones(I've tried a plethora of settings) CPU- Intel i5 4690k Gpu- nivida evga 760 2gb I also have the game stored on an ssd Another weird thing is that streaming seems to have no affect on my fps but the stream appears to be a solid 30 fps I always loved this game and after a two year hiatus I came back with a new rig only to find I get poor fps in warzones Any help will be much apricated "you're my only hope" (16-24fps during combat in warzones) Edited January 8, 2016 by whilberto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn your UI off and you will see the fps shoot up. It is a poor design from both the Hero Engine and Bioware. The only thing that combats this, is to have the fastest cpu processor speed per core that you can afford.

whilberto Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 So I goto o/c this bad boy? I'm pretty sure 4690k is the strongest i5 on the market atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holocron Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 So I goto o/c this bad boy? I'm pretty sure 4690k is the strongest i5 on the market atm Yes overclocking would help. The faster you can get the base clock cycle, the better. The Hero Engine website even talks about how the CPU plays a large roll in their engine, but a lot of swtor players don't know this.

Knockerz Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) The most optimal set up for swtor or any other mmopg is to have a water cooled and overclock computer. Edited January 8, 2016 by Knockerz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
