Performance on 4070 Ti Super

[Nabeula]

I'm having frame drops with a 4070 Ti Super, Supreme 1440p (textures High) DLSS Quality. Normally I can run at 110fps or so in the Vatican, but I need to move DLSS to Balance for avoiding the drops. In the jungle, even DLSS will give me stuttering at a 2-3 seconds interval.

Is this a CPU issue? Or is 16GB of VRAM not enough?

There's going to be a stark difference in certain cases running a non-X CPU as apposed to a X CPU variant as the X variant is going to be hitting higher boost clocks raising the frame rate. I just ran mangohud to see what's going on on my end with the same GPU. I'm hitting very close to 5.5Ghz across all cores. Your CPU utilization should be good as your thread count is enough. You're boost frequencies are partially why. Also the game is allocating around north of 11GB of system RAM. On my side I'm running a 32GB 6000 CL30 speed RAM kit with tight timings by default with EXPO.

If you are running a lot of hardware vendor utilities like Asus Armory Crate use Revo Uninstaller to get rid of all of that stuff.

Also this game while it does have generally good graphics, for extra ray tracing I found it overall inferior to run the game maxed out, it simply is not that great of a looking game to warrant wanting to run all that stuff, it's like most titles these days for instance is suffers from some of the same issues as Shadow Of The Tomb Raider from way back when.

Turn off all the extra ray tracing settings, set the overall quality on high and then go crank the textures to max as your GPU is designed for that.

Indian Jones And The Great Circle is a good looking game, yet in terms of graphic fidelity it's too inferior to want to have all of the latest technologies enabled and maxed out, my system does it and runs well but I still dialed things back, #1 the games overall image tends to be blurry like most games these days. I want my frame rate as high as possibly while looking the same. While playing the game it's going to be very hard to notice all the extra ray tracing enabled when you're too engrossed in the campaign.

Maybe what I said helps?

Upgrade to a better RAM kit (32GB) and move to an X variant CPU, preferably a 16 thread X3D variant if you can finagle it, as that wopping amount of cache definitely helps as well as the extra thread headroom. Right now I'm just fine with a 7700X but the 7800X3D is going to clean it's clock, even more so the 9800X3D. I'm holding out another generation possibly to get an X3D chip, I want a better generational IPC uplift for general desktop usage before I pay premium for X3D. One of the reasons I never got the 5800X3D or 5700X3D and opted for AM5 instead is cause I knew a 7700X on AM5 was going to curb stomp either of those CPU's for overall usage, especially with a decent RAM kit.

Thank you. I'm waiting for my 9800x3D order (placed Nov 8th) to be delivered but since I live in an inferior country according to AMD (EU based) then I'll have to wait.

Getting that processor is definitely good. Sorry I seemingly overlooked the VRAM part.
16GB should hold well for a notable amount of time. NVIDIA has their heads in their asses concerning product segmentation and VRAM amounts.

It's all good! 😊

It's the vram nothing to do with the CPU

I have a 7950X3D & same thing happens

The devs haven't configured VRAM pools properly in the game for anything below 24GB

Hence why it's running well on my 7900XTX

Ran like ♥♥♥♥ on my 4080 Super 16GB

Guess that is what happens when you just make a game for a 4090 24GB

Tried shafting AMD also with no FSR on launch but XTX has enough raster power to run it close to 100 fps

I think we will get no game anymore which will runs without framerate issues or stutters. I gave up these hopes.

[Nabeula]

At 1440p it still doesn't run well with a 4070 Ti Super, even with DLSS Balanced enabled. It's sad.

[Molesworth.Houghton]

I will not hope you've bought a Ryzen 9800X3D just for this sad game. The games these days don't deserve that we have permanently to upgrade our system just to test their lazy products.
