"Shaders" setting in "Advanced Options"

Post » Sat Jan 28, 2012 7:14 am

I noticed that this (for my setup anyway) is the real FPS Killer ever since the 3 updates for DX11, textures, and so on a while ago. With the Shaders option on Ultra I hop between 40-50 and I get godawfull stuttering, and with shaders on 60 it is at around 60-70 again like before (with everything else on Ultra mind you). I wanted to know, what does this option really encompass? Number of complex shaders? Detail of Shaders? What is the difference practically between Extreme and Ultra shaders?

Thanks!
