I’m about to lose my mind here - I have been having FPS issues with WoW since DF. I assumed it was just because my computer was a couple of years older now and that I was gonna need to purchase an upgrade in the near future. It has increasingly been getting worse and worse over the last few months, so I finally broke down and purchased $1300 worth of new parts for my computer on Thursday. I went through and got everything installed and ready to go, jumped on WoW expecting 130-150FPS. Nope, my FPS hasn’t changed at all, it’s at 25 FPS, at best, and single digits at worst, which is right where it was before. I have very few addons, aren’t using Elvui, are using stock UI things, and I’m absolutely clueless on what I’m doing wrong. Someone, please god, help me.
I have 32 GB 6000, 4800MT/S ram, an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-core processor, WoW is on a 2TB SSD HD, my MB is a ROG Strix X870E-E gaming mother board. I have 3 32” curved monitors that are all brand new and my power supply is 850W. I’m running Windows 11.
With my rig’s specs, I should be able to run WoW at a level 10 at 150FPS, but I’m at a level 7 with 25 max FPS. What the actual hell is going on??
Are you running a dedicated gpu, and not through the on-board graphics? From your parts list you seem to have built a new pc? Maybe a dxdiag might be needed.
Maybe until you diagnose this, try cutting back to a single monitor.
That would be a negative Ghost Rider. If you were running a single 1080p or a 1440p monitor then yeah you can maybe maintain a hundred and fifty FPS set to 10 anything else it’s not even remotely possible the game is CPU bound it’s going to run on a single core of your CPU. I have a similar rig with two 4090’s. I play on 3 1440p displays and if I run it up to 10 I am not happy with the FPS I get.
25 FPS does is low. what are the resolution of those three monitors that you’re playing on. If they’re 4K then 25 FPS maybe very close to correct.
