Hey folks,

 

So I recently built a little rig to run DCS World and I basically have it set up in the graphics settings to the point of where I can fly around almost anywhere with smooth FPS including Vegas. Of course I do get some lower fps and a bit of stuttering when on the flight line at Nellis but that is understandable.

 

What is not understandable is why I have some serious FPS drops and stutters when I run even really simple basic missions like 1 v 1 BVR fight at 20,000ft over the Persian Gulf. If it's 1 v 1 BFM there's no issues. 1 v1 BVR - I start to see very noticable fps drops. and 8 v 8 BVR is just terrible fps-wise. Or for example the Area Familiarization flight in the F/A-18 BFM Campain (mission 1) where you just fly with nothing happening around the NTTR with a wingman - low fps there too.

 

Is this normal? Does even a basic mission turn a smooth game into a frustrating stuttery experience?

It's a 7700HQ in an XPS 15 with a cooling pad, extra thermal pads, with an eGPU RTX 2080 Super. 32GB RAM, 2TB EVO 970 SSD running a 4k screen.

So I've figured something out - the FPS drops are partly due to having the SA page up in the Hornet on the lower display. Maybe something ED could look into?
