just buyed RTX 3050 and the game.. but performance is really bad

[Wal]

i5 - 10400
16 gb ram
rtx 3050
Geforce experience recommended all setting to low quality. wtf ?
Ran Furmark FULL HD . AS IV Black Flag Ultra preset and Sekiro MAX settings. So results are great. No FPS drop. Perfomance are good. But in the Elden ring whatever presset i choose. FPS always drops from 40 to 30. game always freezes. What's your thougts ?
Checked local files and there is no problem

well RTX 3050 is not really that good of a card but it should be enough.....
dont confuse 3050 with regular Nvidia lineup 3060,3070,3080,3090

3060 is ~ 40-50% faster than 3050
GTX 1080 ~ 20% faster then 3050


I have 9400f , GTX 1080, 32GB ram and i can run WQHD all maxed stable 60fps
so FHD needs ~ 20% less ressrouces which is about exactly what my system is faster...


So you should be fine at FHD max Settings.
but if you only get 40fps with medium settings there clearly is a nother problem somewhere else

GPU overheating ?
Game bugs ?
GPU driver corrupted
CPU overheating ?

So in the end it was a messed up windows ...... which is close to GPU driver corrupted ;)

:) well as i said a 3050 should not have problems with ER in 1080p
and all the people who said GPU is too weak just have no clue

yeah, we assume that maybe video driver was installed somehow incorrect.. anyway there is no problem now.
i'm glad for that purchase of 3050 for my friend. because in our days in russia the prices is so tough. and that rtx was the only option for his requests.

Well i had a friend had 3050 and he didnt like it, probably was cheap. Btw i have RTX Nvidia 3060ti with 8GB and really good for No Man's Sky and many other titles. Too bad you dont have i7 intel cpu, would be much better than you got plus you need to double your ram and make sure you get that SSD!

nobody cares

Furmark is designed to kill gpu if used inproperly

There's a performance mod on the nexus download the performance+quality works wonders and the game still looks great.
Ryzen 3600 16GBRAM RX580 8GB SSD Windows 10
Before the mod I was getting 35to45fps on average in open world after it never go's under 45fps and is 60fps a lot and I get no stuttering at 1080p.
I also use Lossless Scaling to get the game to look 1440P and sharper

Hey folks. its funny, but all is gone after reinstall of operation system. Elden ring runs smooth without any stuuters. Also we've tried today Cyberpunk and works fine too... So... yeah.. thats it.. Curtain

Everyone should do this every few months you would surprised how much it help I have a laptop with a 1060 for 6 years and it still works fine with many triple A games.

Started the game fine locked at 60 fps. Roaming everywhere else at the start and inside the first two dungeons it fluctuates from 60 to 55. The farthest ive been is that broken down fort at the Limegrave site of grace and there its down to fluctuations around 45 fps, which is disappointing.
Can someone tell me if there are areas that will be worse than Limegrave?
Im out of free time and considering refunding if its going to be worse.

Yes anywhere it starts to rain it will drop near the 30s for you if you play ofline there's a performance mod helped me a lot

You bought the slowest rtx 30 series card not the fastest what did you expect ?

don't use geforce experience .rtx3050laptop can run it at custom quality

I agree 100%. I tried running Elden Ring with Geforce Experience optimization which changed all setting to off or low and raised resolution to 4K. The game ran like total crap on my 2060. I lowered the resolution a bit and raised some setting back to medium and Elden Ring ran better...not great, but better than what Geforce Experience recommended. I can get up to 60 FPS (usually 50-60) but there is some awkward stuttering. I should just bought this game on PS4 instead. Thought about it on PS5, but I heard that version was crap too...well, at launch. That is pretty sad that an older console can run a game as new as Elden Ring than newer hardware can.

This. The 3050 is a mass produced low quality consumer model. If you want pristine performance and quality graphics, you have to spend for the premium models. It's a luxury to own them and this remains the case even when a new series comes out.

When it comes to graphics card, the last two numbers are usually more important than the first two numbers.

I can't stress this enough to all of you:

1. If you're using a LAPTOP, PRE-BUILT, or DELL/etc. PC.. simply reinstall Windows from an official source. The versions of Windows that come on these machines is highly edited, and not suited for gaming straight out of the box. Furthermore, most of these machines will come with garbage like Office, McAffee, etc. trials all over them, running in the background no less.

The bad part about this is that most official Windows installations come with a lot of bloatware, so one of the first things you have to do after letting it FULLY update, is remove what you're not going to use. Things like "Game Mode", the XBox-related crap, etc. is ALL unnecessary. You can't remove some things (like most of the XBox related junk), but you can disable them.

