Previous to the latest patch I could run Eve with all graphics settings to high, after patch the screen flashes so bad its going to give me a seizure. Frame rate seems to have dropped too for the few minutes I could stand to try to spin my ship in the station. Anyone else have a similar issue or is it just me?

Sorry man, I think this maybe all you. Mine works fine. But, I do have anti-aliasing turned off. Might want to try it.

I found the problem, sort of. It seems either AMD Catalyst 12.4 didn't like Eve on my computer, or the latest Eve update didn't like catalyst 12.4. I reverted to catalyst 12.2 and Eve is working just fine.

That is good to know, thanks for the info!

AMD has just released the new 12.6, I don't know for sure it makes any difference but it's maybe worth a try!

Thanks again.

So as a test i am going to update to 12.6

Currently with two TQ and two Sisi clients I am getting 16 FPS when in my CQ when i undock it goes down to 3 FPS on all 4 clients getting away from the station helps but it does not recover if I stay need it and it does not warp AMD 6870 current memery usage of 1024 964 Dedicated 597 Dynamic 100% GPU load

CPU is 4 core and is using about 50 percent

shutting down a client results in 50 FPS in space for the 3 that is left 96% FPU load when the fourth client was shut down usage droped to 66%

after the patch

950 581

26# CPU 47 % GPU

In space render all 4 clients improves to 23 FPS

3 clients after looking around a little show 60 FPS


But station rendering is still hurting my FPS on undock but 12.6 works

If i dont know something about EVE. I check https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/ISK_The_Guide

See you around the universe.
