Stutters & FPS issues on quality pc

[† ItsJustStuffYT †]

System specs:
GPU: 3080 FTW3
CPU: I9 10850k
Ram: 32GB 3400MGhz
Game installed on NVME M.2

I am constantly getting frame drops to less than 60 fps. Also experiencing game breaking stutters that ruin PVP fights. I have used DDU to reinstall my graphics drivers, but that did not fix the issue.
I have tried turning DLSS to both Quality, and ultra performance neither of which do much to my performance. most settings are as low as they can go without making the game look like a playstation 2 game...

game is unoptimized. Try setting the vram usage to 70% as that can help a bit with fluctuating fps but overall crytek needs to release an optimization patch.

This update was supposed to be the performance enhancing update lol
They arent going to do anything about it..
It just bothers me that I have friends with lower end PCs whom are running the game better than I can. Personally, if I am going to be forced to play with stutters & less than 60 frames, I say scrap this whole update and revert to pre-engine upgrade cus this is just.. S**t

Guess i just try to find something else to play..

try to set shadows to mid/low and like @KungThulhu said turn the Vram max to 70/80% that helped me a lot. I have 120-144 FPS on 2k with a 3080ti and 12700k

Already done, still having performance issues.. I alreadt had the VRAM capped to 80% I will try 70% and see if its any better. But all settings are low or medium

Yeah the game used to be limited by the CPU mostly. with the move to direct x 12 the game could look better AND run better. Instead it runs worse and we need DLSS to even make it playable.

But then they use a three year old version of DLSS that has ghosting and generally isn't fit for a fast shooter.

I have asked them per support ticket, mail, on reddit, on instagram and on youtube why they use this version but they wont respond. Updating DLSS is literally just replacing a file. They refuse to tell me why they use this old version and why they don't use newer versions that look AND perform way better. It triggers me so much knowing the game could look so much better for literally free and its only their incompetence of replacing a single file that stops us from having a better experience.

I have more than 2500 hours just on pc and probably equally as much on console.. its just seems as if this entire update benefited console players more than it did anything for pc players. like "want guaranteed 60 fps? play it on console."
yea.. no thanks.
Guess im going back to Delta Force!

Along the lines of what was said above, if the GPU memory usage in the graphic settings is set to 90% (maybe even 80 on some systems) it can cause hitching if engine calls for too much data transfer and GPU memory is already high. For me 70 or 80 doesn't seem to make much difference but 90 has an apparent negative impact.

I also run everything at very high across the board at 1440p with DLSS to Quality and frames capped at 120 (in game). If you have unlimited frames and v-sync that could also be a cause a frame drops / hitches if the FPS isjumping around too much and hitting the v-sync limit.

As an FYI, I have Intel i7 9700K with 32GB DDR4, Gigabyte 3080 GTX with 12GB and Hunt on a NVME M.2. Overall performance is > 100 FPS and haven't had any stutters with the above settings. Overall FPS is lower than the previous Hunt version but visuals are also a lot better especially render distances.

Also wasn't too impressed with performance after the update, so I also uninstalled Hunt completely include the user info that was left over in the game folder and reinstalled. Subjectively seemed to help smoothness but had no effective on the FPS. There is also a Hunt specific nVidia driver that came out, so if you update to the latest that could also help. Can't hurt most likely.

Only mentioning this as it is relevant to performance, I am also regularly streaming this game, However I experience the stutters even while not streaming.
thanks for the tip ill give it a shot.

Meanwhile I'm using a 7700k and RTX 3060 12GB, only 16GB of RAM on 3600Mhz. I get 100FPS at 1440p. But the game crashes when opening the map at least a couple of times a a day.

I love this game so much but its kinda unplayable with the graphics constantly freezing my computer and the frames dropping so low, I have a 4060ti with 16gb ddr5 ram and i installed this on a 1tb ssd is there a way I can fix this or do I just have to wait for them to release optimization patch
