FPS Issues using Nvidea preset

[UnableRogue]

Just wondering if anyone else is having FPS drops while using Nvideas Geforce optimized settings. In certain areas my 60 FPS jumps up and down like a yoyo causing noticable lag. I'm not sure if its my rig or Nvideas drivers or ETS2 itself causing this. I have no mods running either.

im having the same, didn't realize the connection but now that you mention it i'm almost certain that is what it is

Happens me too.. I even tried uninstalling GeForce experience but just the same

Nvidia GTX 9xx and GTX 10xx series perform badly in old games and old games uses only one core that should be over 3,0GHz, prefer 4,0GHz. Where you need over 40fps in trucking game?!
Fps players should play 3Dmark only...

Edit: sorry, too tired to reed properly. Get rid of your extra nvidia programs/features and put v-sync on that your fps don't exeed monitors refresh rate.

Iv a GTX1050Ti so I should keep GeForce Experience uninstalled then... I only play this game really

Wrong. I use gtx 9xx gpu, some of my friends too, and we can have pretty stable 60 fps withhigh settings(gtx 950, 960, 970, with various cpus, all over 3,2 ghz). Thats the first thing.
Secondly, i can't understand this fps fairy tale. You and others say " why do you need high fps, it's a trucking game". Yeah, thats true, but a lot of players have slow 60hz ips displays. Thanks to God i have stable 60, but due to the 60hz display, i must use vysnc to avoid tearing. And if vysnc is on, any fps below 50 seems pretty slow.
Tried the 30 fps cap ingame, via control panel and via nvidia inspector to investigate these "pro fps advices" from the steam topics, and i can prove, 30 fps with vsync on a 8ms ips display is UNPLAYABLE, like a slow-mo movie. Switching back to 60fps is like hyperspeed in space travelling.
And wahts the next "pro advice" here? Turn off vsync to avoid this issue? Yeah, yeah, and see the heavy tearing every time i turn with the truck while i listen the eee-eee whining of my burning gpu.

*Sorry for hard words, but as you said in another topic, you are tired to read these issues every day from another user. I can understand it. But others like me are tired too, because there is no solution for this badly optimized but genial game. What i can read every time: 1.turn off vysnc, 2.turn on vysnc, 3.your computer is a potato, 4. and next comes the best, the notebook user who can play with 20 fps, and thinks OP is crazy cause he isn't delighted with 50fps.

I don't have GTX 9xx, but as you can see there is lots of issues with them when GTX 7xx runs well and what is that unless bad driver or newer GPU just can't provide decent gaming with Dx9 games?!
V-sync is bad thing too, too many setups;different PC's with different windows with different displays. Try there help people...

[sikejsudjek2]

You could try vsync off in game and forcing adaptive vsync in nvidia inspector or 3d nvidia game options. That should in theory stop the fps dropping back to 30fps.
If you're playing ets2 in stereoscopic or vr you most definately do need a reasonable fps - a steady 60 fps would be great - but no one is getting this in cities that I know of.
What happens if you oc a processor to 5ghz ? Does that run it smoothly with a recent gpu ?

Lol very well put. Dont forget the usual instruction to check your drivers and ro remove and reinstall the whole thing. Imagine that advice in any other product you have paid for...

When I run the game in DirectX I seem to get higher FPS. You could try that.

Turned off V-Sync and also ran it with DirectX but they didn't help. In Australia the temps are hitting 40 degrees Celsius so I'm not going to attempt OCing my cpu. It says its running at 4300Mhz Its an AMD FX-8350 (Last time I buy AMD) and my graphics is a GTX 970 and I have 16GB RAM that's supposed to run at 2400Mhz but only runs at 1400. That's why I wont by AMD since it can't properly run faster ram.

The old AMD hardware is known to run quite hot and just doesn't perform as well as its intel counter parts now days. However don't think about boycotting AMD altogether the new AM4 line up is on its way and with Zen and Vega around the corner AMD will be performing either just as good as the competition if not better.
Btw RAM speed doesn't make a significant perfomance increase (at most you would only get a couple frames more/less which isn't going to be noticable)

I've FX-6350 vishera running 3,9GHz and uses one core 80-90% (turbo would rise 4,2GHz if heavy use, not needed), memory 2x4GB runs 2400MHz (g-skill trident X cl10) and RX480 4GB.
Hopefully you got 2x8GB memory (128bit), single 16GB runs only 64-bit.

I've only ever used AMD with all my PC's. I only just built my current PC a few months back and a few weeks ago I noticed the ram wasn't running full speed. After some research I found out that AMD CPU's can't handle ram speeds beyond 1333Mhz. If you do adjust the ram clock in the bios then a bottleneck happens in the CPU since it can't handle it. Can these new CPU's handle faster ram speeds? I would rather stick with AMD since that's all I know but I'm disappointed with my findings.

Yeah mate I have 2x8Gb sticks. I was trying to get 2x16GB sticks but they didn't have it. Ram is Corsair Vengeance

[play3r_93]

Yep they should be able to handle up over 3000 MHz, detailed specs aren't released yet but some things are known such as some of the I/O and the fact it will use DDR4 RAM. There was a comparision between the new AMD Zen vs i7 6900k and it slightly beat it at an AMD function. So that's a good sign but for the more mainstream quad-core version there has been no news yet but it should be similar to the Intel quad-cores.
