What's Your FPS?

[Noctigma]

That's Frames Per Second, not First-Person Shooter, obviously...

Just wondering what maximum FPS people are getting, and what hardware they're using to get it? You see plenty of benchmarks with popular shooters, but I don't often see comparisons in WoW.

With all video options on their lowest level, at 1680x1050 resolution, with the interface hidden and facing a wall I get the maximum 1000fps.

In play with all settings at max and well over 100 addons (excluding libraries, mostly ACE2) I get around 92fps.

System specs:
Intel E8400 @ 4.05GHz
4GB RAM @ 1066MHz (5-5-5-15-2T)
8800GT 1GB @ stock
Vista x64

is this for a specific game or any?

cod4 maxed at 1024x1028 af maxed aa off i get around 30-40 fps
css maxed same res aax16 and aax4 i get average of 150, but i have vsync on so its caped at 75

What sort of hack are you running to allow you to go above their cap of 75fps? When I ran that game a couple months ago (on my rig in sig), I had everything maxed @1175res (higher res sucks in that game because the interface shrinks to impossible to see lol) and would be stuck on 75fps at all times (saw a couple 74s during messy battles though). Reducing to lowest settings would still be stuck at 75fps.

there is no 75fps cap in WoW, try turning off vsync

Sure thing mr fancy pants

Anyhow, blunder overlooked... I would rather have the clean solid look at 75fps, than rips and tears at any fps. I dont pay for that game anymore, so I cant go try it out for the OP.
