Moved the game to an SSD, still get those lag spikes but it doesnt disconnect me anymore
Try this in you havn't to remove lagspikes, the game gets kind of weird with high frame rates.
Indeed, if you simply moved GW to an SSD (instead of an HDD? Does that still exist? ^^), you gained write/read on the disk. But the problem of screen hertz, although mitigated, will come back depending on the effects or the number of effects to be calculated on the screen.
After personally, i can't play any video game in 60Hz. 144Hz minimum in all games. Otherwise i notice it directly, so much it is distressing.
If you had installed GW on a HDD, then a secondary SSD (?) I would say how much ram do you have, which screen, which cable (standard) to plug it in, which graphics card, etc. Your tower may just be too "just" to play at more than 60Hz, hence your problems.
If your screen goes up to more than 60Hz, then you should set the option to 60Hz and not to: monitor refresh rate.
