Hello, doing this as a last hope.
I have tried every tweak on my pc, everything on low, even res on 1920x1080.
been trying out DLSS and FSR 3.1 and FSR 1. everything on ultra performance.
I start with easly 140 + fps, after one match it start stuttering and fps down to 40-60 fps.
reinstalled my pc, drivers and cleared everything from steam and darktide.
Nothing, i do not know anymore…
Using a monitor w 2560x1440 res.
Hello!
Your Darktide FPS drop from 140+ to 40-60 after one match, even after reinstalling everything, strongly points to thermal throttling (CPU/GPU overheating) or a memory/VRAM leak. Crucially, monitor Dog translation app your CPU and GPU temperatures and clock speeds using tools like HWMonitor during gameplay; if temps hit 85°C+, it’s likely throttling. Solutions include improving laptop cooling (pads, cleaning fans, repasting thermal compound), monitoring RAM/VRAM for leaks, ensuring all Darktide settings (especially Volumetric Fog/Ray Tracing) are truly at their lowest, and verifying Windows/NVIDIA power settings.
Seems very similar to what is happening to me if not the same. Game runs well, i play, and suddenly it breaks, no matter setting or temps. If i dont restart it wont run well again.
I have notices when it happens on The Mourninstar (where on can try better as you are not doging and killing), that if i leave the character still, performance goes back to normal and stutter is gone, but as soon as i move or move the mouse it starts stuttering again (if it would be thermal issue ith should be consistent). When this happens both my CPU and GPU utilization seems to drop, and when i am still it goes back to normal/
Seems like the game for some reason starts mismanaging the resources.
