It is? Am I doing something wrong? Because I get a solid 60-70 fps at all times on a 3070ti
From what I recall from one of their Directs, Digital Foundry corroborated another outlet's finding that ultra settings (and I think specifically ultra shadows) are unoptimized. Tons of weird frame time jittering, and like a 15% drop in FPS compared to AMD. So, if you have shadows turned to High or lower, that'll explain it. Otherwise, what they're saying is an AMD equivalent would be getting 70-80 fps in your case.
My 6650 XT isn't quite the same but I can't even get those framerates with low to medium settings. lol
It's more like 40-75 FPS depending on the location.
What CPU are you using? I've read it can be CPU heavy.
Not original dude but
I'm using an i7 11700k and a 1660 super and getting 60fps with occasional drops to 50.
My old i7-9700k is on ~50% on all 8 cores, my 3080Ti is on 100% and I get about 70-90fps.
My 3070 is at 99% utilization while my ryzen 5800 is at 27%
What are your settings?
At what resolution?
Noo you're not allowed to enjoy the game, the internet people said that Bethesda are terrible developers and the game runs like shit
The game runs well on midnrange pcs, but it scales terribly as you move up the stack. It has the problem crysis had.
lemmy guess, you are less than 8 hours in the game?
Little over 36 hours. Every setting on the highest it can go
