Performance issues

[bearzerk]

Hey all.

Revisting this game since I heard about some content updates, and I'm having a lot of performance issues. Running oc'd sli 1080s, 4790k oc'd to 4.4, 16 gigs of ram on hero maximus vii with an ssd and I get an extremely micro stuttery 60 fps. Whether highest or lowest settings, fps doesn't seem to change much.


I verified integrity of game cache, did a clean install of drivers.

My buddy said he had the same issue but setting a cap of 120 fps fixed it for him. PC performance preference set to max. Forced vsync through nVidia control panel instead of game... Did a couple of other setting changes I saw helped other people, but no luck for me.

Is SLI just broken and doesn't work period?

Thanks for the help.

the state of the game post "We are aware of a few performance issues on PC that are related to full screen crashed and CPU usage." so tell my your cpu usage if its at 90%+ just gotta wait untill they fix it.

Try turning down the OC on your GPU and CPU.

I overclocked after I had the issue.

Have you tried disabling SLI?

[bearzerk]

Have not. I'm assuming the problem is with SLI, but that's before I knew Ubi admitted there's performance issues they're aware of.

[bearzerk]

Disabled SLI, and it's definetely microstuttering that was giving me so many issues. Yeah, this works, but I'd prefer an actual fix vs workaround. Heard SLI was working, but apparently not.

Good. Im glad it resolved the issue. Too bad you can't take advantage of both 1080's tho.

For as long as it has been around, SLI mode still has a bit of "hit or miss" to it. I have seen players complain of having issues when running a game in SLI while others have no issue. However, it seems like this issue is more frequent in games with crappy port overs from console like the COD titles etc. But, yeah.....The Division is far from being graphically optimized.

[bearzerk]

Aye. Witcher 3 was giving me a ton of issues til I disabled a single AA graphics setting. Disabling that doubled my frames whereas this game doesn't appear to have a fix at all.

[wutMETA]

mobo strong enough? that's my issue with games like arma 3 but this game seems to run fine with a single 1060. +100 fps in most cases

[bearzerk]

When I ran sli 970s I had no issue. Pretty sure The Division is just broken right now.

Maybe it is your CPU and chipset. I can do max settings 60 FPS at 4K with my 5930K and GTX 1080 SLI gaming machine at stock speeds.

This game doesn't even have a working SLI profile. I call BS on that.

I'm running 980 SLI and the usage on GPU2 has never exceeded 4% .. It was 0% before running different SLI bits.

3770K remains at 43-73% usage - so It's not the CPU bottle-necking either.

I can barely maintain 60fps with a profile that has everything shut off and or at minimal settings at 1440p.

Well it isn't a perfect 60 FPS but it does pretty well. Here is a video clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcDn7mzDMDw (still uploading, 1.5 hours to upload and then who knows how much processing time.)

Also for SLI I set it to Force Alternate Frame Rendering 1. The graphics cards are pegged in the low 90's pretty much the entire time I watched the info on the screen. However I left it up for pretty much the entire time except for the mini map so you can see how it does.

Ok the video is up SpaceWeezle. 4K Ultra Detail.
