SteveTheCynic Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Much of the frame rate stuff in SWTOR is limited by the main CPU, not the graphics card. See this part of a post I made some time back. Press Ctrl+Shift+F to turn on the FPS display lower-left, and watch what it does. Not the numbers (although that might be interesting), but the colour: * Red = limited by the GPU * Green = limited by the main CPU * Red/Green flickering or solid Yellow = balanced For reference: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=4741512 especially the second post by BioWare staffer Cerimon (long since departed, I suspect). I'd hazard a guess that your meter will be stuck solidly in green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be any driver or driver conflict that causes a crash or freeze. Make sure that ALL your drivers - graphics, sound, chipset, network, etc - are up to date. You might also try resetting your CMOS or entering the BIOS/UEFI and loading defaults, to make sure there's no rogue timing issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
