Hi!
I've got a HP Pavilion dv6 gamer laptop, with an AMD Fusion A8 3510M (4 x 2,50GHz, 3MB Cache), AMD Radeon HD 6755M G2 CROSSFIRE DUAL GRAPHICS 1GB DDR5, 8GB DDR3 1333MHz and Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I'm on the lowest graphics (expect Texture filtering, that's on tri.), and with 1366x768 resolution. When I look to the middle of the map, I have about 18-20 FPS. It's ridiculous. It can run Skyrim on medium graphs, Sniper Elite v2 on medium-high, but WoT nooo. My other PC could go with medium graphs and had 30 FPS normally (Inter Q8300, Nvidia 8600GT and 2 GB Ram, Windows XP)
I have my AMD driver updated... i think...
While playing it uses 10% of the CPU (max), and somehow my System uses 3 and a half RAM.

Any ideas? It's a bit ugly on low graph
Thanks,

Uinstal win7 and instal xp

Interesting, I have a dv6 too, not a gamer laptop tho, it's ati rad 5470 and 2.2 Ghz dual amd, 3Gb ram. When the laptop was brand new I had around 40fps with med-high graphics (it was in the beta tho) now I have 5 fps sometimes, normally around 10-20. I have no idea why, I'm running on low settings now with every possible option switched off and still. Probably I'd need a system wipe but can't do it yet. :P

edit: I removed clouds like 3-4 days ago and for a day I had ~30fps again but it dropped back to the above mentioned low amount the next day. Skyrim and Fallout 3 runs smoothly tho. Figures.

WoT is heavy on older machines and seems  to have a memory leak.  I too have a low FPS so upgraded my ram from 3 to 4 gig and installed a 2 gig video card.  FPS is slightly better, However to play this game you really should go for an I5 or I7 cpu.  I also  ran the game from my secondary hard drive (D:) which helped speed up the loading of the game although you cannot run the XVM Tool from anything other than the C: Drive.

I am also thinking of re-installing XP as I'm running Vista.

For a quick test  drive your tank forward whilst looking at the ground then look up as "normal"...If your FPS was higher when looking down you know your system isn't up to the game.

@bloodwolwo:
I won't do that, I need the 7 because of 2 thing: 1. It can use all the 8 GB RAM, 2. Some games and applications won't run on XP.

Anyway, too bad, but thanks.

If you have a laptop, try changing your power management. It sounds silly, but it worked for my laptop. I had to change it from High to Balanced, go figure... lol. Some dude in another topic said it had to do with Windows messing up some settings. Its easy to test ingame with alt-tab, so why not give it a shot? With High power settings I had 5-15 fps and with Balanced power settings I have 40-60 fps. WoT is on lowest settings ;-)

Na, I've got a little more FPS now (still not a reactor though). I went into the AMD Vision Engine Control Center, and set everything to performance. I tested everything (first, I set everything to max quality, woo, the loading screen was ugly when I started from the launcher, then, I set everything to performance, now that was useful). I even tried turning of the dual video card :D well, that only gives less FPS.

@ZwabberiX:
I will try that now, I hope it helps.

@ZwabberiX:
Just one thing. You mean, for example, I have a HP, and I have a HP Power Manager. There, I have a Power Saver, a HP Recommended, and a Performance Centric. Which one I should use? Or I need to change it somewhere else, inside Windows?

Don't know what the call it exactly on HP or english windows, but on my Asus laptop I have a (roughly translated): Energy Saving Setting. It's in the bottom right of the screen in Windows. Also I can find it on Windows Vista under Control Panel / Laptop / Power Setting. Its used to save power when you for instance on the train and you need to conserve power, so you would use a Low setting which probably will make your screen darker etc.

Which setting might help for you I can't say, just try it. I had to change it from High to Balanced, some other dude had to change from Balanced to High.

Let me know if this makes any sense, lol.

Pfff... even NASAs supercomputer can't run this game constantly on a decent fps...
