Hi all, I'm hoping to get some guidance here if possible.
My uncle has a PC setup that's used purely for DCS, and I'm trying to help him tweak it's performance (he's 71). He's using the below setup:
i7 4790 @4GHz
Z97MX Gaming 5
32GB DDR3 2400
Titan X 12GB
Oculus (the first model that was released)
SSD
Logitech G940
Besides FPS dropping on some of the busier maps, the game will frequently freeze for a split second, as if something needs to load in the background.
When using VR mode, the FPS is 20-25. Looking at task manager, RAM usage is around 12-15GB, and the CPU and GFX are not even close to maximum. In this case, I'm not sure what the limiting component would be?
We tested the game in non-VR mode on a single monitor, and here the GFX card gets practically maxed, with FPS jumping to 50-60 FPS. However, there are still the occasional sudden split-second freezes which break the immersion.
Can anyone suggest where we can improve the setup, or what could account for these differences? There's one mission in particular that he's wanting to play, where you fly a FW-190 and intercept multiple bombers, and this map in particular brings the PC to its knees :D
Appreciate any assistance here!
