Framerate issues

[leRAF's]

The game is really excellent, my only complain is that I have some some huge framerate drop from time to time. They are very noticeable, even with G-Sync enabled. I also tried the lower graphics settings, it helps but the dropped frames are still there.
I'm curious if other people are experiencing this issue, and hope it will be resolved in the future.

Are there any particular areas that you notice framerate drops? The more information we can get the better! Thanks!

[leRAF's]

The drops happened on every tracks I tried (10-20 drop per race).
For example, the track that was available in the demo (haapajarvi) is very prone to these drops. Removing the crowd completely seems to be the setting with the most impact.

I’m having the same problems. RTX 2060, i7 4770. Reasonable frame rates but then a very noticeable stutter. Happens with: vsync; uncapped framrates; capped at 144, 72 via in game settings. Capping at 72 fps via rtss seems to alleviate the stutter.

I have a suspicion it might be something to do with RTX cards.

I didn't buy on Steam, but same here on a Ryzen 5 3600 and GeForce 1660 Ti so it's not just RTX cards. The entire install for this game could fit in my VRAM twice over so it's curious to see frame drops. They are not constant, but seem to occur when large amounts of assets enter the draw distance. I set can graphics options to the lowest settings and still have the FPS drops.

I've been having some issues with framerate too, was great for the first couple of hours I was playing it but after doing free-roam in Finland for awhile to get all the collectables I was dropping from 144 to 30~40 randomly and was having some bad stuttering towards the end, took forever to quit to the main menu too. All settings on Ultra, Ryzen 7, and a pair of 1080 GTX in Sli. I think it's got a memory leak somewhere, taskmanager was showing a pretty sizable chunk of memory being used

Also noticing some fps drops, especially in areas with many trees.

Low-Mid range system for me. I'm at 1080p 60Hz.
FPS is pretty solid at 60 but drops to 45 in forested areas and vineyards.
Hopefully it can be optimised, because the game is awesome.

Yes im running 1440p/144hz and most tracks there are dips down a 30-40 frames but luckily not enough to impact the gameplay at all. i havent messed about too much with the settings but an Intel i7-7700 - 1080TI - 32GB combo I would have thought was more than enough to handle the game at 1440p. Definitely needs some tweaking. Game is absolutel fantastic though!

Fps drops when its foggy or snowing.

I had the game installed on portable hard drive and it was unplayable.
No issue with my portable either.. tested many games afterwards, so no idea why.
Installing on local hard drive fixed the problem.

I'm noticing some stutter myself but I'm on a 1080 Ti. My frames stay between 72 - 97 (Freesync 3440x1440 21:9) at max settings. Most of the time I'm at the highest I've locked them to and I still notice some stuttering despite the FPS staying pretty much there as well.

Im getting the same occasional stutter too with a i7 8700k and 2080ti

Reported this in bugs but yea, I'll get a micro stutter randomly during my rallies. i-7 6700k 32 gb ram 1080 ftw2

[Pezzer]

low fps drops here as well i7-4790 / 16GB / 980ti - would seem to point to an issue with NVidia cards ?

Brilliant game btw

[Raigavin]

Is this issue only when you have GSync or FreeSync?

I am currently on i5-4440/GTX 1060 and its butter smooth with Vsync, 60FPS RTSS, 1920x1080, Win10 64.

Edit 1: I loaded up haapajarvi, Fog and it tanks FPS like crazy. Let me spend more time on what's causing a lot of GPU overhead from settings.

First one seems to be Shadow Resolution (setting it to Medium seems to help)
