halved my indiana jones performance.

[BluD]

im new to LS, not sure what im doing wrong. base fps is around 40-60fps but when i enable the new 3.0 FG my performance goes to 20-30. my only guess is this software eats up too much vram on my 3080ti. any ideas?

First, you need to lock the framerate of the game. LS doesn't work with variable frames, so lock it to 30 or any other target, depending on your monitor refresh rate and your desired final framerate.
Second, turn OFF Vsync in-game and use the Vsync option in LS, for better performance and to lower input lag a bit.

And yes, LS does need a fair amount of GPU power, so if you are already hitting 99% GPU use before activating LS, then LS has no room to function.

If you already use MSI Afterburner or any other software to monitor your GPU use, you can use that to check how much headroom you have for LS.

It is not free performance and it doesn't work well with GPU demanding games. especially UE5 games.

Don't use external frame lock with IJ:TGC. Trying to lock the frame rate externally defaults to 30fps. Use the option in the game menu.

It basically works well with any games, all you need is to find the correct framecap, resolution and game settings that work well on that particular system for that particular game.

I don't know about you, but if you can't maintain 60 FPS, I don't recommend using this, the image quality is just too bad.

I always recommend to at least try it, people can then decide for themselves if they find the quality acceptable or not, it's a matter of personal taste after all. A low input fps (30-35) isn't bad per se.

did you cap the fps with riva tuner ? it not works if you cap the fps in game .

i will have to try it. if i have a 165hz display what should i set the cap to?

I assume your game's settings must be quite high if you are getting 40-60 fps on a 3080Ti.
Maybe consider lowering some settings for a locked 55 fps and get 110 fps with LS?
You could also try 33/66 if you can stand some visual glitches and the extra input lag.

To be fair I don't know if 33/66 would have the right framepacing. 165Hz is a little bit tricky compared to 144 or 120Hz.

yeah so its mostly because i wanted to try medium path tracing. the game runs quite well @ 3440x1440p without it.

Even with bunch of game it halve the performance even if the GPu is far from fully used.

For example? How much GPU are you using before LS?

Tried for games that even use 50% of the gpu. Tried different variables and it just doesn't improve anything other than adding input delay and artifacts.

You complained about that in several posts, yet you didn't even post your system specs once, even when you were asked. Do you just wanna complain or do you wanna get help?

lock your game at 45fps, use DLSS ingame and enable lossless framegen x2 or x3 (the best for you) and send feedback
