Massive Performace and Stability Issues

[Eaglesaworb]

Specs:

Graphics: Nvidia GTX 980 4GB
CPU: Intel i7 Quad 5820K overclocked to 6.3Ghz
Ram: 12GB
Windows 8.1 64-bit

Can't run above 10 fps on set high priority by task manager. Can't even join a game, crashes every attempt. I have owned the game since it first appeared on steam and never had so many issues.

Question- do you only get issues with Verdun or other programs (i.e not just games) as well? Because i have weaker PC and i can run game quite well on max settings.
And when exactly did this problem appear? After latest update or sometime later?
Do you have drivers updated (not having drivers can lead even low-demanding game not run on high-end pc)? How long have you had your CPU overclocked? Overclocking CPU shortens the lifespan (both effective and overall) considerably, though its still quite rare for CPU to fry compared to other parts. This is in your case, however, quite nice probability on what i can find on Intel i7 Quad 5820K, as you seem to have overclocked it quite severely. Still might not be that.
How much space you have left in your hard drive out of total capacity? Keep in mind that its useful to leave aprox. 10 percent of hard drive free, i.e in case of 500GB hard drive, 50 GB left free, 1TB hard drive, 100GB free, etc.

I don't get any major issues in other games or programs with fps, crashes, glitches etc. The drop in performance was due to the latest graphical update.

Hmm obviously that machine is top of the line and other less capable machines run the game better so there has to be a connection between some settings/configuration/drivers and the performance issues. Do send the output_log txt file that can be found in verdun_data to support [at] verdungame.com also make sure that in the nvidia settings verdun is added to the list of applications.

Thank you, really nice to see not only community members but devs helping others with game issues.
