Hello everyone.
I'm having an issue with World of Warcraft. I have a Q6600 at 2.4ghz, 4GB of DDR2 1066Mhz Corsair Dominator RAM, an ATi radoen 4850, 700Gb of HD, an Asus P5Q motherboard and a 600w processor.
This is an ample rig for playing WoW, YET, i get a problem with my FPS quite often. Averagely, i get 36+. It's okey, not too awful, but, it should be higher. This is not the main problem though. Wherever I am, when i turn my camera around, roughly 45 degrees+ in to the turn, my FPS stutters alot. I get almost a freeze screen for a second, and then it goes to normal. After the full turn, when i do it again, i get a smaller stutter. For about 10 seconds, when i turn, it's all fine, no stutter. After that, it stutters again. In the middle of PvP, that second of freeze is enough for me to die due to my lack of reaction, and, in occassion frustration. It's getting very annoying, and, considering that the rig is built for gaming, surely, it should cope? I have got 3.5 MB broadband, and my MS hovers from 20-138MS. So, again, np there.
I've had a history of trouble with this PC. The main problem I had when i bought it was with it's DVD drive, replaced it, it's all fine. BUT, when i opened up the case, i realised that my rig was powered by 250w!! (never going to PC world again, btw, that was with a differant mobo, gfx card and RAM).
Anyway, to sort out the problem (or at least i tried) i ran an HD tech (or something can't remember) and it found no errors, i did a memtest for 12 hours, no problems. So, I'm stumped, save for this: my boot time seems awfully slow. I have a laptop with vista, and it boots far faster. It's always been slow, even before I replaced anything, and i noticed no differance with my new RAM. A technician i employed to install my mobo said that he "wiped" the PC, but, i can't guarantee he re-installed a DIFFERANT version of vista. I want to buy vista 64 bit, and I hope that will sort it out, but, I'm not sure, any ideas?
Other problems, possibly related:
- Low FPS in Age of Conan (6-10), however, if i change a setting, E.g resolution, and then, change it back, it goes high, (40-60).
- World in Conflicts FPS is low in large battles, very, very low. No improvement since new RAM
-Crysis APPEARS to run ok on high settings, with very little losses of FPS. In Warhead, there seems to be slightly less FPS, and more stuttering.
Anyone have any idea what the problem is? Could it be my hardware, software, anything like that? Please try and get back to me.
