Game unplayable since patch 3.9.0e? for Win7 users (FPS issue) STILL A PROBLEM AFTER 3.9.1b :(

I am still getting this slide-show level of lag on Windows 7 even after whatever "fix" (quote-unquote) was put in.

What usually triggers it still are either Legions, or Abysses. I've noticed that with all the ground textures going on during an abyss it can trigger the slideshow to start and then I have to immediately restart my game since its basically on like 3 FPS.

I don't even do abysses anymore if they appear in my maps; I skip them completely as it is no longer worth the risk of xp loss from dying to 2 FPS and then inevitably having to restart my game. Probably going to start skipping legions now too.

Again I just want to clarify that I never used to have this issue at all before a few patches ago.

Before talking again about upgrading to Win 10 it is also issue affecting players with Win 10. I have a live example playing with me, dropping in abyss fights from 120 fps to 40-50 fps in matter of seconds while having Win 10, 16GB of RAM and RTX 2060. .

Be patient before upgrading because the issue is listed in incoming fixes for Win 7 as a priority, and i'm sure that their code right now is a god damn spaghetti noddles. I am able to play for now after switching to one core with 40 frames constant but without that huge drop of frames and even if they drop, they do recover back so in a whole day of playing i need maybe 2-3 relogs. Using all my cores works worse right now.
I am having issues to even know I have windows 10, 16gb of ram, with a RTX 2060.

As others have said, since the last few patches their are issues effecting everyone. Im getting audio stutter and/or lag in game, and on occasion freezing forcing me to force close the game. The issues seem to be way more noticeable in multi-player more then when im solo. And its especially prominent in delve.
GGG, I just have to say that this problem is so bad that I've had to remove all cosmetics to lessen the occurrence of this issue, but that's not enough. Playing with a summoner that puts so much stuff on my screen just tanks my game every couple of maps. Blighted maps, even metamorphs that drop so much stuff on my screen also cause the issue. I bought a new skill effect and a pet prior to realizing they're contributing to the problem. I've been wanting to purchase a supporter pack, but because of this issue, there's really no point in doing so. I hope this gets fixed soon, or at least won't be forgotten.

Thank you for your hard work even during the holidays! I know you can do it.

Two weeks ago I was so hyped for the new league.


Too bad I now have to play at 5fps.

Best league ever.

Ty

windows 7 and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080

I'm tired of having restart over and over again....

Game starts to eat all ram, ping goes up fps goes down and all system start to get video lag.

Bug report number 3.736.936.415



Same problems here:

Win 7 Ultimate
16 GB RAM
i7-4770K
GTX 770

Normally no real issues and at start of the league I thought it's server side cause all my friends got the same problem, but when I read this forum and checked my RAM, I got like 16GB RAM usage. If I don't have at least 10 GB of RAM free, my computer doesn't even start PoE :,D


Ye game is unplayable

Windows 7 x64

Anyway now upgrading to Windows 10 since Windows 7 support from Microsoft ends in 2020.
