Stuck at 40FPS

[Fingurs]

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.

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.
