is it normal to be having about 70-90 fps on a 3080 at 1440p? on max

[Desolate Eden]

feels a bit low and the game seems to chug a bit, a lot more than i expected, is this normal or is there anything i can do?

Just all the standard optimization stuff. Change cache in nivida driver setting to 10gb or 100gb, make sure processing is set to background services (in windows). turn off ALL power saving BS, etc, etc.

There's videos on how to properly optimize for games, sometimes specific games.

My 3060 runs the game at 120 fps @1440, though I throttle it to 77 to keep the GPU fans from exploding.

Also help to understand that your graphics card is just part of the equation. If it's not paired with other hardware that support it you don't get the full effect.

A lot of people complain about high end hardware. Mostly because it's not setup the best.

Something is up with your system.. I have 64GB, DDR 4200 OC'd. 12900k and MSI 3080RTX and I get 100 FPS 98% of the time.. locked at 100HZ v-sync.. Settings maxed out and also not using DLSS @3440x1440p.

Check to make sure the page file is set correctly, should be at least 2 x your ram or minimum 16GB.. works for most games.

Check that you have the chipset drivers installed for your MB.

Update and clean install nvidia drivers.

Only other things I can think of.. are incorrect memory timings. and cheap motherboard or inefficient PSU.

I'm running a 3080 with a 5900X and I limited my FPS to 160 because my 1440P monitor is 165Hz. I get a consistent 160FPS with a few dips into the 150's. Ultra settings. The only time the FPS take a dump is when the game first loads up. Then it drops to 10FPS for a second.

The latest nvidia drivers run like ♥♥♥♥ on my setup, I downgraded back to 512.15 and smooth/fast. Yeah I know it makes no sense, but sometimes this happens...

Are you running on all max settings? Or is there anything you lowered or adjusted or is it literally all the highest it can go?

i have a corsair gold rated 850 watts psu and a asus rog strix mobo

edit: i also dont suffer low fps in any other game i played, just this one so im not sure its my hardware cause otherwise i would have noticed bad performance elsewhere too

Nobody needs more than 60 fps for a fluent gameplay. Everything above is not recognizable by the human eye and does nothing else than wearing out your hardware and increasing your electricity bill. That's why most games have a frame limiter option...
But do however you like 🤪😎👍

the frame limiter is there so that you dont run over your refresh rate and overuse your hardware without any gains, there is very visible difference between 60 and 120, maybe not between 60 and 70, you're likely speaking from the perspective of someone who hasn't experienced the difference.

No, having 70-90 fps on a 3080 at 1440p is definitely not normal.

I also have a RTX 3080 and run NMS at 1440p. After one of the latest patches I encountered a massive FPS decrease to also an average of 70-90 fps. Before it was 120-160 fps depending on the location (every setting on Ultra, DLSS enabled).

Hello Games messed something up with one of the latest patches.

Try changing nivida drivers back to an older version. 512.59 for me is really weird, FPS is about 20% lower and there's hitching if I fly over terrain too fast, as well as a couple other things that seem off.

I'm still on 512.15. The only thing that changed on my PC since the framerates were OK is NMS due to the software updates..
