VR Performance - VRAM issue

[SimonR944]

Hi,

annoyingly in MP i am constantly noticing a lot of Framedrops in any maps and any aircraft. Soon as some action starts the GPU VRAM hits max limit and that's when i start having stutters or massive frame drops to 10FPS 

I have tried altering all graphic settings in game on NV control panel but doesn't seem to help... Any Ideas? really making me want to move away from VR

running a 3070ti 5800x3d 64gb DDR4 3600mhz nvme

My first suggestion is to run a search.  Others have experienced the same and there’s plenty of recommendations.

As a starting point, limit the preload to around 45% and set you Textures (scenery) to low

Do you use any mods in game? look here:

so i've noticed that whenever the game doesn't run optimally, it always says it's because of the mods.... i also have this problem that the vram is pumped to max, no matter what graphics settings i make, and then it starts to stutter, and no i don't use mods and this problem has become more massive since 2.9.

 

i have a 1080ti with 11 gb vram, and it's maxed out, even though i only play at 1080p with minimum graphics settings... before 2.9 i could even play 2k with medium to high settings at 60 fps without stuttering.

 

System I7 8700k , 32gb ram , 50gb pagefile, 1080ti, ssd m2 970 evo plus

even if you have enough VRAM, you will still have stutters.

If i understand you right, you set the oculus resolution to 5800x3... ? Because iam using the same graphicscard 3070ti and iam good with a resolution of 4128x2096 and ingame PD 1.1

For me its the best setting for good visual and performance - in standard missions with nearly all set to high my game runs at about 50-60fps.

so after a long back and forth and a lot of research, i slowly managed to get dcs running stable. i followed this tutorial and have to say that it finally works well again and the stuttering has come to an end. please try it out as long as there is no fix yet.
