Hey guys, I have a 3.3GHz Six-core CPU (Phenom X6 1045T), 8GB of RAM, Radeon 7870, and am running Skyrim at 63FPS on Ultra settings. When I go inside buildings, caves, etc. my FPS does not drop, but the graphics lag pretty hard. Sometimes, I kind of feel this in other games also, what could it be, and how do I fix this?
Is the 7870 overclocked, at all? The OC may not be stable, causing throttling. What temps are you getting?
Good suggestion, but no, no overclock. I'm getting around 53C while playing.
Hi, I'm assuming your graphics drivers are fully up to date so I have no idea why you would be getting this lag in other games. What do you mean by lag exactly?
I was having problems with skyrim stuttering and found that running it in a window (there is a check box in the graphics settings) with this borderless window mod made it much smoother:
It just seems the frames would stutter, graphics always look good, but every once in a while when I turn around or something, I get frame lag, but no drop in FPS at all. I tried the borderless window mod and it did not help. Thanks for trying btw!
You could try reinstalling the graphics drivers :/
I would try using MSI Afterburner and on the OSD (on screen display) part you can choose to limit the frames. It worked for me on my 7950.
