I recently built a new PC with the following specs:
Intel Core i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz (4 Cpu's)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti
4096MB RAM
-
8x Anisotropic
8xQ AA
I get over 1,000 frames per second when nothing is loaded, but only 30fps when 55,000(ish) bricks are loaded. This is essentially the same performance I was getting with a Core 2 Duo (3.0GHz) with a 256mb GPU.
Also, I can easily max Crysis, so the GPU is not the problem. I've also tried multiple drivers. Does this have anything to do with OpenGL?
