Zakalwe Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) My system: i5 2500k@4.1ghz Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Zotac GTX 670 Amp Ed (dynamic overclock) 8gig Corsair Vengeance Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD5 OCZ 90GB Agility 3 SSD OCZ ZS Series 750W Latest nvidia drivers. - No matter what I set it to (everything low/off or everything max), my framerates dip every now and then for absolutely no discernible reason.Heat of battle or just walking through an empty corridor. I have vsync enabled, and every 10 seconds or so it dips from 60 to 40 and shoots right back up giving very noticeable fps lag spikes. Same with vsync off, but that's even more unstable as it fluctuates between 40-120 or so. What are other people's experiences with similar set ups? Do you get constant 60fps, and if so what settings? Thanks very much Edited August 15, 2013 by Zakalwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much 1. take away that background color from the text and just make it default white like everything else 2.(x) untick the 64-bit mode on the client options , right beside X button 3. if that does not work then its clearly something on your end , im running this on a terrible system and getting around 70-90FPS i would imagine something is going faulty or something either that or its a software problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eulo Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) It's probably software. This whole game seems sloppily thrown together. It's the only game I play/own that runs inconsistently. This game is also not very graphically demanding -it's all lights and particles mostly, so it should run fine on Low-High end systems, only it doesn't. I have a friend who plays this game, on a very crappy, pre-build Dell pile of s..t, and it runs better on his than mine (I have a medium system). Why you ask? Good f..king question.

Zakalwe Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) Ok, a few things... 1. The text colour must have been because I cut and paste it from a profile on another site where it was already written out. I posted it from my phone and the thread looked perfectly normal when I did (all one colour). I understand it's annoying, but there's no need to be rude about it. :3 2. Un-ticking 64bit mode crashes the game. I press the play button and the screen goes black, then gives me a crash error. 3. This system runs BF3 on High/Ultra at 60fps The Witcher 2 High/Ultra 60fps, etc... my system is well maintained (drivers manually uninstalled and completely wiped each time they upgrade, all software is optimised including windows, all hardware is dust free and well ventilated). 4. My internet connection is perfectly fine. 10mbs, and very stable. We don't have any kind of problem with it in any other capacity.If it is a problem my end, I have no idea what it could be. I'd imagine it is on the game's end though as it used to run perfectly (pre update 7, last time I played) with everything maxed and no dips. As I said, I'm just curious what those of you with similar (perhaps even the same series of gpu) systems are experiencing.

Same problem here, got the same CPU but clocked @ 4,8 but I'm running a HD7950 OC'd. Already made a support ticket with all the logs but they couldn't resolve my problem yet. The problems started since U9 (especially in the Void and the new Phobos planet where my FPS drops from 150 in the beginning to 30?! after about half the mission especially when a huge amount of enemies spawn).

Saenol Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Zotac GTX 670 Amp Ed (dynamic overclock) Dynamic GPU clocks can cause odd issues sometimes, I would see if forcing things to a fixed clock speed smooths them out. im running this on a terrible system and getting around 70-90FPS Not all the time you aren't.

Flaming_Snake Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 From what I can tell, the game isn't very well optimised yet. I get major FPS drops and I'm running a 4.2Ghz 3930K with 32Gb RAM and 2 GTX670s in SLI. The next major update needs to focus on these things instead of only new content.

VER1 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 The game is going through some optimization teething problems at the moment. DE_Dimitri knows about them and does appreciate these reports. More reports, the more aware DE will be of the issues and hopefully resolve them sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakalwe Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Sanol, I have thought that, but then no other application or game has an issue like this. I'll look into stabilising it, see if it helps for now. Thanks for spurring me to try, even if it doesn't work. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

