My frame rate goes from a vsync of 30 frames and 60 frames in different parts of the game. Is that normal? Thats if I have vsync on. It gets annoying so I turn off vsync even if it means going over 60 frames.

I have a gtx 660 and i5 2320 3.0 ghz cpu.

What graphics settings do you use?

I use the optimized settings of geforce experience. Some things are at medium settings and some at very high settings.

It does the same thing even if I put the settings on low.

I was able to get 80+ fps on Crysis 2 MP (@ 1080p, DX9, lowest setting) all the time with single GTX580 + i5 @ 4+ghz, but Crysis 3 MP (@ 1080p, lowest setting) seem to run much slower than that with single GTX680, i5 @ 4ghz
Maybe cos i ran Crysis 2 MP in DX9 but i was able to record @ 100 fps(without losing fps) on small maps with GTX580.


I'm using the lowest graphics settings for max fps, but my fps still drops to med-high 50s if i record the game during MP.

(min fps drops to med 40s during recording if v-sync is off)
i record with msi afterburner @ half size, 80fps on to 2nd hard drive so it doesnt slow down the game too much.
just did fraps benchmark(F11) on one of the recordings and got ave fps = 65, max fps = 75, min fps = 56
