Planetside 2 - GPU or CPU Intensive?

[EucleX]

I have played PS2 on my PC that has an A4 5300 and an ASUS 7770 2gb and I get 20-60 FPS depending on the situation (Medium settings). Does this mean PS2 is CPU intensive?

Planetside 2 is very CPU intensive. If you press alt+f while in game it'll show your FPS and what is bottlenecking your fps displayed as either [cpu] or [gpu].

Alright thanks! Better upgrade my processor

You're welcome. To be fair, both components could use an upgrade for this game depending on the settings you wish to run, but this will help you identify which is giving you a bigger problem.

Also note that PS2 isn't the most optimized game out there. It's come a long ways since it was released, but there is still room for improvement.

Best of luck!

Planetside 2 is quite RAM and CPU intensive but doesn't require much GPU
