Thank for the help guys - I'm just double checking my driver updates and if that doesn't work I will look into the graphics cards you have recommended. I didn't build the PC myself I don't really have the know how, I got it ready made. The comparisons of the processes between the cards is shocking I will check on that if I get another one! Cheers.

Sorry to bore people on another FPS related issue! I have just got this game the other day and so far have found it almost unplayable due to low FPS which needless to say is quite frustrating! I have tried a few things that have been posted on this forum such as putting the graphics settings to high and then back to low again and turning shadow and bloom completely off and I also put the tree details (and the one next to it can't remember what it was) down to zero and tried running in backwards compatibility. I have also tried changing a few settings on my graphics card and PC to favour performance and still no luck. At best my FPS goes to about 25 although this is very inconsistent and is mostly around 10-20. The specs of my PC are: OS - Windows 7 Processor - AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.60 GHz RAM - 8 GB Graphics Card - ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB Hard Drive - 1TB (with tonnes of space, this is the only game I have installed) I have this connected to a 32inch LCD monitor via HDMI cable if that matters... I have DirectX 11 and the latest version of Java installed. From researching on these forums and Google, I'm starting to think I might need to get a different graphics card? I thought the specs of this PC would be enough to at least play the game smoothly on low settings but I can't seem to work it! The PC is only a few weeks old as well so I'd like to avoid getting a new graphics card if possible BUT if it's the only way I will do it because I don't want to watch my subscription time run down! Can anyone recommend any settings to change? I have a programme called AMD Vision Engine Control Center which is for my graphics card settings if anyone has any knowledge on this? If not any recommendations for a new graphics card for this PC? The PSU is 500w. Any help greatly appreciated from this MMO noob!

Thanks for this info, makes things a lot clearer as I have only just got the game yesterday!
