Worst game performance after last OB update?

[Blackjack_UK]

I'm actually getting the game running perfectly smoothly...and then freezing for 20-30sec. Sound carries on and when it unfreezes everything works fine for another 3-5 minutes. Then it repeats. Oh, and the CPU fan goes up to full chat while it's frozen, then drops back to virtually silent again.

 

This is on Ka-50, which is the only thing I currently fly.

 

PC is an i7 with 16Gb, 2x512Gb SSD, Nvidia 1070GTX. Nothing else running except the Saitex stick programmer in the background, which hasn't changed.

Could be your PageFile offloading or such.

 

Try 32GB if you can afford it, or get the PageFile on a fast drive, like SSD and maybe away from the DCS drive or OS drive, you sure have an I/O blockade somewhere and those are the usual fixes ;)

Thanks for that. All the internal drives are SSD already. I use a discrete 128Gb drive for the pagefile so it doesn't have to share resources with application or OS calls. It's also on its own SATA channel.

 

I can go to 32Gb, but I rather feel I shouldn't have to - before this update the game was running just fine. Now it isn't, and that's not right.

My first play after updating was choppy but subsequent flights have been OK (well, DCS's version of OK). I put it down to DCS re-arranging its insides.

Oh well, you maxed it out already

 

Give 32 a chance, it should smoothen things and be the dot on your i.

I never touch my Pagefile settings and leave it for the system to do it's own management, which I find by far to be the best options on the modern windows OS versions.

 

2.5.4 runs smooth and totally stuttering free in my old i5 2500, with Vsync OFF.

I noticed it too, this update gave me less FPS than before.
