Low FPS

When I first started the game I was playing the tutorial and there I had like normal good FPS no frame drops, completely smooth gameplay. But when I drrive around the map I have mostly 20-30 fps, in one Region they went up to 78fps but only for a short period of time. But also and very often I have less than 10 fps and that is not playable. My question is: Is my CPU just bad or is this a problem with just the game?

Your cpu is 20% better than my i7 1195h in a mini computer and I can get a steady 31fps. But I lowered some settings.

If your playing at 1900 x 1080 try changing the resolution to 1600 x 900. Are all your video settings for the game on high? If so, maybe knockdown mirror quality and shadows to medium. Play around with other setting until you get a steady 30fps. You might have to put all settings om medium and a couple on low.

Try driving in different views, some views may give you higher fps cause the game doesn't have to render as much of the cars interior or mirrors.

If you have windows, make sure your power settings is set to high performance and not balanced. If its balanced, windows will lock your CPU usage to about 75%. High performance can give you 126% or so if your CPU has turbo boost. I experimented with that and went from 12fps in Fernbus to 27fps. It makes a HUGE differance.

I also recommend to download hwmonitor. Then leave it running to get your computer stats after you play the game. It can show you CPU and memory utilization and lots of other stuff to help you see what might be the bottleneck in performance for the game.

Thanks @redgreen999 for answering, I really lowered everything in game but it makes only 5fps differnce to the highest settings, but I try your things and update here my progress.

Use this link to see how to set a windows 11 PC to high performance. By default windows sets this as balanced. Going from balanced to high performance likely will bring your fps up by 15 or so.

If you use a different Operating system, then research it on youtube. Windows 10 would be very similar. I have no idea about MacOS
