Better hire people for game optimization than making this awesome stuff. We still have terrible FPS spikes even with settings that make PoE look like Heroes 3. Why GGG? I'm begging

Agreed. Either fix DX11 or optimize DX9, but either way, fix the rendering engine that sucks.

What type of graphic card are you using? I've found the optimization/rendering to be extremely smooth since 3.0, and I'm using a 1070 (w/ Max-Q) on a laptop

GTX 1080, Core i7 6700K, 32GB RAM, ASUS ROG Maximum VIII Formula, 3x Samsung 850 EVO SSDs

Ever since 3.0, the client has rendering issues in DX9 modes. Just fine in DX11, but then multiple-monitor issues and crashes sometimes (never crashes in DX9 Ex for me). Clean install, latest drivers, latest BIOS, Adaptive VSync, no vsync, built-in client vsync, low and max settings, NVIDIA 3D settings for PoE client changed/forced, everything troubleshot, etc.

In DX9 performance is fine most of the time, but some jitter (frame rendering bounces) when areas first loading. Happens even with /noasync options. Happens even if I make a 12GB RAM drive and copy the PoE install (and edit registry keys) to run purely in RAM. Happens when killing tons of mobs at once at end-game. Happens with a ton of ground effects at end-game, 8-mod maps, etc.

I'm normally one of people helping out in the Troubleshooting section for client issues on systems, so I've tried everything out there on the forums, documented, and even beyond that from my own IT experience. Problem is, DX9 now sucks in PoE post 3.0, and I would guess that GGG doesn't bother with it anymore since they support DX11. I'd be happy with DX11 if it wasn't unstable and compatible with multiple monitors while in full screen mode.

I might eventually bite the bullet and play in windowed mode DX11 to overcome this. Getting worse and worse performance with each update GGG releases.
