EVGA 1070 Superclocked 8GB and 1440p getting slaughtered by 2.1, ideas?

[Ghostrider142]

Here is my system:

i7-4770K @3.50GHz

EVGA 1070 8GB Superclocked

MSI Z97 Gaming

Samsung SSD

16GB ram

 

I am running on a 32" 1440p monitor and have been playing 2.0 on the max settings, with the exception of turning Msaa down to 4x and Anisotropic to 4x, and was getting good frames, 50-60 range.

 

Running 2.1 and I have already turned off msaa and anisotropic entirely, turned trees and clutter down to minimum, set my cockpit displays to 512 and fold the mirrors as soon as I start and my frames jump from 21, 60, 32, 21, 70, 30, 60, 21, 2-3 times a second and visually it looks like I'm getting 15 frames a second.

 

If I am going to have to turn down settings to the low or medium default with a system like mine, something is seriously wrong.

 

Anyone have a 1070 and run 1440p? What are your settings and frames?

I have a 980GTX AND RUN MSAA2X AND AAF 16X and have like 2-3x the framerate !

 

Something must be wrong !

 

I have Mirrors ON, Visibility to Extreme, Civiltraffic OFF, Shadows Medium+Flat and the others at HIGH and 512bit for cockpit res. Trees are at 14k, Grass at 500 and Preload at Max.

 

So I guess my settings are even somewhat more demanding while still getting more FPS.

 

your 3.5GHz might be the reason, try overclocking it (way) beyond 4GHz and check again.

Check out all the threads covering Normandy and frame rates. There are some incompatibility issues with graphics settings, and even steps like renaming your saved games folder to force the shaders stored within to be regenerated can make a huge difference.

 

I gained around 30% in frame rates by following all the steps the resident experts describe in them.

 

You just need to do your homework for some seriously useful results.

My 1070 runs pretty close to 100% in places at 1080p. 1440p is going to push it over the limit. Run MSI Afterburner and see what's the bottleneck for you.

Both shadow settings flat only! Helped me

Thanks for the tips guys, I have a feeling something is going on here.

 

Bitmaster is that at 1440p?

 

Is there a thread in particular that has the best info?

I was getting bad fps in 2.1, down to 30:cry:

 

Now

90 fps down to 55 FPS when over Caen in Normandy.

 

Regarding DCS World 2.1 Release

6. If using Deferred Shading, you may wish to set your MSAA and Anisotropic values to zero, and instead enable these only through your graphics cards settings manager.

 

Go to your NVIDIA and set MSA, AA up there, now I get 80 - 90 FPS

50 over Caen City etc in the free flight mission Bf 109 for an example.

 

Everything on High etc

 

My Spec at the moment

I5 4690 3.5 Ghz

16 GB DD3 Ram 1666mhz

DispalyPort G-SYNC 2560 x 1440 (144Hz) 1ms

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming 8GB

I did the saved folder trick and frames shot back up.

 

I set my AA in Nvidia but I don't see an MSAA in the control panel, so I left it in DCS, fps still good. Is it under another name?

 

However the flare/glare is outrageous Normandy, especially over the water, anyone else having this. I can't see things right in front or next to me at times because of it.

[NeilWillis]

The flare has been noted by the developers. Expect a lot of refinement in the coming weeks.

 

I also suspect that the in-game control of graphics parameters will be resolved in the short term too.

 

Good to know you are getting the results you need.

Here are my settings for NVIDIA attached and colour correction done in the Adjust color section.

 

 

Can be Adjusted while in game to suit your screen.

Bitmaster is that at 1440p?

correct, 1440p

 

I dont have Normandie, but NTTR.

Awesome, thanks :thumbup:

[Ghostrider142]

Well, I take back everything I said about the saved games folder fixing the game, it doesn't. When I play an instant action or a mission that comes with a module, it is fine, but any mission I have made, including a small one I made tonight in Normandy the stuttering is still really bad, regardless of my settings.

 

Hope the next update comes soon.

[gavagai]

correct, 1440p

NTTR has pretty good performance in 2.1. Normandy is still pretty rough, so I wouldn't use NTTR performance for discussions of 2.1 Normandy performance.

 

Adjusting settings may help some, but it is no substitute for a fix from ED. 2.1 performance is definitely worse than 2.0.5, even in the NTTR map.

[BitMaster]

The OT does not state which map, just 2.1.