2. Using software like "GeForce Experience" is going to make driver-level changes; meaning that there will almost certainly be conflicts with the in-game settings. One of the first things you should always do with a new game is change the graphics settings MANUALLY, inside the game, first.

Making driver-level changes is the LAST thing you want to do. The FIRST thing you want to do is make sure the game runs smoothly with what it provides. For instance, if the game does not have native anti-aliasing and you let "GeForce Experience" force anti-aliasing.. you're going to have big performance hits. If you use the nVidia Control Panel (NOT "GeForce Experience") to supplement what settings the game has, you can improve the native anti-aliasing without too much of a performance hit.

3. Using software like "GeForce Experience" to update your video drivers for you is a big no no and will ultimately cause instability. Also worth noting is that nVidia's own driver installers come packed with garbage, like the 3D sound nonsense, that has been proven over decades to cause problems.


My recommendations to any of you having issues:

1. Reinstall Windows from official media.

Power users do this every few months anyway just to get rid of Windows Update bloat, temp bloat, etc. There may be software to help do this without reinstalling Windows, but doing so doesn't take hours upon hours like it used to and is fairly easy.

2. Learn to install/update your drivers manually. (** Edited post with process I use below.)

I've posted this numerous times, but properly installing, uninstalling, and reinstalling your video drivers is just something you need to learn how to do. Using software like DDU is highly recommended, however it isn't 100% necessary if you're willing to sift through the directories and registry yourself to remove all traces of your installation.

When installing drivers with nVidia's installer, you ALWAYS want to select "Custom Installation", and ONLY install the Display Driver (can't uncheck it anyway) and the PhysX driver.

Doing this is sort of an annoying process every time you need to update your drivers (which should not be frequently), but necessary. Prior to updating my 1080's drivers for Elden Ring, I was using the "Doom Eternal" release drivers.. which were over a year old at that point.

As long as your system is stable, you are not obligated to update your video drivers just because a new version is out. I only updated mine on a whim because I was having weird lighting issues in "Elden Ring", and updating them solved said issues. Then 1.04 came along and performance got even better.

3. Don't use a bunch of silly bloatware, like overlays, etc.

Many overlays cause problems with many games. Typically, this is only an issue in games that use anti-cheat software, because said software will simply just not like these overlays. There are some exceptions with software like EAC that does have exceptions for more of the popular options.

Keep in mind even trusted software like MSI Afterburner can cause problems in some games. Simply having software like "Daemon Tools" installed can cause gross system instability as a whole, even if you aren't actively running the software while playing.


** Process I use for driver installation/reinstallation/removal:

1. Download DDU.
2. Download known stable driver version for your card. I recommend greater than 30 days old.
3. Disconnect PC from the internet. This is to keep Windows Update from installing drivers.
4. Reboot to Safe Mode MANUALLY. Do NOT let DDU reboot to Safe Mode for you. If you've never booted to Safe Mode before, this can cause a boot loop.
5. When in Safe Mode, run DDU; let it remove everything nVidia or Radeon-related and reboot to normal mode.

At this point Windows will load up the generic PnP display driver. Things will look weird, don't freak out.

6. Run the driver installer from earlier as an Administrator.
7. Select CUSTOM install, and ONLY select the Display and PhysX drivers. You need NOTHING else.
8. Once complete, reboot once more for good measure if you like. At this point you can reconnect to the internet as well.

As I stated above, you aren't obligated to update your driver every time there's a new version. nVidia in particular relies a lot on their community to help find and squash bugs, so brand new drivers are VERY often buggy. This is why I suggest versions greater than 30 days old.

For reference, I use the following hardware and the game runs flawlessly at 2K:

* i7 8086K
* 1080 Ti
* 16GB RAM @ XMP2.0

Both my CPU and GPU are at stock settings. Thanks to my motherboard my CPU boosts up to 5GHz across all cores when necessary. With moderate temperature in my room/house, I see as high as 65C on any given core with a Dark Rock Pro 4 cooler. Patch 1.04 not only brought even better performance for me, but also lower temps. Prior to 1.04 core temps were hitting as high as 72C under the same temperature circumstances.

It stands to reason that if you have better hardware than I do, the game should run even better for you. The fact that it doesn't means there is a problem in your system which you will have to figure out. I'm willing to bet it's almost 100% a need-to-reinstall-Windows problem, and/or a "GeForce Experience" forcing driver-level changes problem.
