DOOM: The Dark Ages

DOOM: The Dark Ages

View Stats:
Game runs at half GPU usage unless in Windowed mode
Windowed mode 1440p = 110FPS with FSR Quality
Borderless window or fullscreen drops to 50-60fps, and GPU clocks drop to 1300MHz.

WTF kind of lack of QA is this?

But human eye can only see only see around 60 frames a second? Both eyes gives you 120 frames a second?

It has nothing to do with QA, it has everything to do with your settings/configuration. Plenty of people are getting more than 60 fps in borderless window and fullscreen. You just need to figure out what you have set wrong to fix it.

What is your desktop resolution?

1440p. Game doesn't utilize GPU unless it in windowed mode.

Plenty of people are having issues, and they've acknowledged that they clearly didn't test on AMD CPU/Nvidia GPU systems.

Maybe you need to post hardware if the case is not that FG has been enabled with FSR.

I have a AMD CPU/Nvidia GPU system (7950x3d+4090) and am getting max frames that my monitor can handle with g-sync turned on. So not sure what you're referring to.
Yeah, I run an AMD 7900X3D and a 4080 and I've had no issues with performance/graphics either, so it's not an issue of "not QAing on AMD/Nvidia configurations" whatever is causing your issues.

5900X
7800XT
64GB DDR4 3600

Game should work, but it doesn't.

Somehow CPU bottlenecked perhaps settings wise ingame. MIght have to increase a few GPU demanding settings to see if your GPU% go higher.
Kinda sounds like Windows' full screen optimization thing that it does, of making things run worse in full screen. I'm not joking. Did you try toggling that setting?

Failing that, do you have multiple overlays running?

What part of "the game only works in windowed mode" did you not understand? CPU bottleneck doesn't change based on window type.

I can also get the game to work properly if I disable all additional displays, but then that point to a problem with the game as well.

Sounds like you solved your issue already before even posting.
