Stuck at 40FPS
 

Hello -

I have a fairly uber PC build. I have read several donze threads on here with suggestions. Unfortunately the one about performance from the FAQ thread will not load for me, so not sure if archived. I have set my FPS to 60 as suggested, which initially improved my performance.

Currently I still get hitching especially when I turn quickly. Additionally, I cannot get to 60FPS, it hovers around 39 40 still, and 20s when moving rapidly.

When I try and dig up information on which settings to have on/off, there have been a lot of different opinions. Most have not netted me any changes.

I play in windowed mode. 2550x1440. (note, when I changed this, it was still the same)

Here are my questions:

1. What kind of FPS should I realistically expect in this game? Best case scenario. Is 40 about right?

2. Is the hitching when turning quickly still a thing even with good performance?

3. What are some obvious things I should have turned off?

Thanks.

And honestly I am not. This is not a brand new build - have played BF4 etc... since launch on this build. Just looking for what I could possibly be doing wrong in P99 setup.

Got shadows on?

I do not. But just to make sure were talking about the same ones:

Display > Advanced > Shadows <-- Box is unchecked.

Would having Shadow Clip plane max matter, eventhough its off?

If you have a gsync monitor on and play games in windowed mode, it will screw over your fps. Not sure if it's a bug or what. Thankfully the solution is to change gsync to be fullscreen only in your settings.

Hrm thx for this tip. I think I'm gonna return my IPS I just got cause back light bleed for the TN dell 144hz gsync. Slim bezels

This might be obvious but.. You have this slider set to the max of 100 right?

I do not, its set at 60. I tried turning off Gsync on windowed mode, also did not help.

Thanks for all the help, ill keep trying other things.

Yeah, something is fishy. I have a significantly worse GPU than you (1060) and I get 90-100 FPS playing in 2560x1440p res with shadows on. Unless I'm in EC tunnel then I get 20-30. I have a gsync monitor as well.

wow - 100fps?

Would you mind SS'ing your settings ?

Also your .ini file? Trying to get to the bottom of this.