notlamprey Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Posting here as well in hopes that it gives DE another data point. AMD Phenom X4 955 @ 3.4GHz, 8GB RAM @ 1066MHz, Twin GeForce GTX460s, 2ndGen Intel SSD. I've tried tweaking process affinity, priority, enabling/disabling SLI, updating drivers (some of them made my PC prone to hard-locking), checking/unchecking "64-bit mode"... Nothing I've tried so far, including messing with various in-game display options, has yielded any apparent benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronRushBR Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Same problem here, got the same CPU but clocked @ 4,8 but I'm running a HD7950 OC'd. Already made a support ticket with all the logs but they couldn't resolve my problem yet. The problems started since U9 (especially in the Void and the new Phobos planet where my FPS drops from 150 in the beginning to 30?! after about half the mission especially when a huge amount of enemies spawn). Same same here... No reason... random framerate drop. I have a good computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YourGrandfather Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) I play Warframe on 2 devices. A laptop, and a desktop. Desktop is pretty old. Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5 Ghz 4GB DDR3 Ram 500HDD GTX 650 2GB DDR5 (Driver version 320.49) Laptop is the Asus G74S RoG Laptop. Intel Core i7-2670QM 2.2Ghz (Turbo boost up to 3.0Ghz) 8GB DDR3 Ram 1.5TB HDD GTX 560M 3GB DDR5 (Driver version 320.49) On my desktop, the game's performance on maximum settings is pretty smooth, with constant 50-60 FPS. Hardly have any FPS lags, except when i'm hosting a void session. On my laptop, maximum settings, the FPS varies from 20-70 FPS. And it lags pretty often. Empty corridor on a map, getting swarmed by enemies on defence, the FPS lags a lot. This didn't happen to me before Update 9. I was getting smooth constant FPS before update 9. Edit : I tried enabling and disabling the Direct X 11. Disabling it gets rid of the horrible FPS lag spikes. It runs quite smooth without Direct X 11. This reminds me of Batman Arkham City when it was just released. It had really bad Direct X 11 optimization and the game would stutter and give really bad FPS lag because of Direct X 11 features. Disabling it also made the FPS constant and have less lag spikes. Edited August 17, 2013 by YourGrandfather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastianx Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Processor: Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.2GHz Memory: 4096MB RAM Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 I run Crysis 3 maxed out at 30 FPS,no problem. I run Warframe in the lowest settings in the void (in certain conditions) 10 FPS. I run Warframe maxed out in the void (same conditions) 10 FPS. Seems to happen only when there's a hell of a lot of enemies being alive on the map. In any other areas I have 50+ FPS It's obviously not our video cards being unable to handle it,its just the CPUs,even my CPU's cores 1 and 3 work at around 80% in warframe in the conditions mentioned while cores 2 and 4 stay at around 10% :( That's the reason why I never use melee or semi-auto weapons in this game,unless they're really slow to begin with like the Snipetron V.

Strac_CRO Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I think it's latest GPU driver causing problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notlamprey Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I think it's latest GPU driver causing problems I'm still using GPU drivers from October of last year, and they haven't caused problems with Warframe or any other games I play. Honestly, all the newer GeForce driver versions I've tried have only introduced crash/stability problems. Potential driver issues aside, many of us can dig into Task Manager and see how poorly the game is working with our CPUs in (almost) real time.

Strac_CRO Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) With drivers 320.49 I had weird freezing of complete PC but no problems in warframe (i5 3550 + GTX550Ti + 8GB), every 20-30 sec. 5 seconds of freeze. I thought it was firefox and flash player. But than it continued even if I closed them. Than "GPU driver recovered" messages started to pop up on regular basis (while using Firefox, Chrome, Office etc.). I rolled back to 320.18. Now I have, just sometimes, 1-2 sec of screen freezing on Phobos levels. But it happens really, really rare (every 5th-7th mission, 1 temporary screen freeze, lasting 1-2 sec). But than again I haven't been using PC a lot (work, summer etc.) Edited August 19, 2013 by Strac_CRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiBBz Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not all the time you aren't. actually yes yes i am getting it all the time , if running solo but hosting it dips bellow 50 but never goes bellow 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chili_nor Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) The game is running extremely bad on my set up most of the time in a void mission it stays at 57 and might completely random jump up to 120+ and the GPU itilization stays at a lame 28% on both gpu's specs: i7 4770k @stock sabertooth z87 Gtx 780 direct CU2 in two way SLI 8GB 1600mhz memory (cl9) 2 TB divided on two Hdd's and a 840 SSD 120gb (i can rule out that there are no faulty parts since i have tested each one) Edited August 25, 2013 by chili_nor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakalwe Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 actually yes yes i am getting it all the time , if running solo but hosting it dips bellow 50 but never goes bellow 30 That's not good performance... 30fps is last gen console level performance. PCs of this calibre should be running a game like WF at over 60fps easily and consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
