[Troubleshooting] - Annoying FPS drop

[CCBlackmilk]

Hey, I just recently formatted my computer, installed spring, and, now, all in a sudden, Spring runs with a very low FPS rate (15 fps).

Now as far as I know, I have no idea why, I have a dual core pc (5GHZ) and a crappy Nvidia 6 Series Graphics card.

What would make it run from 40-50fps to 15fps all in a sudden, I find gameplay terrible now.

Thanks, Black Milk

6800? I have the same problem, 50-60 max and mid game it drops to15
Could be over heating or somthing
I think the GPU has problems with rendering or loading textures, lower your particles or unit detail.

Disable optimized threading in the NV control panel.

I obviously have that on regardless to say, it just feels relatively laggy.

May I mention I have a 6150 nvidia graphics card (yes, wow, ghetto shit indeed).

Imo the cause of this could be different gfx driver versions. Try installing the gfx driver you used to use in old setup.

I don't quite remember updating my graphics card ever, but, I'll give it a shot :)
