Triple Screen Low FPS FIX!

[GT3Mak]

I've seen a lot lately have trouble with triple screen!

This is one of many fixes but in the case someone has this problem.

Since the day of release I've been troubleshooting this and finally figured out my issue so I thought l'd share for others who may have the same problem.
I accidentally set up Nvidia surround to 4K resolution that has Refresh Rate capped at 60hz. My monitors are all 165hz and are identical.

When I switch it from 115201x2160 @ 60hz to 7680x1440 | get 165hz available in the drop down through my Nvidia surround when setting up.

This fixed all my triple screen issues with this game!

Hope this helps, l've seen many with this problem.

It seems it's crucial for the monitors to be outputting what they can handle when setting up surround.

Running triples too... Are you able to run the other tracks? I can only get Brands Hatch to work.

Lol, most people dont run triples at 4k so im sure this will help maybe 10 people

They all work. What is the hardware you’re running? What problems are you having specifically?

For sure, but I used a YouTube video for first time set up. It kept defaulting to it for some reason. Not sure if those 10 people you mentioned have the same issue.

I’ve seen people report with better hardware having the same issue.

Doesn’t hurt to check IMO

why would you even run 4k when you don't have the proper hardware for that. heck current gpus aren't really even powerful enough to run 4k triples.

if you're running nvidia surround that isn't real triple screen. triple screen is each monitor running off separate gpu viewport..

best to disable surround and settings up triples with the in-game settings.. obviously that uses more system resources because it's running each monitor independently.

I can run triples no problem too, it's like a slideshow but it's triples, no stretching of the side screens, side angles ok, looks great (until you start moving, then it's awful)
I'm only on an i5-9600k 3070ti, triple 24" AOC Gsync 1080p Nvidia surround mode (1080p cos I'm getting old and my eyes are going bad ok!)
Single player practice @ Brands Hatch.
With triple screens enabled (Ultra graphics preset) 16 to 20 fps, unplayable
With triple screens disabled and running on 1 monitor only (Ultra graphics preset) 80-90 fps
With triple screens enabled (Low graphics preset) 40 to 50 fps
With triple screens disabled and running on 1 monitor only Low graphics preset) 150 to 170 fps
Gsync enabled/disabled makes no difference
Full screen or borderless makes no difference either
I imagine I'll take a huge fps hit with any AI on the track :(

Don’t think it’ll work with 1080p I don’t think. Try the other way then turn up the graphics in game maybe?

Read the road map.... Literally show you when you launch the game... Not our fault you can't read.

Are you okay?

I'm not convinced the game engine is capable of decent performance for triple screens. I would love to be wrong but I just don't see it. It's absolutely miles behind all the other sims.
