Post your PC spec and your horrible framerate

[Perkel]

Q9300@3Ghz
HD6870
4GB of RAM

Getting anything from 50 fps in alone sector to 10 fps in stations.
No matter what i change in options my framerate stays the same.

i can switch to max res max options and framerate will just drop like 2-3 FPS.

AMD 6x 1055T 6x 2.8 GHZ

8gb Ram
max 20 frames away from stations
5-10 frames near stations

[Pruvmerong]

i5 750 2.66GHZ (quad)
HD 6850
8GB DDR3 1600

1280x800, all settings to minimum, vsync off, AA off. Also using high process priority.

Indoor stations - 10-25 FPS
Flying near stations or lots of ships - 15-25fps
Flying in empty space or around few objects - 25-40fps
Local highways - 10-20fps

[Arkta]

Ooh, this sounds like a fun game to play.

To reiterate:

AMD PII 2.8Ghz x6 core
GTX 560 OC'd
16GB DDR3 1600

Indoor Stations - 15 FPS Tops. Indoors are one of the biggest performance hits for me.

Flying near stations/large complexes - 25 FPS tops here too.

Flying in empty space or staring "away" so to speak gives me the best FPS. "Hey! Lets look out into nothingness!" Steady 30-40 FPS.

Highways and up - I'm usually "somewhat" stable here, but still nothing pretty to look at 25'sh FPS.

**EDIT: These frame rates stay the same across the board no matter the setting. Max reso and pushing full AA/SSAO might cost me a few FPS, but the difference isn't huge**

[Arkta]

I'd like to add, that being easily the largest complaint since release, the devs have been surprisingly very silent on this. They seem to be opting to take time to address things like gamepad functionality of all things instead(lol?).

i5 3570k
GTX 560 Ti with 314.22 driver
8 GB DDR3
SSD
1920x1200

I was getting awful performance until I updated to the 331.65 driver, after that my fps went from 6 to 25 at the same station with everything turned up to maximum. Still bad, but not unplayable.

Turning off SSAO added another 4 fps or so, changing the view and LOD settings did nothing. I'll keep tinkering, but if you're having trouble make sure your driver is up to date.

[Playbahnosh]

AMD FX-8150 8-core 8x3.2 GHZ
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 1600mhz
Sapphire HD6970 Toxic 2GB

1920x1200, every setting turned off or set to minimum, except SSAO ON, 2x AA (because the game looks like a pile of barf otherwise) and 10 on LOD. I get around 10-22 FPS, in emptier sectors it creeps up to around 28-35, but that's the highest.

This is pretty pathetic.

[LittleJP]

GTX 680 x 3
Intel Hawell 4770k @ 3.5 GHZ
16 GB RAM
Asus Maximus VI Motherboard

15 fps

20 fps if I drop everything to minimal settings.
I run ARMA III at higher rates at 5760 x 1080 and it at least looks pretty.

2x AMD FX 8120 8Core ~3.1 ghz
16 go ddr3 (4x4go)
SSD for os,
game in a raptor 10 000rpm
up to 1920x1200

-I basicaly have no problem in far space
-around 10 - 20 fps around all stations dépending of number of ships around
-low pick to 1 & 0.5 ! fps in highway when i'm at the top speed (boost by a really fast ship) At this point, it's like impossible to leave the highway as my descelerations don't fit with the actual screen. I descelerate before the quest marker say to.... but leave the highway 50 - 60km after the targeted spot...

I have reduce the distance render to minimum, remove shadows and downgrade anti alyasing, but this don't make the game much playable in some situation atm.

[Kevin2202]

Rome 2 Total War release was just as bad. And they had 4 times more larger team and 8 times more the budget. In this comparison, it's pretty damn impressive(?)(joke) for ES to even pull off such feat!

[Perkel]

IMO i think View Range is just broken. If you set it to minimum you still see shit ton of things that take 2 pixels each.

Getting view distance from 100 to 0 does almost nothing (like 3 FPS).

The PC is professionally maintained and performs extremely well for it's CPU's age.

Still... only 10-25fps on medium settings and at times stuttering as to not being able to shoot anything; this clearly sounds wrong.

Ok let me outline my spec first.

8 SSD Drives with a dedicated Raid card.
GTX 680 Nivida

Intel Core i7 3970X @ 3.50GHz

32 Gig Ram ddr3-1600

So I have a Big spec box.

Operating System WINDOWS 8 64bit with Classic shell front end.

It runs ok But Crashes with the most horrendous results.
In that I have to reboot the system RESET the Bios. I Re-initilise the Raid.

I have never had any issues with other games including Sims and First point shooters. Running at max Resolution on everything (1920 x 1200)
I will post the DXDIAG if you want it all drivers are upto date.

Terran Conflict runs great as does albion addon.

i7-2600 @ 3.4 GHz
12GB DDR 3 Ram

35-55 FPS

[Prosik]

I7 960 3.2
12 gb ram
Dual GTS 250 1gig total I think Dxdiag say 4gig but that is wrong.
Windows 7 SP1

Even running 2tb WD green drive.

Game seems to run fine here. No major frame rate drop that everyone is reporting.

the lowest frame rates I've seen so far was 15 at many times it's hovering from 20ish to 40ish, graphics setting at maximum with 4xAA

[Legionnaire]

I've asked in a few threads, but not got a response, how is everyone checking their FPS? is it something i cant find in game, or an external program?

Bare in mind this is on my little crappy laptop.

i7-3632
8Gig ram
AMD Radeon™ HD 7730M DDR3 2GB
Windows8 64bit
~30FPS while just flying around, 10-15 when near a big station or in combat. All graphic settings on low. Resolution still on the highest setting though

Averaging 25-45 fps throughout the game. Only about 40-60% GPU usage, which it what i guess is causing the problem.
