The reason I say this, it's different when you record in an empty server and a server with 32-64 players. More players, less FPS (Generally).

Used this rig in beta and several tournaments including part of Alienware. I get 60 frames on the karkand maps as well on average. Seeing how we had to record all of our matches this worked well for me.

Question is what processor are you using? In my video I talked about there being extreme bottle necking in this game...

And the recording comment.. Do you run two hard drives? There are a few setting changes you need to make including a registry edit to help as well...

I believe 90 is the highest it will go.
