  1. Did some warzones today and fps seems okay: some drops to 40, but remains around 60. The issue seems to be the mouse/slight input delay at times: for instance, mouse movement can get a bit slow when lots of people are fighting, and despite the frames being okay, it can just 'feel' a bit clunky when hitting abilities. Not sure how to explain it haha!
  2. Is Red on the FPS Meter a signal of CPU or GPU bottleneck?
  3. Yeah man I don't mind the 30-40fps so much; it's the microstutters that are killing the experience. They occur when clicking through group members' frames quickly, tab targetting quickly, or opening UI elements quickly while running [guild window, inventory, etc]. I'm thinking of getting an i9-9900k - do you think this would help?
  4. Cheers, man! Might be a silly question, but based on what you've said, would it be worth trying to limit both tor.exes to only 2/3 cores?
  5. Thanks man. I've checked my CPU speed and when turbo boosted, it's at 3.9GHz. is this not enough?
  6. Hi there, I recently downloaded SWTOR eager to try it out (in particular, the PvP warzones). I come from a PvP background, having spent last few years pushing high ratings in WoW 3s and, before that, doing lots of open PvP in Warhammer Online. I installed SWTOR and have been doing the first few quests without issue. Graphics on high, 144hz, 200 max fps [though I use NVIDIA frame limiter to make it 140 fps], and no AA stuff. Despite relative smooth running, I did however notice some microfreezes: whenever I go through party frames quickly, my FPS drops, and if I open certain UI elements while moving (like the Guild tab), I'll have freezes, too. None of this prepared me for my shock in Warzones: the microstutters and fps drops were quite bad. FPS dropping to around 30/40 wasn't as bad as the microstutters, which just made the game unplayable. I have spent the better part of 2 days going through topics pertaining to this: I've toyed around with my process affinities, ensured 'high performance' for power mode is enabled, have ensured 'High' is set to the processes on task manager - but the microstutters persist. I have 21gb free on my SSD, so it should be enough, surely! I am DESPERATE to sort this out as PvP is my main reason for coming here (need a change of scene from WoW, and I love Star Wars). Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am on the verge of just giving up. Is it my settings? Is it my CPU? Should I upgrade/change anything? My pc rig is as follows: * Intel® Core i5-9400F CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz. 6 cores. * 16.0 GB RAM (15.9 GB usable) Ingame settings: * VSYNC off [i use NVIDIA gsync] * FPS Max 200 * Graphics are all high * Shadows off completely * Have tried with nameplate scaling both off and on - same results * 1920x1080 resolution * Fullscreen Thank you!
