I am totally dumbfounded.

[TraXeL]

I just got and installed a brand spanking-new 9800GTX+ and latest drivers. My eyes popped out when I logged on in Dalaran and saw 9 FPS.

WTH?

I should’ve bought anti-wow-addiction pills intead.

 

[Magnarmalok]

yea its a known prob for alot of ppl they need 2 fix it soon

 

[d3th_n1gG4]

i get 50fps in dal with my settings/res maxed, try nuke all your addons and look at your fps, with QH installed i was getting around 12

 

[TraXeL]

nay....still 9-12FPS. Loads way faster though.

 

[Gangrel]

What CPU do you have.... I have a feeling that quite a few framerate issues are CPU related.

 

[DeadCore]

how do u see your FPS?

 

[TofuMofu]

I have a 9600GT and get 9FPS as well in Dalaran.

I can tell you though, that my CPU is the problem. I have a 3800+ Dual Core AMD which is about 4 years old and screaming for a replacement

 

[d3th_n1gG4]

i have a e7300 and as I said I was getting that sort of fps pre removing QH and reinstalling my mods, i removed my cfg dirs as well to clean everything up and suddenly it shot up

 

[noswal]

how do u see your FPS?

In game, press ctrl R or just mouse over the computer symbol in your UI

 

[Grimis]

make sure you shadows are not set to full, the top 3 sections are for testing purposes and should be removed, they will own any gfx card.

should have bought an ATI

hope that is a lesson well learned ?

 

[TraXeL]

sigh....

I'm going to totally reinstall the game. I've threatened to do that for a long time now since i use the US version to play on EU servers. Luckily a friend of mine provided me with all the discs/patches.

Ons sal maar sien of die fps die selle bly.

Apart from WoW, every other pc-game runs smoothly, even on ultra settings(50fps+). I'll report if there's any difference.

before you reinstall

delete your interface, cache and config(wtf?) folders and try it

 

[zippy]

before you try and reinstall, disable all your addons. I had problems with some. I think Questhelper and some map addons can be pretty harsh on latency.

I still have issues in Dalaran. When I log on in Dalaran, its horrendous. Also when I hearthstone into Dalaran. This normally lasts for a few seconds, then fps seems to stabilise to a decent level. Outside of Dalaran its no problem.

I did that...no change...

I also did that and yes, my fps went up 25-29. Then i took a good look at that folder. Omg, 3 years of crap collected there, especially the "saved variables" folder. (90meg). old mod's data that's no longer in use.

I'm still going to re-install though. Maybe squeeze out a view more fps.

 

[d3th_n1gG4]

yep, saved vars is a cow :/

He has a tauren in his folder?
