kindiboy: 30 is low for this game, because it can drop to 15 if you have alot of monsters to fight.
what you are describing suggests something is working in the background, because the game doesn't do that on its own. if you have anti-virus switch it off if that didn't work, try raising the texture memory size. FPS always go hand in hand with how well a game runs it doesn't mean it's the only factor.
Kurgen: I only stated a frame-rate of 30 to illustrate why it's irrelevant when suffering this stutter. It's not the first time a new game has had this problem, and it's normally fixable by patch or video driver update. At the moment I'm tolerating it. what you are describing suggests something is working in the background, because the game doesn't do that on its own. if you have anti-virus switch it off if that didn't work, try raising the texture memory size.

My gaming PC is about as clean-running a PC as you're ever likely to find; only used for games & graphics/photo work, no anti-virus, no firewall (except Windows own crappy one), no anti-spy/malware... in short, no extraneous background processes that might interfere. It's a game or driver issue, with 100% certainty, and the fact that I'm not the only ATi user to report this problem speaks volumes.
am an ATI user everything is working the way it should.
