Just curious as to which options you selected and what your computer rig is.

For me I have an i7 950 @ 3.8ghz, 6gigs 1600mhz ram, and a GTX 460 1gb, on Windows 7 64-bit.   I have the beta nvidia driver installed, and I have the hi-res texture pack installed and checked on in the options.  I am using the DX11 rendered, which my card supports.

I am running at 1920x1080 (as that's the native res of my monitor).

So on medium detail, with full AA and ansiotropic, I get silky smooth 60fps.
On high detail, AA and ansio off completely, and none of the detail boxes checked, I get around 40fps.  (If I check any boxes or put any AA on, the FPS goes below 30...unplayable imo).
On very high detail, even with nothing else on I get around 15-20 fps.


Suffice it to say, I'm disappointed.  My rig can handle every other game in existence at the moment at 60 fps with the 1920x1080 resolution (except Metro 2033), and many games have far better graphics.  Anyone running it well?


If you are getting 50+ fps on high detail or very high detail, please post your

-processor
-ram
-vid card
-windows version
-newest/beta video driver installed?
-high res texture pack?
-resolution
-All the options you have checked

Ambient Occlusion will kill your frame-rate. It enables shadows on EVERYTHING. Turn it off and your performance will be fine on max.

Are you getting 50+ fps on high/very high?  If so what is your rig and what are your precise options that you selected?

If you read my post, I am not checking that option.

Oh man! This really makes my heart sink...
Bioware really posted their recommended system specs inaccurately according to this.
Seems like a lot of people with high end rigs can't take advantage of all the higher settings! What a bummer, I'll probably be playing on Medium then with my ATI HD5770, 4Gig RAM, Core 2 Quad Q6600 processor. :crying:

Indeed, with the newest drivers, I need to limit AA to 2x and none of the additional options in order to obtain stable FPS. That's on DX11 and Very High with the High rez texture pack.

I've got the game set to max w/ texture pack. I haven't felt the need to check the framerate but it's easily running 40+ fps at all times.

Core2 Quad 3ghz and a ATI 6970, latest drivers.

Running everything as high as you can go, high resolution textures, and 8x AA and never got anywhere close to below 60 FPS.

(I7-930@2.8GHz(Auto-OC)/evgaGTX480sc/12GB1600 3chan/Win7Pro x64 SP1)

53-61.1 FPS (w/ Vsync on) in heavily crowded area (tested with eVGA Precision Pro 2.02)

If you have a similar build, this may help you...
Until NVidia/Bioware release updates/fixes/new drivers, these are my primary settings:

NVidia Beta Drivers, DX11, High Settings, Hi-res textures, AA/AF @ Max, VSync, 1920x1200
(adjust AA/AF depending on your machine, and certain in-game environments[combat, etc])

Simply adjust your settings either from in-game, or the config utility until you find settings you are content with. Last resort, just play using DX9 settings if you have to.

Good luck, happy darkspawn hunting!

E8400 at 3.37ghz, GTX 580, 6GB of mem, tons of HD...

At medium, I'm always at 60+ no problems
At High, 2xAA, 16AA + all the bells and whistles, I get 40-50fps depending of where I am, 60 in cutscenes.
At very high, 2xAA, 16AA, I vary from 30fps to 60fps depending if it's a cutscene or not.. running in Kirkwall, I get between 30-40fps.

Removing SSAO (Ambient Occlusion) makes NO difference at all. Neither does the Anisotropic filtering (0 or 16x is the same fps).

I KNOW my cpu is a bottleneck, but still, I get **amazing scores in Heaven benchmark** so I'm not 100% convinced the low fps is due to the cpu alone. Specially since it's super smooth in dx9 and *almost* perfect in DX10.

I think I'll play DX10 or DX9 until nVidia and or Bioware optimize the DX11 renderer since it's looks great too (although no tessellation DOES makes a difference in the city)

I have a rig similar to Dutchrend with 480s in SLI and having everything maxed out, high res, nothing else checked and I can only manage 20 FPS. Going from 8x AA and 16x AF to 2 and 2 only adds 10 fps. I hope this is an optimization issue.

Bumping the graphics detail down to high got me up to 50 fps. Good enough for now I suppose.

I also did this, not sure if it helped or not:

- latest windows updates
- changed physX processor to CPU

im getting about 30-40 during battles, 40-50 around kirkwall and 60 during cutscenes and everywhere else. It runs pretty flawless and im pleased with the overall performance.

As of right now if you are using a Nvidia Video card the performance sucks. Not sure if its drivers or Bioware optimization. But as of right now your hosed until new drivers or something from Bioware.

1080p, very high, texture patch, nothing else checked in or AA/AF. 50-60 FPS. I am still unhappy because the game doesn't look THAT GOOD. I should be able to run this game completely maxed out.

I7 920 @ 4.1ghz
GTX 480 SLI

12 gigs of ram.

Running very high with Catalyst on very high settings, as well.  Very surprised that only one 5770 is running the game on dx11 very high with the textures on. The game is running smoothly with no stuttering or lags, it looks great.  Screen resolution is a native 1600x1200.  Pasting specs:

    i7 Extreme 980X @ 3.33 GHz

    24 GB Corsair Dominator

    Temporary: Radeon 5770
    (waiting to get my hands on the 6990, which was announced today....finally!)

     Win 7 x64 Professional

Your joking right...

I can't seem to get very good frame rate with High either. Using a Radeon 4770. (Edit: And Catalyst 11.2.) I do get 50 FPS or so at the best times, but it falls easily. And during a few effects-heavy scenes - ripping the Ogre apart as a Mage in the legendary scene, or Flemeth turning into a humanoid and walking through the flames - the frame rate is horrible, single digits. I can only conclude my card is just not up to the task. Or maybe ATI needs to put out new drivers, but I'm not going to hope too much.

Thing is, once I finally admitted defeat with the DX10 effects and turned detail down to Medium, I found I was able to turn most other things up. Didn't even try SSAO, I know that's not going to be a good idea with this card. But I did turn on 16x AF, 4x AA and the High-Res textures without too much of a hit, at least not in those initial areas; FPS tends to stay above 40, and when I tried the Flemeth scene again it didn't drop below 30.
So, it looks like I will basically be running the game with origins-style settings, except with a DX11 renderer and with some high-res textures and AF thrown in.

  Somethin is wrong then, a single 6970 runs the game flat out maxed.  Try disabling crossfire, I hear it's not working correctly.

i7 920 (@ 4ghz), ati 5870 x2, 6048x1080 (Eyefinity), 16af, 4AA, VSync off - getting 70FPS average. Turning off AA give me another 4-5 FPS average.

There is deffinitely something wrong with your configuration.

I am running a single 6970 on a lowly AMD 965 CPU and with all settings maxed (except AA, which is only at 4x) I am at a pretty solid 60FPS w/ VSYNC on. Oh... I also turn off that distance blur crap... bleh

If you are getting low FPS in crossfire try disabling it (disabling Catalyst AI is a quick way to do this).

Yep. It is an Nvidia problem. I have the same framerate estimates as the the topic poster, and yet I have a older CPU (E8400). Something is wrong with that.

GTX 580 OC, 1.5gig
i7-980
12 gig 2100 ram

The game runs with all options checked and maxed at High (1920x1080) at about 70 fps

The moment I switch to Very High: 8 Fps.

With the beta driver it turns into 21 fps.

I use the MSI Afterburner utility to check FPS. Fraps should work just as well.
