game isnt properly optimised beeter off running it at 30hz

I'm noticing a trend lately with some of these topics. I see more people with AMD CPU's have issues than I do Intel. (both sides I've seen had issues, just that I see more AMD)

Its a known fact that AMD has had sub-par single threaded performance, and still do to this day. The underlying issue may be that the game wasn't coded with multi-core CPU's in mind, so that's where I'm suspecting the issues are coming from.

One thing you could try, in theory, is that when you start the game, go into the Task Manager and find the atrucks.exe (whatever it is called), right click, and set the affinity to any other core but Core 0. I don't know if it'll fully help, but its worth a shot. On a side note, you will need to do this every time you start the game.

ryzen changed the figures with and can compete with single threaded performance with intel.. All the kinks with the motherboard manafactures have to be worked out and thats the promblem as of right now.. Even if you have a earlier amd chip it wont matter
game only runs on so many threads and you can see how many its running in your game log..
Then if you want you can run the affanity and make it run on a paticular core or cores... perferably on on your your highest core cores 0 1 2.. you can go with your slower end cores to and it may help with your lag but it just drops frame rates...
Note you can go into the nvidia control panel and you can select threaded optimization to.. Auto is the default setting .
then theres "ON" and "OFF"...
I would turn it off and run the game and try the affinity and run it on a core or cores that you want.

above suggestion worked really well for me.

Me too !! I was looking at a slide show. Now it smokes. Thankyou !!

On the contrary, most of topics are laptops and 99.9% laptops have intel CPU and worst laptops have intel "GPU".
Other than laptop topics are mostly nvidia GTX9xx and GTX10xx series, those can't handle well older games with Dx9 and people that pay 400-800€ just from GPU expect to get more than 200-400 fps.

just curios wich one helped?

the nvidia threaded oprimization?

[donamy]

I unchecked 0 core in the affinity, leaving 1 2 3 cores checked. I didn't try anything else because it worked right away. I have an i5 6500.

I run a Skylake build, 6700k, 4.2 GHz and a GTX1070. I haven't messed with the affinity in task manager, but the game runs just as I expect it would before 1.6, and after 1.6 came into public beta. The lowest my FPS usually ever got to was about 45 FPS, and that's in cities. That's plenty playable in my book since I'm not into that 'PC MASTAH RACE BRUH' bull. Oh, and in my liimited testing, hyper-threading on/off made absolutely no difference in pretty much all the games I play, so I just leave it on.

As for laptops, I do see those kinds of topics too, but not quite as many sometimes. But everyone usually knows (though not always the case) that the Intel Graphics Chips are definitely anything but strong. They get the job done for light gaming perhaps, or general use computing, but that's about all they're really made for.

thanks guys will try these

Even the Ryzen cpu core are strong as Intel Haswell still better off getting skylake or Kabylake cpu with 1060 or higher gpu. Bought i7 6700k and use the gtx 1070 from old machine that broke down. I play at 4K in cabin view at 200% scaling get 60 fps 90% of the time, At 300% scaling get 50-55 fps and 40 games in Vegas that is plenty sufficient for game don't need fast reflexes. Always trade off with visual qaulity and frames per second.

Even Ryzen CPU's fail against a few things. They are still competent CPU's though, but Intel still has them beat on single-threaded performance. Multi-thread though, that is where AMD does have Intel beat.

Easy fix - turn off V-Sync, turn down antialiasing, and turn down shadows and reflections if the first two don't fix it enough for you. But honestly just turning off v-sync did it for me. Everything else on ultra, except resolution size at 300% instead of 400%.

I am running an FX6300 as well with a GTX1060. I had issues with fps and lag with ATS and ETS2 since the beginning of playing these games. What I did in nvidia control panel was turn off threaded optimisation, turn on vsync and triple buffering. Be sure to turn off in game vsync, and run the game in opengl. Do it for both games if you have both. With those settings both games run better than they ever have for me. I get a solid 60 FPS in both games with some drops to the 40's range in cities which is playable. Try that and see if it helps, it helped me greatly!

1) bad procesor
2) bad graph. card ...
