Can I run this game?

[Cultist]

My specs:

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core Processor 3.20 GHz
RAM: 16.0 GB

I've tried Attila and I can't get above 45fps and the game stutters, even on medium settings. I've tried the demo for this and it hovers at around 50fps but it drops to 30 fps when I zoom into a fight.

What am I missing? Any help?

[Cultist]

Yeah, I'm not sure what's wrong. Attila and the demo of this both struggle to stay at 50fps, especially if I zoom in.

lol let me guess, you use max settings, and 4 times unit squad size.

No, I use standard unit size with high quality graphical settings, not ultra.

Thanks for the useful input btw.

I am trying to figure out if you are joking, because I can run the game easily on a far less powerful computer. Maybe you are using some seriously mind numbingly cpu hogging apps and what not, v-sync and shadows is terribly innefficient for a computer to run. Maybe that is why you are even asking this question.

[Cultist]

No, it's a brand new PC that I've only had for about a week. All that's installed is Steam, Chrome and Avast Antivirus.

Even at low settings the in-game benchmark gives me an average of about 45fps.

Seems to be a compatability issue with either my hardware or some internal issue that I am not aware of. That's why I'm asking for help in the discussion/s.

something is wrong with your computer 0_o Sorry, I guess I must take my leave, this is way above my computer level.

I know some games dont like ryzen CPU and Intel GPU combo's. Are you playing in full screen?
Do you have chrome open?

I know some demo's are not optimized.

[Cultist]

Fullscreen and windowed mode result in the same performance. I have had Chrome open every time I have tried to play the game, would that really affect it?

[JusTheory]

Is your power set for high performance? That hardware should kill the game requirements. I imagine you have up to date drivers?

[Cultist]

My drivers are completely up-to-date and I've got the game set for high, which only gets me about 38fps with stuttering.

Even dropping it down to low doesn't let me sit at 60 during battles. I have no idea why, I can't find a solid reason. I've emailed CA and even they're confused.

All in all, a very frustrating experience.

Lmao i have a NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030,a Intel Pentium CPU G4400 Processor 8 GB of RAM and i have no problem running Shogun 2 at 60 FPS on High and Ultra quality(i only use Ultra graphic settings for taking cinematic screenshots) you're probably having some issues with compatibility other than that i have no clue.

[shiggies713]

as everyone else said this game should run easily with those specs.
I run everything on ultra with a 730gt and have no fps problems, though tw games are more cpu intensive, and i do have an i7 6700, and a ssd with all my page file on that.

Maybe a bios issue?

I dont know much about it but I think i read somewhere if you have a 6 core processor and then you have an amount of ram that isn't divisible by 6 it can cause some weird issue. Like you should have 12 or 24 gb of ram is what the theory is, but again im just speculating trying to help.

[mans got drip✅]

I have a GTX 1070 and get to 30~ maybe a bit lower fps when zooming in. (Well my CPU is a bottleneck) So you should be able to play it pretty easy.

[Aldodrem]

You can't run this game because this fecalmatter is broken. You hit play and steam says the game is running than 2 seconds later steam says it isn't becuase the game auto crashes on exection. installed all the stupid stuff manually the pinned help thread tells you to install and even set game to windows 7 compatiblity mode.

GAME IS BROKEN DON't BUY

Your computer is very good, but not for gaming. Your graphics card is good enough but it is your CPU that is the problem. Ryzen is very good for content creation but really bad for gaming, this is espeacilly true for TW games as they are very CPU intensive. A six core CPU is not bad unless you can overclock it. But you are using a CPU that is non-overclockable, forcing you to stay at 3.2ghz. Generally a 4.2ghz (or higher) clock speed is nessescary for your TW to run at a reasonable frame rate even when zooming in. Also, are you using a SSD? A SSD would help massively with frames when zooming in as it processes information much faster then a traditional hard drive. I personally would recomend you get a overclockable processor, maybe a 1600x and then overclock it. I hope this helps.
May your framerates be high and you temperatures low. =)
