Certainly playable, but I feel like I should be getting better performance. Afterburner benchmark throughout a mission: Darktide.exe benchmark completed, 91856 frames rendered in 1076.062 s Average framerate : 85.3 FPS Minimum framerate : 50.2 FPS Maximum framerate : 139.8 FPS 1% low framerate …

also try turn off gsync, I have 3080/5600x and turning off gsync made my game way smoother

[image] H_D: ettings: VFOV 65, 2560 x 1440, DLSS Automatic, RT off, AO Low, Fog Low, DoF off, Bloom off, Skin Sub on, blur off, all lens off, 12 ragdolls, anything else high Lower worker threads to something like 12 and see if there is any difference. Tbf it is laughable that hardware is whic…

Yeah based on recommendations above I’m currently running on 8 with gsync off (the changing affinity to physical cores didn’t appear to have much of an effect on my rig). It’s maybe made a touch of difference overall, but I’ll re-benchmark a few missions tonight to get the actual numbers. It does se…

Generally AMD CPUs tend to be clocked lower than Intel. I would expect that in a game with a lot of enemies the CPU clock speed might make a difference for min/max fps. We all have seen the blog from one of the Darktide leaders. Their assumption seems to be PC gamers don’t care about performance, w…

OP, just wanted to pitch in that I have a very similar setup (3080, 5900X), and I’m getting nearly identical performance–yours should be like 5 to 10% better than mine. I’m going to fiddle with worker count and affinity, but I’ll be keeping an eye on this thread since you and I will likely have simi…

GeForce Overlay Causing Massive Instability/FPS Loss. Thoroughly Tested Geforce Overlay Nice, worth a go. I have the recording stuff turned off, but hadn’t disabled the whole overlay - will try that first :+1:

I gave it a try and it seemed like it was baseline smoother. Sitting at about 80 to 100 in missions between hordes. I still saw stutters and dips, especially during hordes, but that’s nothing new. Also, this is far from scientific or thoroughly tested on my part, but I also tried the Worker Count s…

[image] Decon: currently at 10 but I’ll probably go with the folk wisdom of setting it to one per physical core You’ve got 12 physical on your 5900X right? Try 8 as well to check how that feels.

Good call. I will when I have more time to play.
