Howdy!

Being stuck on a number like 60hz would be a different issue than before. This would be a sign the game is seeing a cap such as Vsync is enabled somewhere or the client’s FPS is capped.

I recommend the following steps:

  1. Check the monitor itself to ensure your FPS is set higher than 60hz such as 144, 165 or 240 depending on your monitor settings.

  2. Right click on the desktop - Display Settings → Advanced Display Settings → Display Adapter Properties for Display 1 → Click the monitor tab → Ensure Screen Refresh rate is set to the highest option.

  3. Start up Warcraft III → Menu → Options → Video → Uncheck: Vsync → Set Maximum FPS to something beyond 60hz. Check your resolution for example 5120x144@165 (The @165 is your refresh rate you want to select the higher refresh rate for your resolution in fullscreen mode. )

Other areas to check:

  • Geforce Experience or AMD Radeon software both have the option within their control panels to change the games settings.

Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.

  • I tried to play more wc3 games and got 110 -120 fps and before i got 80 fps, so it’s random.
  • Right after the hotfix, I had my 200 fps back, I always got 200 fps anyway.
  • My specs are : AMD Ryzen 7 1700/ Nvidia gefore 1070 GTX 8GB
  • I did check the monitor and 60 Hz is the maximum I can select, I can’t go higher so you are right about this point, but anyway, may my screen is a bit “old” but I play many recent games with 200 + FPS. and again, Im not stuck at 60 fps, its random.
  • I never did check Vsync, for your infos, I capped my fps to 200 only because it is enough for me to play, but I already tried to cap fps to 300 fps and its the same I can play with 300 fps without any problem because my computer is strong enough( I mean at 1.35 patch and before)
    -My resolution is 1600x900x60 cant got higher for the “900” or it say " OUT of range"', my screen size is too little its a 20 inches I think.
  • I did went to geforce experience already and its the same, im playing in 1600x900 but the tool geforce experience suggest me to play in 1920x1080, tried it but same result, I got a " out of range" in the middle of the screen and still it doesnt improve my FPS.

So so so, to resume I guess the patch 1.36 broke something that I’m forced to buy a new monitor right ? My monitor is the model : BenQ G2020 HDA 20 inches

As I said, I always got 200 fps or even 300 fps if I want in patch 1.35 and before, also right after the hotfix in 1.36 , I got my 200 fps back but not anymore since some days…

If I buy a new monitor 22-24 inches, will it fixe the issue ? I don’t want to spend my money for nothing especially because I’m fine with my monitor, and always been.

Thank you in advance

The same problem plagues my setup after the last 2 patches. From what I could verify with Afterburner active is that the problem affects both graphics: in classic mode graphics the video card remains practically unused causing a strong instability on the fps and making the game jerky and unplayable in most cases. part of the cases, not to mention the feeling of “heaviness” when using the mouse during the game. In Reforged mode where the video card seems to be used by the game but he fps drop from 200 to 50 or 60 or 70, depend: the game is playble but not everytime.

Nvidia driver settings are set to best. I had the opportunity to verify this problem also in two mine computers:

CPU: 5800x3D
GPU: RTX 4090 with last drives version
RAM: 64 GB
Storage: M.2 Samsung 990 PRO
Monitor: Asus 27’ QHD 240hz
Internet connection: Fiber 2.5Gb
Windows 11 PRO
Gaming Mode: Warcraft 3 Reforged classic grafics mode

CPU: 3950x
GPU: RTX 3090 with last drives version
RAM: 32 GB
Storage: M.2 WD Black 7000mb/s
Monitor: DELL 34’ QHD 144hz
Internet connection: Fiber 2.5Gb
Windows 11 PRO
Gaming Mode: Warcraft 3 Reforged classic grafics mode

I forgot: don’t tell me to check the configuration of the monitor or the game, because obviously I wrote after having performed numerous tests and I’m not a novice. The last few patches have inexorably ruined the playability.

Is a patch problem! They must to fix it please! I am available for any test and to send any file requested to help you solve this crap!

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.
The problem now is that the technology believes that he fixed 74% of the fps and sold graphics cards to Huang Shixun, driving negative optimization is the same principle.
’Test Map

Lordaeron: The Foremath Current Version: 0.71b

version 1.36 in game max=150 average fps=140

version 1.35 in game max=210 average fps=190

Difference of 50 fps , based on 140/190 * 100%=74%
Repair 74% only

现在的问题是,技术认为他修理了74%的fps,跟老黄卖显卡,驱动负优化是一个道理。

if your monitor is running at 60hz, there is no benefit to having 200 FPS. You need a monitor that is capable of higher refresh rates.

I have the same problem, Dell E2314H 23" 60hz
Patch ago everything was fine. If the developers have crooked hands, let them backup.
AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Eight-Core Processor (16 CPUs), ~3.0GHz
16384MB RAM

your pc
1.35 1.36
60hz 60hz

Perhaps you didn’t know that you locked your own fps and ran it with a fixed fps

And I ran the same map with versions 1.35 and 1.36.

The difference between the two versions is 50fps

my pc
1.36 1.35
140hz 190hz

Please watch the real-time video of May 29, 2023. The difference between the 2 version is 50fps, and the fps has not been completely fixed

I did not understand anything from this video, what should I unlock? If you mean the game settings, I put a maximum of 300 fps
ver. 1.36.0

hi
Some people say that Blizzard technicians have completely fixed the issue with fps, but I opened the same map with versions 1.35 and 1.36, and the fps performance was completely inconsistent, with a significant difference

I have the same problem as you, with similar configurations

Watching the video, do you have the same question as me

developers return everything as it was! why release a crooked patch?! if you can’t do it normally, it’s better not to touch anything at all

I have 300 fps on PRT and 50 fps with micro spikes on live service i dont think its monitor issue

The developer said they have fixed the fps issue, but my video shows a 50fps gap. The developer should fix the remaining fps and the fps should return to the 1.35 fps level

FPS problem is not fixed! You can read my post and take the conclusion!

I have this problem on battle.net 4vs4 RT

Please fix it! And the problem is rilevant

Developers need to fix, users using AMD CPUs still have fps issues

Warcraft 3 Performance is spiking with low framerate in Singleplayer + Multiplayer.

Even capping the Framerate to 60 results in it dipping every 3 seconds caused by frequent spikes. See below for examples.
