I have my Computer to run Multi cores on Diablo 3 as well with nvidea control panel.

I will be running getting 85-110 fps on high then bam down to 15-20 randomly. Its only this game as i play Bf3 ultra on 75 fps. The lag doesn't change when i drop settings to low. i was wondering if anyone else had this problem and fixed it or is still having the problem? Im willing to try anything. ive dropped drivers and upgraded them to the newest as well.
I do have the latest Windows drivers dont know why its not picking it up

Ngarda,

With vsync enabled as your prefs file indicates it is, you shouldn't be seeing more than 60 fps and it ought to be stable provided your computer can maintain it. There will be spots in the game (Act 3 in particular) that can cause it to dip though and there really isn't anything you can do about that.

I'd recommend though that you disable the fps limiters you have enabled in-game as they can cause unexpected behavior. I'd also disable the LowFX setting as your hardware shouldn't need it to perform well. Lowering the Shadow Quality setting by a notch or two may help a little though.

Ngarda,

I'd leave vsync enabled.

Also, I'm not really an AMD fan for processors, but I suspect your BIOS is mis-configured for your chip. It's only showing as being a 3-core chip in the D3Debug and I suspect it would in a dxdiag/msinfo report as well if you took one.

I found this thread on another forum discussing this symptom and it looks like the user found a setting for "cpu core control" set to manual. When they set it to automatic, all 6 cores were shown as being present afterwards.

[edit]

I've found another user with an FX-6100 (different symptom) and his is also showing 3 cores in the D3Debug file, though his dxdiag is showing all 6 cpus (cores). This tells me it may be an issue with how the game is describing the cpu info and may not be an indication of a problem at all. Ill check with our QA team tomorrow after the holiday to find out.
