Isn't WOW an online game? Slow internet would obviously affect your performance, no?

it would affect latency only, and when i say slowed down i mean slowed down, not slow, im still getting like 2-3mb from my usual 5mb

Hello icikle,

I see that you have the "Anisotropic filtering" set to 8x.

Here's a quote from the NVIDIA Control Panel:

Description:
Anisotropic texture filtering affects the crispness of textures.

Typical usage scenarios:
* The image will be less blurred at higher settings, however, you may experience a decrease in performance
* If the application has it's own anisotropic filtering controls, it is recommended to use the application-controlled settings

I believe that if you set this to "Application Controlled" you might see an increase in FPS.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you

I would say there is a very slight increase in performance, i consistently get 30fps in busy cities and about 40-50 elsewhere, but is the maximum 60fps, cos i hear tales from ppl who get like 100fps in quiet areas and i cant get over 60, also would the multisampling colour depth on my resolution make a diff?

Hey icikle,

Yes, it would make a difference.
In the Resolutions Tab of the Video settings, is Virtual Sync turned on or off?
What Color setting are you currently using?

[icikle]

Virtual sync is ticked which i believe means its on.
Refresh rate is 8x
Multisampling is : 24bit colour 24bit depth 1x multisampling
Im using desktop gamma

[Artellos]

Try turning off the Virtual Sync
That refresh rate doesn't sound familiar
Doesn't it say "60Hz" (possibly a different number)

[icikle]

it doesnt seem to make any difference

[Artellos]

And the refresh rate?

Regards,
Olrik

[icikle]

60hz

[icikle]

i think vertical sync may have fixed it, im now getting 216fps in quiet areas

[Artellos]

Good to hear I thought it might be virtual sync.
It 'binds' the FPS to the refresh rate of the monitor.

Glad to be of help!
