Fps drop

[Maydos.]

Hi, i just bought the game, it runs smoothly, i play on medium-high settings, i get around 90fps inside and 60-65 fps outside. But every 4 minutes, my game lags and stops for 2-3 seconds and then it comes back. Can you help me out about this lag. Thank you!
My Laptop Specs:
Windows 11
RTX 3050
i5-12500H
16GB ram
The game installed on harddisk that i connect it to my laptop via cable.

--Another thing, when sinematics runs my fps drops at 30fps, can i change it to 60 or unlimited?

All pre-rendered cutscenes are 30fps, you should have consistent fps with in-game cinematics though.

My guess, the issue is right here. Better to install it on your laptop's SSD.

Finally! Im not the only one! Same thing bruh!
i5-12450H
rtx 4060 laptop GPU.
16GB RAM.
so if this important my game installed on internal SSD - so this is not SSD issue.
look. click the timelines under video. 1:18 / 3:41

honestly, I'm starting to think that this problem is related to the characteristics of the CPU cores. nothing else comes to mind.

Is it possible to turn off Efficient cores just for this game?

Yes, I know that Ubisoft does not help anyone anymore, but it was worth a try. Of course I will let you know if there is any solution, but I have not found it yet. Today I even recorded a video. And by the way, there are also problems with watch dogs 2. I don’t know about the others, but I have flickering lighting and shadows in WD2. It's just impossible to play. I bought a new laptop and honestly - more trouble than good. Before that, I had a RTX 2060 max q with Core i5 10300H. And everything worked fine. Well, as far as the gear can offer in terms of its performance. There were no such problems at all. In the end, either Intel makes bad CPUs, or Nvidia makes bad GPUs. Honestly, I do not know.

I've heard that It's a well known issue on never Nvidia cards/drivers Nvidia just didn't bother to fix for 2 years. AMD cards don't have this issue. WD2 on my RX6600 works great.

This guy launched the game through DXVK[github.com] (basically Vulkan renderer) and shadows stopped flickering. Also some people are saying that fps cap might help.
UPDATE: some people said you need DXVK 1.3.3, later versions don't work for them.

It's either laptop related issue or Efficient cores related one. Those cores messed up CPUs compatibility with some programs and games.

Tried. Firstly, it didn’t work to launch the game even with a scripthooker, and secondly, I like the multiplayer in WD2, and this method only works bypassing the protection program and disables the multiplayer. If I just wanted to play the game, I might have downloaded the pirated version, but I liked the second part of watch dogs precisely because of the fun multiplayer. So....no solution(

some kind of degradation in my opinion began with technology. They tell you that they do it better and more productively, and then compatibility problems are discovered. Well, then why update the setup at all? it's just ridiculous ...
The question is the same - what to do then? If you use programs to correct the operation of the cores, then firstly I don’t really understand this and I’m afraid to seriously ruin something by damaging the laptop for the sake of one game, but on the other hand I want to play, because even without ray tracing the game looks good and in general a series of dogs I have always liked it.

Guys, try to disable E-cores just for this game using this Project Lasso method:

Use Process Lasso and disabling the

"windows Dymanic thread priority boosts" setting under the wo long exe.

It yelds the exact same results as disabling E-core... Without have to touch your bios or E-core

I was already thinking of rejoicing, I played the mission for half an hour in the location where you find the hologram of the person who was kidnapped by Kelly. Everything is smooth - I thought cool and really helped. It was worth going outside where there was traffic and getting into the car - it started again. In general, this did not help. Just a little, although I rather wishful thinking.
