Serious Sam 3: BFE Bad Framerate?

Closed
Za21

My Specs:
GTX 660 Ti
Athlon ii x4 640
4 GBS Ram
1 TB HDD

Okay, for some reason, Serious Sam 3 gives my friend and me bad framerate (My friend has a 560 Ti and a i5-2500k) and we keep freezing and getting bad frames throughout the game. It only doesn't lag if I set the Graphics setting to "Lowest", and if I change EVEN ONE GRAPHICS SETTING, it starts getting about 40 or less. It shouldn't be doing this at all. I've tried reinstalling, console commands, framerate fix threads, etc. and I'm out of ideas.

Anyone have a similar problem, or a fix?

Didn't fix :/

Although, I noticed that on everything ultra (beta or not), I run at 60+ fps on survival, but the campaign still runs bad no matter what.

Yeah, I own every SS game (that isn't a spin off), and it is really fun with friends. Wish I could do 3 :(.

That's weird, since it ran fine on a HD6850 for me. If you can't find your answer on the internet, you could always ask the devs. They got back to me pretty quickly after the ending didn't trigger properly for me.

I don't have that problem. I have an i7 first gen, 8gbs and a 5800 series AMD HD Radeon.

However I know people did have this problem with optimization but there's nothing on pcgamingwiki about the game issue so i'm not sure what happened about it.

I have 50+ FPS on the survival, and about 30-40 on the campaign. I'm running at max resolution (max everything, 1080p), I have an i5 2500, AMD 7770, 8gb ram.

No reason for your system to perform so crap. My old Radeon HD 5770 runs Serious Sam 3 BFE at around 40-50 at 1080p on mostly low settings.

I have an OC 2500k, OC 660 Ti, 1920X1200, and 16GB RAM. My settings are a notch below maximum and runs at 60fps under V-sync, outside of massive particle clouds. The game has gotten a much improved performance over the year and still sucks up resources. Game is a resource hog for newer computers.
