TheCy Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I was getting horrible FPS until I turned off SLI support. Maybe you should try that until nVidia releases new drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YooYooMa Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Maybe Bioware should hire competent programmers and use well-coded engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCy Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yes, because bioware writes graphics drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrage Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I only use one card and still have horrible FPS in Alderaan. Other warfronts are mostly OK. Even on low settings with no shadows this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabaker Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yep, same. Also i don't have Crossfire or SLI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexcyn Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Nice try but I have a single card and still have horrible FPS. Bioware really needed to optimize the engine a lot more but failed. I hope they have this as one of their top priorities for patching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabaker Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yeah, i don't really know how such a bad engine can make it trough beta. It's *********** Bioware and EA and they can't get make/get a good Engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercArcher Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I don't know of a single MMO that supports sli/crossfire. If you think you need 2 GPUs for an MMO you're doing something wrong. MMOs are all about CPU and RAM, not GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdswer Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 i get 60fps on my laptop on high settings, maybe some of you should try something on your end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPaq Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Maybe Bioware should hire competent programmers and use well-coded engines. You again? Little bit of knowledge here: . Bioware code to DX11 (DX9) API provided by Microsoft; . Gfx Card makers provide drivers to access their card thru that API; AKA: EA/BW is not responsible for your computer. And if you're complaining about FPS you do not have the competency to fix your computer correctly. Edited December 31, 2011 by IPaq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think you need 2 GPUs for an MMO you're doing something wrong. MMOs are all about CPU and RAM, not GPU. WOW supports SLI and has done for years. Its not a case of needing 2 GPUs, it whether or not Nvidia/AMD & the games developer can be bothered working together to create SLI/CF profiles for the game in question.

WoW did NOT support SLI for its first 4 years basically. And why would a company bother creating a SLI/CF profile when <1% of people actually use SLI/CF. SLI/CF were a good idea, but it never took off. Most games don't support it and it's pretty much a waste to have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidank Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Jesus, I'm an engineer and you people make me feel like a complete idiot. Can someone explain what sli/crossfire is? And how I can turn it off, my fps isn't great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Zefire_ Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Maybe Bioware should hire competent programmers and use well-coded engines. I agree to this.Balmora brings my gtx 580 sli to their knees at 38 fps. Who could believe that battlefield 3 at heavy fights runs at 75-80 which has lights ahead graphics and an mmo with 2002 graphics runs so freaking bad.

And how I can turn it off, my fps isn't great. It's a term used when reference to using two video cards hooked up together. SLI is for Nvidia and Crossfire for Radeon. Unless your using two video cards in your computer...no need to be concerned. You really donot need it for TOR. I am running a single Radeon 6850, settings on mostly high and the game runs smooth and great. TOR is more CPU intensive than GPU.
