Game runs poorly despite decient PC
Hi, i've been experiencing lately some performance issiues with the game. I'm running on I9-13980HX with RTX 4080 and 32GB of DDR5 RAM displaying in 2K resolution, but still game runs in 30FPS, which is miserable. Game uses only like 5% of CPU, 30% GPU and 10% RAM. And it's not like im having some big cities, I started new map recently.

Is it possible to grand the game more PC recources?

Make sure your game is running on your dedicated RTX 4080 GPU and not on integrated GPU
It's so amazing how, no matter what game it is, so many more people having performance problems are sporting conspicuous-consumption-class rigs than near- or sub-minimums, and the people with low-end midrange gear are so close to always doing just fine.

Yeah when it comes down to raw computing of basic graphics elements we didnt progress much over last decade.
All the numbers going bigger with new cars go into special tech like lightning, that a game needs to use to benefit...



That said 30 fps is way too low. Id check if the correct gpu is used, make sure it is not running at low power setting, check if there is no overlay software, video capture, peripherals app/hub, antivirus or other kind of crap that wants to hook/inject itself into the game - usually when those fail the framerate tanks like that.
Could also be an issue with the drivers (both on GPU and OS side) so trying some compatibility modes or clean reinstalling the drives can help.

Oh and definitely do try steam file integrity check, even if game was installed recently.
I run some steam games on an ancient machine and i never needed to verify, but on modern PCs, stuff can just brake like that.


ps: there is a depracted fullscreen mode that you can enable through cfg edit, as a last resort. Its depracted because its buggy but for few people it makes game run better.

There is something wrong with your RAM if it is only using 10%. The memory manager might be generating a page file which can really bog things down.

10% is still 3gb
pagefiling would show it self by stutering every time you move the camera a distance when stuff is loaded back in. i would think

another thing to check is cooling. took me months to even notice my cooling pump had stopped working. computer just throttled. was not until a very hot day where it resulted in sudden shuttdowns. prob not the case but cost nothing to check temps
That's because you're trying to build socialism using a high-end capitalist tool. Get yourself an Elbrus or something.

Now seriously: check if the game uses the dedicated GPU, check your power profiles, check thermals and see https://www.sovietrepublic.net/faq if anything there applies to you.
Probably not related to the poster's issue, but I thought I would share my experience with bad performance.

I originally played the demo and it was fine in terms of performance. I liked it enough to buy the full game and then I noticed quite a significant stutter when panning the screen, despite a stable fps. After some research I found that running it in full screen (disabled in the control panel of the full game version) by pressing Alt-Enter, made the game run smooth again.

However, running the game in full screen makes it prone to crashing if Alt-Tabbing to another program. I then disabled the game's v-sync option and forced v-sync on through Nvidia's control panel. Now the game is totally smooth again without setting it to full screen.
My realtime virus scanner slows the game down immensely. To load a map takes 8 or 10 minutes. So turn off wifi and turn off the virus scanner. Afterwards it takes 20 seconds to load a map.
LOL
