Sorry… FX-4170 is hardly upgrade over the old Phenom II series CPU. FX-4170 is 2 cores total 4 modules, IPC is terrible. Your CPU is easily beat by Core i3 CPU from Intel.
Hence which is why you don’t see performance improvement.
2 module/4 core.
@MinkyMike – It’s all about adjusting your expectations with this game.
Current talk being tossed about is disabling core parking to help performance. After than it’s adjusting down the graphic settings that are very CPU dependent which is reflections, shadows and player culling.
By latest drivers do you mean latest beta 13.8 or latest WHQL 13.4? There were some reports of problems with 13.8 on some cards.
The FX-4170 should perform better than the Athlon II 255 simply because it is a quad core.
I’m using the 13.4 drivers. I dont do beta drivers have had to many issues with them in the past. I also tried what people suggested and disabled cpu parking. Even on the lowest settings I still get 10-15 FPS. Meh guess I will try playing the game again in another year and see if anythings changed.

Regardless of whatever you say. The CPU I have now was a major upgrade compared to my old CPU. And this is the only game that seems to fail in the FPS department with a computer that has more than enough power to play it and plays many other games completely fine so my CPU is not the issue.

I’ve only recently tried playing this game again after the first couple months of release I have never gotten a character past level 5 mostly just for one reason. The game will not EVER play past 10-15 FPS for me regardless of settings. You may think my computer specs are bad well they arnt.
OS : Window’s 8 Pro 64 Bit
CPU : AMD FX-4170 4.20GHz
Ram : 16 Gig’s DDR3 1333Mhz
Video Card : XFX Radeon HD 7870 Black Edition 2GB DDR5 / Latest Drivers
I clearly should be getting way more than 10-15 FPS in this game.
The weird thing is back when the game first came out from what I remember I was on…
OS : Windows 7 64bit
Video Card: XFX 6870 Black Edition 1GB
Ram : 8 Gigs ddr3
CPU: AMD Athlon™ II X2 255 Processor (2 CPUs), ~3.1GHz
And I was still getting the exact same 10-15 FPS.
Should I just give up on ever really playing this game? Cause clearly even after a year and with massive change in hardware since than and no change the heck am I supposed to do? Just sit and watch a slideshow happen just by moving the mouse?
Any suggestions would be nice at this point on how to get more stable FPS out of this game.
