Hello Everyone, I recently built a PC 2 weeks ago to play DCS and I have been having some frame rate issues.
My PC: Ryzen 7 3700X; 2070 super 8GB Vram; 2X16GB 3200MHz; 550W PCU; 1TB Samsung NVME SSD
My goal was to play DCS at 1080p, 60FPS, with high settings. However I'm unsure if the PC I bought is actually good enough for those goals. In heavy missions (such as "Combat Mission - Hornet 1989 - Close Air Support") my FPS fluctuates between 80-20 FPS depending on what stage of the mission I'm on. On carrier its about 80-40. On route its about 70-30. Dropping bombs its 50-20FPS.
I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be getting these low of frames. So I ran a test and I need some opinions. There is a screenshot of my settings down below in "Setting.png".
I ran the mission "Instant Action - F-18 - BFM MiG-29 Caucuses"
The fight lasted about 45 seconds.
An image listed "FR.png" shows my hardware's usage throughout the dogfight. Frame-rate is the very last column. The frame-rate during the fight is outlined in red. It fluctuates between 90-60 FPS.
Is this the type of performance I should be seeing with my rig? If so what is my bottle neck? If not, what is the issue?
