SecondHorseman Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 You will need better CPU, game is highly CPU-dependend i got normal FPS in high-populated areas - fleet etc - only when replaced i3-540 (overclocked to 4+ghz) with i5-750 (overclocked to 4.2 ghz) i had low (15-30) FPS with overclocked i3, turning shadows off helped a bit (+5+10 FPS) with i5 i have FPS mostly higher than 60 with shadows ON (sometimes - when game is reading from HDD - FPS is about 55 for 2-3 seconds) and i must say i have GTX570 and its load is about 60% with VSync ON, GPU overclocking seems doesn't affect FPS at all good luck ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quad core will be just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondHorseman Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 so could you ask your friend to post a message how did he or she manage to get high FPS on his/her computer forum is flooded with messages about low FPS on hi-level systems, i just posted my own experience, its for you to decide FPS with "high" settings on my i3 was low(but playable) in high-populated areas, fleets, warzones ets, but normal on most of the planets, excluding Taris so i played with all on "high" but with shadows OFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
