Tip for more FPS on good PC's

[Viper 🍀]

Well, i have RTX 4070 and i5 12500H and it was so frustrating to play with 40-70FPS
I spent 50h playing FS25 and looking for all solutions to increase FPS, because in FS22 I had them 150 easily each on maximum settings, in FS25 on medium settings, FPS were around 50-60, CPU usage 20% and GPU usage 50-60%. I waited for an update deluding myself that Giants would do something, but not much has changed. I know some people know this, but I only discovered it now.
When I changed what I write about below FPS increased from 60 to 170 with practically no change in the game visually (I am a complete layman in these matters, maybe I can help at least one person)

You have to change the game settings:
FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 - Quality/Balance
FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 frame generation - ON.
AND I set the DRS frame limit to 240, but I don't think that changes much acct.

Can confirm this works, and it increases the quality for me massively. LOD distance issues however remain, thanks GIANTS!

FidelityFX makes the game look worse. And you notice some glitches with frame gen on. I am using dlss quality 3440x1440.

I have a 4070 Super, run this at 2560 x 1440 @ 60fps on Ultra. It's absolutely rock solid without having to resort to loss of quality.

Yeah,
But 60 FPS on a 144Hz Display where you 90% play games at 144Hz is like playing a slideshow. So for you maybe rock solid is for others quite bad.

If 60fps is a slideshow then I'll blame my old age and slow eyes. Personally I'll rest on close to 40 years of gaming and politely say 'nah. that' ain't even remotely true'.

I use a 32", 180hz curved screen. 60fps is perfect on it and my GPU is humming sweet - as I said, rock soild. So, feel free to flog your GPU to death and pretend to yourself you need 144 for a 'better image'. meh.

i get 40-60 on ultra 2k with no upscaling or anything on my old 6700k and 2080ti....seems like my old "work horse" isnzt as bad as i thought

Never talked about better image. Its smoother camera move, because of the higher refresh rate. And yes. It is in fact based on scientific evidence, that every person has other capacities to see if a image is moving more smooth or not. Some find 30FPS smooth some find 120fps laggy. Blame the eyes, not me.

So thats not even pretending to have a smoother visual. It is smoother. I had for years only 60hz. Then i bought Vision3D 2 because i wanted to play my games in 3D, that need 144hz for a good picture to play in real 3D. So i bought a 144hz display. And why not use the hz in normal gameplay when its there. And i always said "nah, no difference possible". Well turned out i talked without even trying, and was 100% false in the "statement i cannot see the difference", because i could, even being biased towards "nah, not possible"

Btw i am also a older gamer generation and my eyes are not the best anymore.

idk if it relates to this theme but if you look at average CPU usage, it is quite low (15-20%) but if you use MSI afterburner and look at usage of every logical processors individually, you'll see that one processor is loaded at 75%+ (while others are at 5-20%) and it increases when AI workers are active etc.

and also one more thing: when you work with grass (especially when tedding or windrowing with wide tools) it hits the processor quite hard and my fps drops from stable 60 down to 45-50. it is quite sad, because my GPU (RTX 3050 8gb) is not struggling when my i5-10400f is having a hard time. maybe after some time GIANTS will make it more optimized, or distribute the CPU load on more than one logical processor (I really hope they will)

[kubanskiloewe]

i change nothing, i like it how it is.

[Leon]

I just changed to Medium settings, on an RTX3070, 5800X3D. 144fps @ 1440p. Framegen actually hurt my performance a lot in this game, so native 1440p.

Yeah, I have to agree. While my FPS isn't rock solid at 60, it's fairly steady. My monitor is 32" curved, 1440p, and 240 Hz. It has no issues running games are different FPS other than native.

I tried those settings previously and while it basically doubled my FPS, fidelity was terrible. You said there was particularly no change visually, however, from my experience, detail on vehicles became very blurry a short distance away. Even just viewing in the shop, zoom out and text/decals can no longer be read.

[kubanskiloewe]

how can people think there could be double the fps without any impact or negativity.
I dont need 60fps even my RTX4090 pull 60fps out @ 3440x1440 (all max/ultra and 200% DLSS).
The energy consumption is for these thousands of hours to high,imo.
At 60fps she needs over 360watt; so i reduced to 30fps with 130-180watt and its ok for me.

[Brixen]

My 4070 uses about 110Watts of energy with mostly maxed out quality settings @ 3440x1440 with constant 60fps

I use DLAA instead of DLSS Quality Mode which needs about 90-100Watts

[kubanskiloewe]

no, with DLAA and same settings my card uses around 260-280 watts and runs at 45-50% and 45-50°C.

with DLSS (which is slightly worse in quality than DLAA) i save a lot of energy but its because i set this "DRS" to off with DLSS and i barely can see a difference in quality. with DRS at ultra it needs the same power as DLAA.

when i use DRS at Ultra too and constant 60fps my card goes to around 90-95% and 60°C with over 400watts. But yes than i see a quality difference ;-)
