Game performance is ABYSMAL.
" What is your CPU make and model? " I completely agree. You can kill at least half your FPS if you open all of these things while in a graphically intensive area such as the Ship Graveyard. And it absolutely shouldn't do it. " That's a nice stock clock for an AMD CPU, which helps a lot to remedy the issue. It seems most of the X4 Phenoms have enough power per core to run Path of Exile without any issues. " Ah, one of the Pentium era Dual Cores. If you return the CPU to stock clocks, Path of Exile would likely become near unplayable if you're having problems at 3.2GHz. |

One of the definitions found on the interweb for "ABYSMAL" is "extremely or hopelessly bad or severe". Well, that's your opinion.
The only time I had some problems is the only time I played in a party with somebody. Specs: Intel Q8200@2.33GHz, 4GB DDR3@1333, Saphire Radeon HD 6850 |

Funny enough, my notebook is anything but a gaming machine (I use it for video editing), but it plays this game almost flawlessly, apart from a few areas where the framerate goes down (most notably the dark forest with all its lighting and shadow effects). I have far more problems with hit lag and the like.

" 25 FPS out of a possible 120. I would say that the word i used is very accurate. |

I've played this on an AMD64 3400+ with a GeForce 8600GT. I had to turn the settings down, but it played. Color me skeptical of your "abysmal" claim.
PoE is Diablo 3
Diablo 3 is Torchlight 2 Torchlight 2 is Fate 5 |

" What is there to be skeptical about? You have an old singlecore AMD and you had to reduce settings for the game to be playable. That just goes to prove my point that the game is too CPU reliant. It is likely that your 8600GT isn't even fully utilized while playing. |

I have
AMD 5000+ BE 3.2GHz ATI 3870HD 4GB RAM Win 7 U x64 I have everything at max and the shadows off and managing a solid 70+ FPS. Looks really nice. First level on shadows drops it to 45 if I am lucky and the second level drops me down to 20. But I don't think my card handles shadows well, since its like that in most games I play. Insanity is overrated unless you join me in mine.
