Gotcha!

I am confused.
I've had a problem with Terraria's framerate since update 1.2.2 or 1.2.3 or something. I forgot.
Anyway, basically the game's framerate drops when Frame Skip is on, even though I had a very decent pc to run it. A dualcore proc @ 3ghz, an nVidia 560GTX (1gb mem) and 4gb of RAM.
Now the funny part starts here:
I bought a new pc, now have a quadcore @3.7ghz (although Windows 7 and Terraria see 8, hyperthreading or something, don't ask me, I'm a dumbass), an AMD Radeon R9 290X (4gb mem) and 16gb of RAM.
And Terraria's framerate feels worse than before when Frame Skip is on. In-game framerate hovers around 45 and it feels very 'chunky'. When flying into a piece of unexplored map, it doesn't smoothly remove the fog, it just takes big bites out of it at a sluggish rate.
Something's wrong there, guys, and it needs to be sorted out. I'll keep on playing with Frame Skip off, just as I used to, but I feel there's a severe issue somewhere deep within Terraria's coding.
I've added my directx diagnostics report, just in case.
