0 AeonsLegend 382 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) That's definitely not right. I get overall 60 fps with vsync. My rig is a year old now: Windows 10 64 bits Intel Core I7 5930K 32GB ram GTX 980 I think there's low FPS fixes on the forum. It has nothing to do with your system I'm sure.

0 Suen 161 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 (edited) There is a FPS slider in the game video options, but PoE minimum frame rate cap is 30, not 22fps. You can look at the register to check the game settings: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Obsidian Entertainment\Pillars of Eternity MaxFrameRate_h2741477806 1e = 30 fps ffffffff = uncapped A cap of 22 is so low that suggests something else is interfering: a battery boost, a performance monitor with "optimizing" options, a energy saving profile.

0 slash 0 Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 Ok, i'm not sure what happens. When i said locked, i swear that whatever i was doing the fps (msi afterburner, Nvidia Share) was displaying 22 fps no more no less i tried another game, running fine... (farcry 4, bf4) @60+ Today i have an average 70 fps on Pillars... I'm very curious on what happened. I Don't lock the thread because i want to know why i can run Pillars @70 or @22, to eventually find some clue that may help others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Ben No.3 505 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Did it actually run at 22 fps? Or did it show you it ran at 22 fps and you got sort of an placebo effect, thinking it actually ran at that speed? Maybe the measuring was the problem, not the game... at least that is what happened to me once Edited October 30, 2016 by Ben No.3 Quote Everybody knows the deal is rotten Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton For your ribbons and bows And everybody knows Link to post Share on other sites
