What a cool thread, one guy asks for advice on his PC and we are about to hit 20 pages. Most people helpful and nice.

Maybe there is hope for this community afterall

This is in full-screen (windowed) at 1920 x 1080 resolution and on max settings.

20.3 FPS in an area that used to be about 1 or 2 FPS. Lowering my settings will increase it I'm sure.

That area was UNPLAYABLE and I'm on max settings. I normally play on medium settings since this game is hardly optimized enough to be completely smooth on max. That was also in full screen (windowed) with a second monitor up.

Fullscreen (not windowed) with second monitor turned off in windows resolution menu, at medium settings. 59 FPS

Before I upgraded my RAM I couldn't play this fullscreen (not windowed) on lowest settings with shadows completely off.

Not sure if you have, but if you turn off shadow you will get a massive increase in FPS

They were on low in that screen shot. I'd say 59 is good enough for me. I can play now!

See you guys! And thank you to everyone who was constructive and kind.

66fps -

17.7 fps

Those are practically the same screenshot, same settings.

If the OP had to jump down into the firefight below, his fps would crumble to low teens. It might fix itself temporarily if he alt-tabs, but it always drops down to the shocking low fps in that area.

This is fact, and the OP knows this is fact.
