Yes this is a common problem because of the way TERA was originally coded. It only uses 1.5-2 cores of your CPU. So your CPU is bottlenecking you.

Overclocking your CPU would help. I dont remember exactly if people found a fix for the UI glitchyness.

Im running an AMD Phenom II 955 BE Overclocked to 3.8Ghz with a Radeon HD 6870 and pulling 100+ FPS at times. Otherwise im smooth sailing with at least 40-50 FPS.

I also have this problem, sometimes my CPU will be maxed (50%), and my GPU will be sitting at 0% usage. Hopefully they update TERA to use 4 cores ; )

Try reading topics on the tera.enmasse forums, lots of discussion about this problem and tricks to fix it there.

thx for the info mate, i will look into it

Mine runs at a solid 60+ fps with my i5-2500k stock.

how much was the processor if u dont mind me asking also wat motherboard are u using?

I'm getting 60+ fps as well with an i5 2500k @ 4.4ghz with a gtx 670.

I got the CPU on sale for only $190, and the motherboard is a GIGABYTE GA-Z68P-DS3. I paid like $110 for it.

not bad,
i OC'd my cpu upto 3.9ghz but only got 5~ more fps in cities.

I have mine oc'd to 4.7Ghz, but runs just fine on stock. I only have it oc'd because my room is really cold and my cpu never gets hot.

o for a sec i thought u gona say my room is really cold and my cpu keeps it warm. haha
