Hey guys, I am having a low FPS issue with a certain Beta game, I am not sure why as I should be getting very high (50-60fps), but I stand still for 30fps, and if I turn or move I drop to 10-15...it is very odd, and I am wondering if it has to do with the game, or my rig. I run Farcry 3 no problem on high, bioshock, etc etc.
My specs are below, but according to my PC Meter, my GPU Clock is at 900-1000mhz, and the Memory clock is at 1250MHz, I think the memory clock might be the issue? I don't know if it is a matter of the game not acting right with ATI /AMD chip/Graphics card. I have asked around and I can't seem to get any real answers. What do you all think the problem could be? I updated drivers, I tried OCing but I am not really great at it so I didn't want to push it as I feel like my rig should be able to wreck a game like this. I think the other issue might be that the AMD Vision Engine Control Center might be overriding, or not overriding the settings in game? Please, I am at my wits end. Thank you guys.

I'd say that the reason you get such low FPS, is because the game, whatever it is, is still in its Beta stage. Beta means that the game is working and playable, but not fully out of development. It's probably something to do with poor driver support and inefficiency, but I'm sure it will be fixed once the full game is released.
It takes a long time for devs to optimize and fine tune these things :)
For now, sit tight and wait.

I considered that, but it seems that none of the other people I am playing with are having that issue. I tested Farcry 3 last night on Ultra, and I was getting 35-46fps while setting things on fire...I dont get it...I sure hope you are right Risa, thanks
