Have you tried to delete your eqclient.ini file and restart the game? You should just rename the file to create a backup if you want.

Sounds more like a driver/hardware issue assuming you're not running a 1997 Packard Bell or something. If you aren't bottlenecked by your CPU then your GTX 560 should be able to handle zerg raids with logs and spell effects on, etc.

1. Try disabling any antivirus incl Windows Defender, though I doubt that's the problem. Most third-party antivirus apps are exceptionally shitty and hog tons of resources. Basically the only one I trust beyond Windows Defender is Avast.

2. Reinstall GPU drivers: use Display Driver Uninstaller if you're lazy - reboot into safe mode, run Display Driver Uninstaller.exe, select your GPU manufacturer and click "Clean and restart". After restarting, run it again and click "Update Display Driver".

3. Run a hard drive diagnostic scan via your firmware's boot select or use Seatools - just do all the Seatools scans, if any of them fail then your hard drive's days are numbered. If scans pass, load command prompt with administrative privileges and run "chkdsk /f" and "sfc /scannow" on all drives/partitions.

4. If still shitty FPS, do a new P99 install from scratch.

its unrelated kind of,..

Is your CPU overlocked? Or even in the bios is it set to overclock?
That can cause major issues with titanium client for some reason.
