Any ETA on fixing these ridiculous AMD FPS drops? (e: Nvidia cards affected as well!)

Somebody, please explain in detail these AMD-specific FPS drops, and how I can reproduce them. In my time of playing, I haven't had any ridiculous FPS drops or anything that I can recall, nor have I died from such.

go to dock, party with couple of summoner witches, and LA rangers, see how you go, and come back to tell us.

I wasn't able to find a Docks party with summoner witches or LA rangers, but I was in a pretty common group, in A3 Barracks and A1. My FPS went from 120 to 60ish, and I only noticed this because I had a FPS counter up (in other words, I could play just fine).

In which difficulty? The problem doesn't really start until Merciless. This is when most builds start coming together and players can start spamming their skills with all the support gems they want. I just started a new play through and loved how smooth the game was... Then I hit Act 3 in Merciless and it was back to the slide show for me.

It seems to be client related, to the builds with masses of auras, and particle effects, my machines no slouch but if I see a aura heavy build on screen with a million npcs and summoned mobs, the game totally falls over itself, but runs at 90+ fps all the time otherwise and in normal groups

zzz

if you are using laptop with optimus tech.(nvidia)

Try this. its work for me.

Download Nvidia Inspector

open N.Inspector and click Settings Button as you see.


second step:



After that "Apply settings" finally manually select nvida card and play.


Sorry for bad english.

This problem is easy to reproduce even on nVidia cards.

I believe it is due to a memory leak.

Repro steps:
1. Start the game
2. Stand in town
3. Turn on the FPS display via F1
4. Leave the game running for a few hours. (I am trying to determine the minimum number of hours required.)

If I leave the game running over-night my framerate will drop from 100+ down to < 60 when I check back the next day.
Logging out, then relogging back in will have the framerate jump back up to 100+.

Edit: Added notes about restarting the game to restore the frame rate.

keep the thread Alive XD

Oh wow I didn't even see these threads. I thought it was just me but I guess everyone is having FPS drops.

I've never had them until recently. My game will run smooth at 70-100 FPS then get these FPS "slow downs" and drop to 20-25 for a few seconds than go back to normal. It even does this when standing around in town too. Doing absolutely nothing.

u are lucky m8 .... a drop to 20 would be a Godsend for me
i get a spike to 0 for 5 sec (a 5 sec freez) and then back to 60 ... than a 1sec freez .. then a 4 sec freez

and i dare u to survive a 5 sec freez in the middle of the pack on lvl 70+
