Bad FPS with Good computer

**Jasheon** · March 15, 2011, 07:23 PM

I am running 2500k sandy bridge chip OC'ed to 3.8ghz, Super Clocked 560Ti (EVGA), 4 gigs of DDR3 Ram, windows 7.

I get horrible FPS when a large melee happens, when I zoom out before any fighting begins I get like 60 -70 FPS. Once a big fight happens, my FPS drops to the mid teens......

These are my settings, shouldn't I get better FPS then this?

I have pretty the same PC...i7-920 4ghz, GTX580 and 6gb of ram.

Same FPS like you, i can't zoom because FPS drops drammatically.

Yeah it still runs poorly just like the demo. They were so full of crap when they claimed the full version would be more optimized.

What resolution are you using and what minimum fps are you getting when zoomed in during a battle with several units onscreen? I just want to know I'm planning to upgrade my pc.

I have a core i7, 8 gigs RAM, GTX 580 and Windows 7 64 bit.

I get absolutely smooth fps (locked at 60) always in 1920x1080 resolution, even when zooming in on melee mobs, in night battles with weather, fire, the works.

I don't know why you all are having the issues you are having, being that your systems are similar to mine. Have you downloaded the latest nVIDIA beta drivers? They are not specifically for Shogun 2, but you never know. Those are the ones I am using.

Sucks though, sorry. It's an extremely good experience with smart AI, awesome naval battles, evil campaign AI and a very responsive and fun battle system. The RPG elements are just icing on the cake.

Hi Frei can you please say us what drivers are you using? I have the same pc but with the 266.58. Thanks

I think that the game have issues wit intel /nvidia combinations.

No you are not. Not with everything on Ultra and everything on.
