I have a problem where sometimes my fps is at 40-60 fps but as soon as i join a pvp (some not all) it dropps to 5-25fps

Has anyone else had anything close to this problem?

    Right, umm first off let me say my pc is outdated but I had no problems running sto before the update to LOR, never had fps drop or anything like this before, ok so my specs
    .
    • System:
    • Windows XP 64bit <<< Amazing right? Someone still using XP
    • Service Pack 2 (there is no SP3 For 64bit :/)
    .
    • Computer:
    • Intel Core 2 Quad
    • Q8400 @ 2.66GHz
    • 4.00 GB of RAM
    .
    • Video:
    • NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT
    • 1 GB RAM on video Card
    .
    I also run STO on the Recommended setting for the longest time, and had no fps drop in the past, why should i have to downgrade to the lowest setting (which doesnt really fix it tho, still get low fps that way) just to play a game that ran fine in the past?

    Ok most of that PC is like you said Pretty outdated, with that said, I'd seriouslly either look into upgrading the video card or a new system all together, if that PC already has a 550Watt+ power supply then I'd just pop in a new video card.

    If your willing an able that would be a good upgrade from your current :).

    But me personally I'd do a complete system upgrade >.<'.
