Forum:Question on framerate

Does the server you are on effect the frame rate? I am on the Pacific North West and play on the same server that I had in Florida. My frame rate is somewhere between 13 and 18. Would it increase if I go to a west coast server?

 * No idea if I'm doing this right, but Tom, what your thinking of is your Latency. Latency is affected by range as it is the time it takes for your computer to communicate to the network and such.  Framerate is mostly affected by your graphics card.  Thus, when you enter areas of high activity, your graphics card struggles to keep us resulting in a lower framerate.  Hope this helps.

 * I've noticed a slight change in connection between Shadow Council and Earthen Ring(US). But remember; Your framerate can be affected by other people's connections as well, I've tried to avoid Major Cities since WoW became popular outside of the Blizzard Community.-- Sir Tristram (Speak, mortal.
