Technical Support (Path of Exile 1) - No bottleneck still below 60 FPS most f the time - Forum

Junked ggpk file might only increase map laod times, but not FPS drops caused by mobs/on screen skill effects.	Posted by Dakado#4348 on Oct 3, 2019, 7:00:05 PM Quote this Post

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L44aqkOvaNA i7-2600 16gb ram gtx1060 3gb @ 1680x1050 ssd windows 10 no huge problems with fps (sometimes it drops to 40, but not often) vsync on other game settings PS. i had fps problems using Windows 7, it was twice less everywhere upgrading to Windows 10 fixed it in finished blighted map under win 7 i had ~20fps same place in win 10 fps just doubled ~40 fps my DXdiag, so you can compare driver versions https://pastebin.com/0NpbXdnc Last edited by Sonidox#3895 on Oct 4, 2019, 4:30:20 AM	Posted by Sonidox#3895 on Oct 4, 2019, 4:20:18 AM Quote this Post

Spoiler Back in late 90s one of the CPU OC world records belonged to a single core single thread intel celeron - over 4 ghz in raw numbers, it was still performing worse than stock speed 3.0 ghz regular off the shelf pentium. Resource utilization doesn't matter neither, especially for GPU, CPUs are the ones who usually draw 100% if they don't have enough to give. GPUs can sit at 1/2 of what they got and still crap out, you basically have an equivalent to gforce 1060, and while high end 1060 TIs aren't that bad, due to aging architecture, they won't perform nearly as good as newer generations. P.S. read up on ddr3 vs ddr4. Idgaf if you have 8 gigs, 16 or 32, it's slow in comparison. Spoiler WTF!!! LMAO!!! DDR3 still ROCKING! difference max 5 fps when do DDR3 vs DDR4 " Please, if you have no experience do not answer. Spoiler Gpu cannot be bottleneck when the gpu usage is not 99%, DDR3 bottleneck is also nonsense since only 2.8 GB of VRAM is used so DDR3 is not even used to swap out VRAM. Spoiler I agree! sometimes I have difficulties to read some people trying to explaing things like this.. I really don't get it. Sometimes people posting " I have i7 9900K, DDR4 32Gb 3200Mhz, GTX 2080ti and Nvme SSD 1TB but POE doing 2 fps" WTF? or you "install" intel on AMD mtb or you' re not updating drivers or you lying about the hardware.... Anyway, beside this, have you activated: Lighting>Shadow+Global illumination? try to remove it or lower it, seems to be bad optimization in this setting Last edited by Staraway#4147 on Oct 4, 2019, 8:18:58 AM	Posted by Staraway#4147 on Oct 4, 2019, 6:06:48 AM Quote this Post

GGG should just be posting what machine specs do they use to test on so people wouldn't be baffled how some people with lesser setup than them could run PoE much smoother. with their setups, they should be able to run PoE on high but everybody seems to set it on lowest just to have the best fps when their rigs could handle recent games on ultra Last edited by EraHovencult#6509 on Oct 4, 2019, 6:20:21 AM	Posted by EraHovencult#6509 on Oct 4, 2019, 6:17:39 AM Quote this Post
Try Dynamic Resolution OFF and water low see if that helps. POE has not fix both of them. Should help.	Posted by Koller1#6996 on Oct 4, 2019, 8:10:38 AM Quote this Post
I had 1 FPS in Blighted Maps on a new RX570 before I ran the GGPK Defrag Tool, so stating that defrag doesn't affect performance other than load-times is wrong. Both FrameTime, FPS and stability was increased for me and that was not because of a patch, it was because of a 7.5GB cleanup in the GGPK file, - there were no patches during that time it took for me to run the defrag.
