I"ll try to explain this in the least confusing way possible.
Last December, my laptop (which I've had since September 2009) started to have an FPS drop every three seconds (seems like precisely three seconds). Up until this time I had been playing the same games on the exact same graphics settings. Nothing had changed.
To fix it at the time, I bought a very nice cooling pad, which DID fix the problem, until last week. It has started again, unfortunately. The cooling pad no longer seems to have an effect. I've never opened my laptop before so I"m not sure how dusty it is inside.
When I run the fps graph in game, i can see the dip, very distinguishable and consistently every 3 seconds. Is my card getting old? Too hot maybe? It is very distracting to play with. Sometimes when I come out of warp in high sec, i can literally see the station getting closer, then slows down for a second, speeds up, slows down, until I'm sitting right on top of it.
If anyone could please help me identify and possibly fix this problem, I would greatly appreciate it. If it matters, this exact same problem happened when I tried playing the Magika demo. Also I run everything on max graphics
Thanks in Advance |

28 views, nothing. Dang
Is there any CCP employee who reads/works with people on their issues at all?
Would be great to have someone help me figure this out.
I'll be checking back every day

Angry person that cannot read. Noted and ignored.
Anyway this isn't a bug. It is simply a computer issue that affects EVE that I'm seeking help or advise with.

Its a bug. However, are you sure it was December? I first noticed this extremely annoying behavior in January following the Incursion 1.1.0 patch.
Also, bug reporting about the issue is rather futile, as CCP will just close the bug report with the words "unable to reproduce"... *sighs*
