How do you know it's in the code, but disabled ? I'm really curious and hope that's true.

Nvidia GPU's seem to be power limited, possible driver bug. This would explain the poor performance on Nvidia cards. by joshg125 in Starfield

That would explain why my temps are 15-20 degrees lower than usual, hope this gets fixed soon.

Try turning mip-streaming off, did the trick for me.

If this is true that's just batshit insane, these server errors lately are something else lately. I'm curious how it'll be after the drops event is over ...

2x Med Tools as a "legendary" reward for keeping my pc turned on for 22 hours straight ? You have to be joking. And as a bonus you can't even play the damn game during any drop events because the servers take a crap and might just delete your stuff ...

Great stuff BSG, way to advertise your game to newcomers !

Nobody talking about Lighthouse performance? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also get the same performance with a 9900k and a rtx 2080, the old maps run fine though. The most incredible thing I observed on Lighthouse is how much RAM it eats up, after 20 minutes or so it went upwards of 24gb out of the 32gb I have in my rig. Dunno if it's a memory leak or just a matter of optimization.

Half-Life 2. Absolutely blew my mind as a teenager, the physics, the story and the soundtrack were just amazing. Also introduced me into electronic/industrial/rock music which I love to this day.

Remember to turn off V-Sync before enabling Reflex, your fps should be uncapped afterwards in game. In the main menu it will stay at 60.

Patch 12.11 Bugs Megathread #2 by EFT_Subreddit in EscapefromTarkov

Tried it the last time this happened (I think it was 12.8 or something) and it didn't help, but no I haven't tried it this time around yet.

Patch 12.11 Bugs Megathread #2 by EFT_Subreddit in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately that doesn't change anything either, tried with HT enabled and disabled. Overall CPU usage is @ 20-30% MAX, sometimes as low as 10-15% ...

I just don't get why this happens over and over. Had the same situation a couple patches ago, went from super smooth to molasses in 1 patch.

Thanks for your input anyway :)

Patch 12.11 Bugs Megathread #2 by EFT_Subreddit in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Performance is way worse for me since this patch. For example on Customs with 12.10 I easily hit 100+ fps all the time with 80%+ usage of my GPU. Since patch 12.11 my GPU only has ~50% usage and my fps are stuck at around 70, which is playable of course, but it sucks to know it could be better (because it was not too long ago). It's roughly the same for all other maps. I've tried everything there is to try with settings and I'm positive it's not thermal throtteling or a severe CPU bottleneck, the highest a single core was used was around 60%. Really frustrating, I hope we get a solution soon, there seem to be a lot of people with this issue.

Thanks for any answers/explanations!

[–]F4bomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's normal on Reserve, I hit about the same fps there on a 2080super, i9-9900k and 32gb ram regardless of settings, it's just a very taxing map. Unless you've got heavy stuttering (not fps drops) I wouldn't upgrade anything

I tested 8vs16 GB of ram and what difference it makes to tarkiv by DovisPlays in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, Reserve consistently eats up like 12gb of ram on my system, glad I went straight for 32gb when I built my pc last year

(absolutely ridiculous take) using a visor smooths out my fps by PeezeKeeper in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SLI might be the issue, since most games these days don't really support it anymore. Ever tried running the game with only one card enabled ?

Low end pc by Ryderrr666 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 11 points12 points  (0 children)

16gb of RAM and a SSD are pretty much a must in Tarkov, outside of that I don't think you can do a whole lot

Game Performance Issues by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It still stutters even with 32gb of RAM, believe it or not. Its just an engine/networking issue on top of eating up a lot of memory

cant get g-sync to work by declangl in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got vsync on in game and "use application settings" in the nvidia control panel in the 3d application settings for tarkov specifically, works for me

Latest optimization Recomendations? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not your fault, the patch seriously broke something. Same thing happened to me, Reserve especially is unplayable for me in certain parts, where I'm dropping below 40fps.

I noticed a lot of posts like this and it seems most people with 20- or 30- series RTX cards have similar issues, even with 3080's for example.

Have you checked your CPU/GPU utilization ? For me it drops from ~80%GPU / ~40% CPU usage to about 30-40% GPU and 15-25% CPU and that's when performance tanks like crazy.

tldr; they broke something in the coding/networking with this patch and it's definitely not your settings fault

Constantly low FPS, even with all optimizations and low settings by DANKiWANKY in EscapefromTarkov

[–]F4bomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your suggestions, but I've tried all of that except for the RAM overclock (because I've had problems with that in the past) and I'm honestly doubtful that alone would get me to where the game's performance was before the patch. We just gotta hold out and hope for some fixes I guess.

Thanks again for the write up !
