**Issue Description:** Max fps is 120 in 1440p but as soon as the level open up a bit or even just sitting behind the terminal and looking at spawn in the Mourningstar fps goes to 60 or even 50. Some maps run fine for a while and then suddendly back to 50 again even tho nothing partecularely demanding is on screen. The assasinations missions just runs terribly i’m at 50 fps most of the time For the record average fps on VT2 is 100 on Legend I know it’s not the same game Darktide is gorgeous but I think I should at least hit a stabe 80 fps **Attempted Solutions:** I updated all I could possibly update, Tried adjusting all the settings tried changing some OC settings (on afterburner) even disabling it completely, I tweaked some settings in the “user\_settings” config file (that helped a little but I still got massive FPS drops) I also tried adjusting the worker threads, disabled core 0 but that didn’t help either. **Platform:** Steam **PC Specifications:** RTX 2080 i5 9600KF 16GB of ram SSD **Upload Console Log:** [console-2022-11-22-16.25.31-8965fa53-37f3-4c87-b347-4253a904246f.log](https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/uploads/short-url/8qU78GfYcKIQ8z9P8gZkVhf1Fa2.log) (244.9 KB) **Upload darktide\_launcher.log:** [darktide\_launcher.log](https://forums.fatsharkgames.com/uploads/short-url/oPRtnlr98alPUSyY32iVBlXGwzr.log) (662.4 KB) ---

Out of curiosity, what is your total system ram usage if you look at the Task Manager with the game running? ---

I have an RTX 2080 ti as well, but the game is playable for me! I have about a steady 58 fps, aside from micro-stuttering (but I think thats related to the game’s networking). If you want to know how I have my ingame settings, they are as follows: Ingame settings for Warhammer 40,000 - Darktide Display Field of View: HFOV/VFOV: 97/65 Resolution: 3840x2160 Screenmode: Fullscreen VSync: Off Performance NVidia DLSS: On Super Resolution: Automatic NVidia Reflex Low Latency: Enabled Framerate Cap: Unlimited FidelityFX Super Resolution 2: Off FidelityFX Super Resolution 1.0: Off Sharpen: Off Anti Aliasing: Off Raytracing Raytracing: Off Ray Traced Reflection: Off RTX Global Illumination: Off Graphics Preset Graphics Quality: Custom Advanced Graphics Ambient Occlusion Quality: High Light Quality: High Volumetric Fog Quality: High Depth of Field: High Global Illumination: High Bloom: On Skin Sub-Surface Scattering: On Motion Blur: Off Screen Space Reflections: High Lens Quality: On Lens Quality Colour Fringe: On Lens Quality Distortion: On Lens Flares: All lights Scatter Density: 1.00 Max Ragdolls: 12 Max Weapon Impact Details: 50 Max Blood Decals: 50 Decal Lifetime: 40 Gore Settings Blood Decals: On Gibbing: On Enemy Wounds: On Ragdoll Interaction: On NVidia Control Panel Global Settings Image Scaling: Off Ambient Occlusion: Off Anisotropic filtering: Application-controlled Antialiasing - FXAA: Off Antialiasing - Gamma correction: On Antialiasing - Mode: Application-controlled Antialiasing - Setting: – Antialiasing - Transparency: Off Background Application Max Frame Rate: Off CUDA - GPUs: All DSR - Factors: Off DSR - Smoothness: – Low Latency Mode: Ultra Max Frame Rate: On \> 58 fps Monitor Technology: G-SYNC Multi-Frame Sampled AA (MFAA): Off OpenGL GDI compatibility: Auto OpenGL rendering GPU: Auto-select Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance Preferred refresh rate (Asustek Computer Inc ROG PG27U): Highest available Shader Cache Size: Driver Default Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization: Off Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias: Allow Texture filtering - Quality: Quality Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization: Off Threaded optimization: Auto Triple buffering: Off Vertical sync: On Virtual Reality pre-rendered frames: 1 Virtual Reality – Variable Rate Super Sampling: Off Vulkan/OpenGL present method: Auto I’m going to upload a video and share it later just to show how it performs and everything. ---
