FIXED MY LOW FPS

[sulde70]

i have use a MSI gs63vr 6rf stealth pro gaming laptop
gtx 1060
intel 6th gen core i7-6700hq
6GB GDDR5
16g ram

i was having the hardest time with far cry 5. i did everything under the sun to try and get the fps up. you name, it i did it. i even went as far as going to a PC guru/yoda guy who took it apart and cleaned it piece by piece and put a whole new OS on it. but that still didnt work. no matter what settings i changed or what drivers i updated nothing changed and i was still at around 20-15 FPS
i really wanted to play this damn game. so i didnt give up. finally i was just messing around in the in-game setting like i had done 100 times before and i decied to disable the frame rate lock which is set at 60 . this allowed me to choose the frame rate that the comptuer went to and so i set it to like 90 and started the game for the hundreth time, but this time almost like god himself came down and touched my pc. the framerate shot up to 60+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. i have no idea why or how this worked but if you have tried everything and anyhting. i suggest you try one more thing. or i may just be really stupid for not trying it the first day i saw the lag but.... im a happy camper now. im posting this in hopes i can help somone with the same problem that i ran into, and hopfully stop them before they pay some guy with to look at your motherboard.

on the main menu of far cry 5 go to options then hit video. then hit the far left symbol that looks like three little gears and youll see the option for frame rate lock. make sure it says "on" and turn the FPS up. mine is set at 90. maybe that will work for you!

Here's some tips that could also help smooth out your FPS.

My game runs on all ULTRA and HIGH settings with HD TEXTURES turned on. Averaging about 57-100 FPS!!! (Was 30-45 FPS).

SPECS:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 Octa-Core 3.7GHz
GPU: GTX 1060 6GB DDR5
RAM: 16GB


I fixed My lags, stutters and low FPS fixed quite easily.

1.) I changed my system to "High Performance" in the "Power Plan".
2.) I turned off Framerate Lock in Far Cry 5 settings.
3.) I changed My graphics card options from Quality to Performance. (Added TAA aliasing in-game)

Also in Nvidia Control Center (Or in AMD center whoever has AMD cards) make sure to change Far Cry 5.exe "Power Management" setting to "Prefer High Performance".

Yes! This fixed my problem.

I have an Asus G75VW with a GTX660M. It was nice eight years ago, but it limps through most newer games.

I played for 5 hours at 10-20 FPS. Sucky but playable (I have low expectations so expectations met), then something happened and the fps went down to 2. unplayable

I made sure everything was low on the video settings (it already was), I switched to a lower resolution from 1920 to the next one down, and checked the integrity of the files through Steam, but still no change.

After a short google search this came up. Moved my frame rate up to 90, now I'm back to 10-20. Kudos to you.
