Need some advice on raising fps.
I've been running between 30-40 fps, no matter what setting I use, High, Medium, Low, a custom mix. different DLSS settings. Nothing seems to raise the fps.

Running an MSI GE76 raider with -
RTX 3070 Laptop GPU (Latest Driver)
11th gen i7-11800H 2.30ghz
16gb rab
30gb v ram
Installed on SSD

I'm a bit of a newb so any tips on what I could do to get some significant fps increase would be great.

I've closed pretty much all background applications to reduce CPU load as well.

I have nearly the same set up but with a rtx 3060 and i just set everything to medium (I know it hurts) but it runs great.

Same here, I'm running a Desktop:
Intel i7-11700K 11th Gen 3.60GHz
32GB RAM
RTX 3080Ti
2TB NVMe SSD Drive

Have messed around with all the settings, only time I can get over 65FPS is when everything is set on low. There's got to be a issue here. :steamfacepalm:

Laptop specs do not equal desktop specs. Your GPU and other components are restricted to the low power of the laptop plug in "brick".

In simple terms, laptop gaming is not good for games like this, older games from 2017, sure you can run those and some indie games or low graphics games like minecraft.

But get a desktop pc, laptop is mediocre at gaming

I've tried that already, without any joy.
Have even lowered resolution from 1440p to 1080p, to see if that made any difference but it didn't.
Going through driver and software updates now, see if anything is out of date, so far nothing that I can see though.

Game is CPU heavy. You bassicly need a Ryzen X3D cpu for the game to handle the load.

DETAILS setting in video settings. Put it to low. Fixes everything.

You should be getting 60~80 fps on Ultra at 1440p with that. I'm assuming you're on the latest driver, if so it won't hurt to downgrade it to previous version and see how it goes from there. DDU if necessary.

Okay, so there was a couple of updates chipset and stuff, but unfortunately still no joy this end.
Thanks, I'll try downgrading my NVIDIA driver see if that helps the problem.

Tried old NVIDIA driver made it actually worse, on low settings getting just over 60FPS now.
I think it just going to need a patch or optimizing for this generation of hardware.

Anybody running on a laptop that's had any success with setting tweaks? Aside from performance mode, running fans overdrive to lower temps, that sort of stuff.

That's the weird thing, I'm getting very similar FPS no matter what settings. Maybe a 5fps increase at most between low and High.
Definitely needs more optimisation.

I've just switched between full Ultra, High and Medium presets while stood on the bridge where it bounces between 40fps and 60fps and at best there was a 3fps bump to the low end. That can't be my system chugging if there is only a minuscule change in performance when switching between presets.

That's what I was thinking, usually there's at least a reasonably noticeable difference.

My pc is sleeping with this game like it's barely used, something weird is going on. I have sub 60 fps soemtimes and I have a i7 14700k and rtx 4080. Max 90 fps but in general it's more like 75.
