Better Performance Tips
I will admit off the bat I have a 3,500$ PC that has a 4080 and a ryzen 9, however I got only 80 FPS on all low which is fine I was aware of the problems. After installing the latest NVIDIA app I am literally running at Max everything at 1440p for 135FPS. Just a tip if anyone is in a similar situation

Change the shadows to medium and watch your fps go to 170.

I have a 10900k and 3070 but this game is heavy on the graphics card not the cpu.

I am running it at 1080p and with everything on ultra apart from the mirrors settings which are all set to high and medium and shadows set to medium and I get 100 to 125 fps with some lows of 85.

Like I said. Shadows are what kills the frame rate and all of the other settings only make up to 15 fps difference from ultra to high and medium.

Since the last update the frame rate has been reduced by nearly 10fps though.

Man but this makes shadows look so so bad. You get this awful flickering from foliage shadows on medium that I just can't stand. Hope they either fix that or improve performance in general cause on a 2080 super at only 1080p with DLSS on quality I'm getting disappointing fps drops.

Another very badly optimized game.
