FPS problems in DoTA 2.

[OJDylan]

I can play The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim on full 60 fps on medium settings and yet I'm experiencing unstable fps in DoTA 2 even at the lowest setting. The lowest settings will still perform the same as if it were at medium or mid-high settings at around 40-50 fps (which is unplayable for me because I normally prefer games to run on 60 fps). Fps would constantly change. At the start of a game, I would get around 60-70 fps but as time goes on, it runs on 40-50 fps and would occasionally drop to 30 fps during team fights, and not being able to keep a stable 60 fps (at low-medium settings). V-sync is already turned off and most of the extra settings are kept off for example, specular, high quality waters and world lighting. I only have normal maps and high quality dashboards turned on. There are no background applications running when I play the game.

I'm using the ASUS ROG G20BM Gaming desktop
Computer Specs:
Windows 10
AMD Quad Core Processor FX-770K
R9 255 Graphics Card
8GB of RAM

Edit: Lowering resolution does not help improve performance. It would still be the same for every resolution. I'm running on 1600x900.

Probably has to do with your pretty horrible CPU. Try seeing if disabling all the crapware you likely have in the background helps (if it's not dota 2 or windows, it shouldn't be running when you test)

Thank you for your reply. Would try your solution and get back to you.
