DARK SOULS™ III

DARK SOULS™ III

For Nvidia 920m video card owners, how well Dark Souls 3 running?
How much minimum fps do you have? For example in the fight with the Abyss Watchers. I checked the FPS, when I enter the fight and look trough the whole room, I have 17-18 fps. Sometimes I have 40 in parts of the game, sometimes I have 22-25, but in that fight, it's a bit irritatingly low. (well, if I look back to where I came, the fps ~30, but it gets slow during the fight)

I have tried a lot of drivers, I didn't get much improvement. I always checked the corridor's entrance to Blacksmith André. In that entrance, there's one "point", when you get also 17-18 fps. But before and after a few steps, the fps is good again.

What fps do you have in that part of the game with your 920m video cards? If you have better fps, please tell me your driver version and settings you have used.

Place a summon sign near the entrance of the Abyss Watchers room to measure the fps :)

I have checked the task manager, CPU usage is between 30-70%, memory usage approx. 3gb of 8gb, so I think the problem is with the video card or with the settings and/or driver. Based on Nvidia Inspector, the GPU load is 99-100%, and the heat goes until 66°C.

My notebook spec is this:
Windows 10, newest updates
Intel Core i5-5200U 2.2Ghz (turbo frequency 2.7Ghz)
8gb ram
Nvidia Geforce 920m 4gb vram
driver version 378.49
(Already checked drivers, each of them worked for different people according to forums:
314.22 - no win10 version
365.10 - DS3 won't start
358.87 - DS3 won't start
355.82 - DS3 won't start
364.51 - DS3 won't start
378.49 - works, not seemed to be faster
368.22 - works, not seemed to be faster
353.62 - DS3 won't start
364.96 - DS3 won't start
361.75 - DS3 won't start
364.91 - couldn't find in official sites, but I read that
369.09 - Win10 installes that defaultly, works, not seemed to be faster
I have read tons of settings in nvidia control panel, removing GameOverlayRenderer.dll and GameOverlayRenderer64.dll, etc., but the speed seems to be the same.

Any findings or idea, 920m users?

but in both of those* maps i've told to you, my fps dropped really hard
Will you do that FPS measurement? I would be happy
TL;DR:

It will run if you go for a crappy resolution and do not expect many fps.

EDIT: What you have is what you get, the 920m is a crappy card and there is nothing, that will magically boost your fps.

Just the game is badly optimized, since the average is always more than 30fps. If it would be possible, I would join to FromSoftware, and check the source code myself.
