Has anyone any idea why my PA slows down spectacularly if the mouse cursor is on the Planetary Annihilation screen (be it menu,game or system editor)? Basically my FPS are reduced by a factor of 4 if my mouse cursor happens to be hovering over the game, but if I move the mouse out of the game window (in windowed mode) my FPS increase four fold. Of course this makes game practically impossible to play! (in full screen mode my FPS is always very slow). I have a GTX680 AND A q6600 AND 6GB. Thanks.
Could You tell us what are the numbers? In window/fullscreen/mose off the window? I'm trying to look at it from a perspectvie where having something (PA) in the "main thread" task makes the CPU or GPU - hmm I don't know? maybe temps go to high and systems slows down? Is this happening in any other situations? It would be also nice to see your dxdiag I think
