FPS Issue during 1000+ fleet fights

Hello everyone, I am at my wits end, hopefully you can shed some light on this really odd issue I'm having.

My computer is as follows:
i7 920 @ 3.3GHZ
ASUS P6T SE, 9.20 version drivers
16GB RAM
Gigabyte Windforce 670 GTX, latest drivers
1920x1080 resolution native

I just recently participated in a massive fleet fight with over 1000 players.

My FPS dropped to 1-2, with a lot of freezing in between.



- FPS still remained at 1-2 FPS with highest graphical settings, and even lowest graphical settings.
- CPU usage remained at 30-40%
- NO HEAT ISSUES



However, I am getting perfect FPS when there is less than 1000 or so players on the grid.

This is not related to TIDI, as other people are getting 60FPS in the same scenario with setups worse than mine. TIDI just slows down the game, it doesn't affect FPS.

I am really really not sure what is causing this massive fps drop in huge fleet fights.

Please, please somebody tell me if they've noticed something similar and fixed or or not. I will buy a new computer just to play EVE if I can't get this fixed.

Thanks!

This does not happen to any other game I play.
