Thread: GTX 1070 + I7 6700 and only ~45 fps?

  1. #1

    Default GTX 1070 + I7 6700 and only ~45 fps?

    Here are the settings I play on:

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    During battles I'll be around 45 fps usually, although sometimes it dips really low to around 10-15 in very large battles. Is this just because my hardware isn't powerful enough, Warhammer is poorly optimized, or am I missing something? I've also already checked to see if my GPU/CPU are overheating, but they are not.

    Here are the rest of my PC specs too:

    Looks like it's your OS

    Get Windows 10 which has directx 12. You can't get it from other versions including win7

    I think I'll try that as a last resort to fix my problems, surely people with Windows 7 and DX11 are able to play this game smoothly?

    dude... AA set to 8x???? xD
    switch it to FXAA or Off or 2x at best. Crank all other setting to MAX and enjoy the game with steady 60 fps
    and I would reccomend to switch to Windows 10 64 bit

    +1 on Freud's answer.

    I also have a i7 6700 and GTX 1070, and I only play with 2xAA, DX11, everything else maxed, at 1920x1080. I avoid FXAA because it appears to apply AA to everything, even textures, which makes things look a little soupy. Prefer to only have my AA on edges.

    How many frames to you average usually?

    I have i7 4790K and GTX970 G1 Gaming 4Gb, and I have everything maxed out, 1920x1080 res and just AA set to x2, win 7. Game never slowed down, while looking great. With your PC it should run even better then on my set.

    Somewhere around 70-90 on the campaign map, and battlemap 60-80s with dips into the 50s in siege battles.

    Man, I just don't get it then. Even after reducing my AA to 2x I go down to 30-40 fps in battles. What about the anisotropic filtering? Should I reduce that?

    Does it really bother you that much to play on 40 FPS? To be honest, I would always pick maxed out graphics as long as the game does not go below 30 FPS. You won't really notice it until it goes below 25 FPS.

    AF isn't a taxing setting; usually free image quality. I'd recommend running the userbenchmark here to see if there are parts in your system that are performing below expectations.

    Honestly 40 fps is fine, but I just hate having it go down from 110+ to 40,30, even 20ish during the main action.

    I ran the test and got these results:

    UserBenchmarks: Game 105%, Desk 81%, Work 62%
    CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 - 87.4%
    GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070 - 131.3%
    SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 500GB - 101.9%
    RAM: HyperX Fury DDR4 2133 C14 2x8GB - 37.6%
    MBD: MSI Z170-A PRO (MS-7971)

    edit: so I found out that the guy who put my pc together put the ram in slots 1 and 2 instead of 1 and 3, so now that i've corrected that I get on average 20 more frames which is GREAT. Another guy on another forum suggested that I also try running the game on cores 1 3 5 and 7 because "the game can't use HT cores efficiently". Once I figure out how to do that I'll give it a shot.
