Very low FPS and very high CPU usage
Good afternoon.
I just purchased and downloaded this game. I created a new char and put all graphics in lowest (my machine is not the best but still can run many things in medium or low, including diablo 3 in medium-high) but with this game I get very very low FPS. I dropped all to the lowest I could make (even to 800x480) and hardly getting 26 FPS. As I said, I know my machine is not great but it can run quite fine other similar games,
Is this just a known issue that needs to be improoved or is more or less the highest I would be able to accomplish?
Another interesting issue is that this game is one of the very few that fries my machine if I let it run in full energy/cpu. Also is interesting that if I drop the maximum clock allowed, the game does not drop its FPS, it just cnsumes more from the CPU. If I allow more clock speed, I don't get a better gameplay or FPS, I just get lower CPU usage.
Finally I had to exit the game because even just allowing 20% of the full clock CPU speed, the game was increasing the CPU usage to critical levels and raising my machine's heat (I even have an special notebook cooler to reduce heat)
My specs
2GHz Intel Core i7-2630QM Quad-Core
8GB (2x4GB) RAM
SSD samsung EVO
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6570 with 1 GB GDDR5 VRAM
Windows 7 Ultimate
