Livkinson 0 Posted September 15, 2018 Hello everyone. On the 14th I decided to update the drivers of my AMD video card to version 18.9.1. By evening, I found a drawdown in the frame rate. The next day (today) I started to understand what the problem is. Rearranged RAM modules, reinstalled drivers for the video card (tried versions 18.9.1 and 18.5.1). Nothing helped. But then I began to measure the FPS with the help of Steam and saw with FPS all right. I tried to run /fps. And I had a frame rate drop to 50% of all FPS. Previously, this problem did not arise. My potato PC: CPU: Intel Q6600; RAM: 6 GB GPU: Sapphire HD7770 GHz Edition. OS: Windows 10 Pro. I understand perfectly that the computer is old, but as I described above, in past were no problems with the drawdown. In the screenshots in the upper left corner you can see the Steam frame counter. Also recorded a small video comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeedman 133 Posted September 15, 2018 could it be because afaik that uses different ui rendering method compared to everything else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelinux 51 Posted September 16, 2018 Interesting. It's normal that it eats a couple of frames but I've never had this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhosT 1301 Posted September 16, 2018 You also gain a massive FPS boost if you turn off your hud. It's hard to play that way though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a huge difference in events and fightclub. I barely get 80fps in a full fightclub, but with the HUD off it's 140+. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Livkinson 0 Posted September 22, 2018 Hey guys, I finally reinstalled Windows and I understood what the problem is. The problem is on my motherboard or processor. I'm preparing to upgrade the PC. Sorry for the misinformation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eixo 33 Posted September 23, 2018 Apb's UI at all eats fos a lot, just try to disable whole UI including radar, names,crosshair and your FPS will be high and stable, best place to try it is asylum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
