coopercobra03 Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 I have the G1 and the G2, And on the same settings in DCS and steam I get 60 fps on a sample mission with the G1, and 30 fps with the G2. I even lowered some setting in steam and DCS, and I still can't get up to 60 fps, I might just send it back and go back to using the G1... Is there something I'm missing?
Eugel Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 Have you checked the resolution settings ? I don´t own a G1, but I´ve read that the steam render resolution with the G1 at 100% is at 2208x2160 per eye, while the G2 defaults to 3160x3096 per eye at 100%. That´s 9.5 million pixels vs. 19.5 million pixels, so half the framerate sounds about right.

Yeah, I thought steam res looked different to me, with my G1 I run 150% and with the G2 I lowered it to 100%, maybe needs to drop even more? do you have the G2?

I run my G2 at 100% resolution (3172x3100 per eye), Motion Smoothing on and forced at 45 fps. Pretty high graphics settings and it looks and runs great.

coopercobra03 Posted April 23, 2021 Author Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) I'm not having any luck with the G2, spent couple of hours changing settings in steam, nivida panel, DCS, matched the steam resolution with the G1 and I'm still getting like half the fps.. My test DCS mission gives me around 70fps with the G1 and like 45fps with the G2, The visuals between the G1 and the G2 are almost no different, I can't tell the difference between the two, also with the G2 I get this weird stuttering in the DCS menu screens? never with the G1... I'm pretty much done with the G2, packed it back up and it's going back for a refund, Oh well, Thanks for all the help.... Edited April 23, 2021 by coopercobra03
