Scourge of War Boards

Hey,

Just as the topic says. looking at farm land instantly tanks my game to absurd FPS levels of 3 to 7. Towns as well. pressing T until everything is off instantly bumps my FPS up to around 60. When I look at afterburner, my GPU Usage/Power Usage is either darting up and down between 0 and 100%, or staying at around 5/6%. Overclocking does not help my performance.

My PSU is weak, so maybe there is a power conflict between a stressed CPU and GPU? However, when I drop
my CPU clock down to 3.3 GHZ (from 3.8), the same problem persists with the same weird power usage issue coming from afterburner.

My rig consists of :

I5 760 @ 3.8 Ghz
6 GB of Ram @ 1033 MHz
GTX 750 ti stock clock
450 Watt PSU

There are several adjustments in the Options that will significantly affect FPS, try turning down % trees and perhaps draw distance. Also the size of the battle will make a large difference due to the AI load. As a practical note, most people find anything over 15 FPS to be fully successful in terms of how the game plays.
