[Client] [ARAM] Butcher's Bridge not causing FPS drops, but Howling Abyss was.
I had assumed there was some unspeakable horror that made my Alienware randomly drop to around 45 fps in ARAM. When this new map was announced, I was excited but apprehensive about how my computer might handle it. Instead, I'm getting over 100 frames with no drops with the Butcher's Bridge map. What's up with that?
Repro:
- Purchase an Alienware r7 with 16 GB of RAM, Intel i7-8700 CPU, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
- Play ARAM on Butcher's Bridge.
- Observe the good frames, play the match best you can.
- Finish the match.
- Wait until Butcher's Bridge event is over.
- Play ARAM on Howling Abyss.
- Observe the random frame drops, some very severe. Play the match best you can
- Finish the match.
- Stare at your Alienware and wonder what happened for this disparity to exist.
