Low FPS with strong hardware

[juliano_soder]

Hi, I need some help 'couse I can't play the game with 15 - 16 fps. My computer has 96gb of ram and a rx5700 8gb gddr6, with 2 xeon 3.8Gh processors. I have the last amd drives and have reinstaller it twice. Once I removed it completly and installed over. I'm thinking in reinstall the game, but may someone can gime some tips. I played already almost 100 hours with my old video card, a gtx 1650 4gb gddr6, and I havent any issue, but now with a better video card I even can't play the game.

This company updated the graphics at least two times by now and raised the system requirements. When the DLC update will drop it will make the game unplayable for you because they will raise the sys req even more on the CPU side. Only thing you can do is to "download" an older version of the game.

cap your frame-rate at 30 and turn down setting until it's playable. I had to do it years ago with Witcher 3 on an old GTX 770

Luckily motion blur is A LOT better in today's games and helps in lower frame situations. So crank it.

I have to cap mine at 48fps maxed on a laptop 3070 if it makes you feel any better.

that's the point, looking at the gpu and cpu usage percentage it keeps at around 40% for cpu and 10% for gpu. The temperature is not even high enough to turn on the fans, sometimes it reaches 55 degrees Celsius and the funtions turn on and off right away. When I just installed windows 11, I tested the game and it was running fine, but after windows update it started crashing everything. And I made this post to get help to fix it. I've already reinstalled amd drives, and tried it through the AMD Adrenalien software, but no luck

Just a guess, but try switching off Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling (if it's on) in your System>Display>Graphics>Default Graphics Settings page. Also, check the Game Mode setting on the Gaming page, and the Display>Graphics to see if your game is set to Performance.

I had decided to format the computer, then I entered again to do one last test and guess what, it started working again. Now everything is on ultra at 35-44 fps, but the only strange thing is that if I put it on medium or low it still has the same amount of fps, and it doesn't seem to change anything.

I'm running an i9 processor and a Geforce 3080 video card, I have all SSD drives and I'm getting frame rates up into the 140 fps range, about the lowest I've seen is in the upper 70s.
Most of the time it runs around 100 fps.
I have 64 gigs of ram.

I have DLSS Super Resolution set to Auto and frame generation is off, and I don't have any frame-rate issues anyplace in the game.

The screen image is razor sharp, I don't like a lot of blurry images, at my age, my eyes do that on their own.

I'm running at 1440 by 3440 on a 34" monitor.
It seems like everyone running modern equipment should be able to find a setting that will give them a good frame rate and still have a nice sharp image on the screen.

I have NVIDIA low latency turned on, and HDR mode turned off.

Now I'm not running everything at max but it looks fantastic.

I wish there was an easy way to print out the video settings you are using in the game.

Here's a couple of samples...

You can see the frame rates in the upper left corner, 113 and 91 fps respectively.

OP, I hope you do realize that Xeons are not for computer games. It's like...96gb smdh son you do realize, God. Is this another one of those examples where somebody with more money than sense basically just blindly bought everything that cost the most money, because "more money = more better" or something stupid like that? Because this is why nVidia's inferior hardware, Apple's inferior hardware, and Dell's unbelievably inferior "alienware" stuff all keeps selling despite being objectively worse hardware for more money.

This game doesn't even use multicore well, so what you're better off with is high clocks and better IPC. IIRC this game doesn't respond much to vcache 5800X3D shouldn't make much a difference outside of IPC uplift. So basically you are now realizing the hard way that your 96gb s mostly just sitting there doing nothing, almost all your Xeon cores are literally sitting there doing nothing, and if you don't believe me you can open task manager and watch pretty much 90% the capacity of your hardware doing nothing at all but idling because you have a professional business workload type rig and it is not a computer gaming rig, in the same way as that Quadros can perform way worse in games than an older gen Radeon. This game is largely GPU dependent and relying on iirc 2 cores mainly, so you're basically also realizing that a 5700 is pretty much a 2060 super or 2070 level card, and that 2070S/5700XT is getting like 40fps in this game at 1440p. A 1080ti is a 1080p GPU for Cyberpunk even before Phantom Liberty update. I cannot even imagine trying to suffer on a 1650 super and trying to play this.

That's terrible. Oh man I hope you are meaning 1440p laptop, because that's just barely better than what I get on 1440p ultra with a 5700XT.

Yeah I noticed this too, that is why I finally decided on just running everything all ultra because after ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around a bit I discovered changing things like crowd density and the FOV slider along with other settings didn't seem to change much.
