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

Using an HD 6670 with 2 gig of ddr3...not even what you would call a gaming card but the only significant slow down i've had is in party and using GMP/LA/Chain and that is understandable...even with a better card.
Now i've played WoW on max settings, swtor on max settings and tera on max settings.
All of which get piss poor performance when in a group.
WoW 10 fps lowest in 25 mans, at max
Swtor ilium...0.5 fps or less, at medium or lower
Tera, nexuses 0.5 fps or less, at the lowest setting possible changing the ini file as well

And all of this is down to spell effects

Yo guys, i've made a list of the effects that slow down the game for me over here http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3235/page/27 - you might wanna check out if it's the same for you and might leave a confirming comment there.
thx

I start to suspect that AMD is dominating the market nowadays and that's why it looks like it's a Radeon problem - some Nvidia users have the exact same fps spikes as we do.
I think the engine just has a serious problem with a majority of PC configurations - Most likely it was optimzied for Krips PC^^

This!

ive given up on PoE now. a great game that i will check up on from time to time. as for now, im done. cannot play the game with the fps drops

please fix before you lose players!

Currently installing an upgrade to Windows 8. If there are still problems I'll e-mail Chris to investigate this fresh install.

Windows 8 will run EVEN slower then the 7 ! (in fps)
a fact

I'm upgrading from XP though.

Fresh install does exactly nothing, tried it way to many times.
Win XP, Win Vista, Win7, Win 8 32 and 64 bit versions, tried everything.
It has nothing to do with hardware and or operating systems.
