Now this is getting very odd, I have no background processes running that take up much memory or CPU and no matter what I do to the graphical settings I only yield a one or two FPS difference. With FSAA and Anistropic Filtering AND particles down to 0 I still get lag patches!

This is very strange.

No advice at all?

Hi! I've been playing the game for around 20 months now and I've been meaning to ask about the strange FPS issues for a very long while.

My system is as follows:

Nvidia 9800GTX OCX
Intel Q6600 Quad Core
4gig 800MHZ RAM
X-FI Xtreme Audio Sound Card
Vista Home 64-Bit
24 MBpS Sky Broadband

Whilst this system works very well with everything it tackles (achieving a fairly steady 15-30FPS on Crysis Very High, 25-60FPS on Age of Conan etc) I get huge client-side lag spikes on CoV, dropping my FPS as low as 12 (especially in Nerva or Sharkhead, or whilst looking at particle dense effects such as smoking chimneys). This only happens in exterior zones and I never get lag in actual missions (unless, of course, it's server-side). Does anyone have any similar issues?

Thanks!
