GTX 1080 and fps issues on fortnite?

[Nightz]

I play everything high but post processing and shadows which are Off and i get like 150 - 200fps in the air and that but when i land it goes to like 120-180 ish but some places like tilted and looking far distances can get me down to 50 - 80fps. Is there a issue with fortnite after the last patch i read some things up idk though? Any help apprieciated

My system:
I7 7700K
8GB Corsair vengence at 2400mhz
Asus strix GTX 1080 A8G 8gb vram
EVGA G3 750W PSU
Asus maximus viii hero Motherboard

Have you tried the Fornite forums? They would know if the patch did anything.

:qr:

I have and some posts like this:
https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/forums/technical-support/hardware-support/449302-very-low-fps-on-gtx-1080
https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/forums/bug-reports/battle-royale-aa/459989-the-fps-drop-after-v4-5-patch

I think its an issue with some cards because my old 1060 pretty much got the same, maybe a tiny bit worse but idk

Will probably do nothing, but just incase theres game files corrupt or missing, try verifying the game through epic launcher

Oh ok, is it just fortnite that its happening? There were new nvidia drivers released a few days ago which you could install if you havent already done so to see if that helps.

I have noticed a dip in performance and an increase in input lag in Fortnite since v5.40. I went from getting 160ish fps in-game and 2-2.5ms input lag (as shown in the main menu near fps counter) to getting 110 fps in-game and 8-9ms input lag. I just put it down to my computer getting on the older side now.

Hmm yeah.. idk could it be a bad gpu :-;
Anyway i can test it?

Seems like there's a memory leak in this update, after some 45 mins of play the client was consuming 7GB of RAM and growing.
^ Maybe this as i only got 8gb and fortnite takes literally 6.5gbs and fps seems to drop like 30mins into the game

I haven't gotten any fps drops in any other games though which is odd. At the same time I've looked at streamers and even though they're using high-end systems similarly specced as yours, they havent took a hit on fps.

That would make sense, damn what resolution do you play at for fortnite to use 6.5GB of VRAM? xd

My bad I coulda sworn I read VRAM xD

I'm also on 8GB of RAM and noticing the same affect as you so who knows, maybe the memory leak is the cause of the problem.

I had the exact same problem with PUBG when that was first released, the memory leak was so bad and I only had 8GB of it to begin with that I was getting choppish 30fps and crashes with memory error codes during gameplay. After the devs fixed it I went up to 80-90fps and no crashes.

Hmm yeah, anyway i can test my gpu to make sure its working properly?

You could test it still if you like or just wait for a few more patches from fortnite to see if they fix the problem on their end if there is one. If there is they'll want it fixed before season 6 is released.

From what I've been told to do with my card, just use benchmarks like unigine and see if theres any anomolys there like temperature increases causing thermal throttling.

Talking about thermal throttling, is your PC overheating?
