So for RTX 3070Ti use Nvidia Latency or not

[DmitriKozlowsky]

Should latency Mode be set in Nvidia panel to OFF, High, or Ultra. To avoid random stutters

hello. i have ULTRA set on my system. i do not think this is the only setting that helps with stuttering..

my specs

Intel 11th Gen Core i9-11900KF

128 GB Installed Memory

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090

i do not have repeatable stuttering. only very light and occasional.

Well I can't compare mine to yours. But I regularly average 100fps and above with AV-8B and UH-1H. I don't use DLSS, and DLSS don't seem to add FPS in my case. I dunno about DLAA.

I run Win10Pro 64 as HP mainboard lacks optional Trusted Platform 2.0 or something . According to Win11 Upgrade diagnostic. I don't seem to notice any issues with DCS or Maya, Houdini, Rhino3D, or NUKE. Vray GPU , Renderman XPU(GPU), and Arnold GPU all run just fine.

Using DCS in VR actual very smooth gameplay. My settings in NVCP:

- low latency mode - Ultra

- max FPS background programs and max FPS - 90 (because iam using 90hz within my oculus)

- V-Sync - application controlled

- prerendered VR frames - application controlled

 

and within DCS - fullscreen on, Vsync on, FPS Slider to 100fps and View Distance Ultra (on my system it seems it's working well with my NVCP settings)

Most scenarios smooth and free of stutters.

Max FPS should be equal to your panel's or VR set's refresh rate. My panel (s) are 144hz, which is very smooth. Above 90FPS DCS is very smooth, at 120 FPS diminishing return is reached. I set my Razer Athers poll rate at 250, from 500, and I can't tell any difference. I doubt Vsync would do anything for me, and might cost me 5-10 FPS, as very few empty missions break 144 FPS. You only need Vsync if you are producing such high FPS that display can't keep up. This is not a concern with DCS. For DCS to require Vsync, I would have to produce 280 FPS, which is not possible on my rig. 

IMHO, DCS multithreading, does not multithread that well. I can tell just by looking at my  perf monitor. When I render or run simulation cook under Houdini and render CPU Renderman, or Vray, or Arnold, the threads are loaded. All of them. To the top.When DCS runs, the threads are not loaded highly, even with many mission units, but Perf monitor shows 100% GPU and GPU ram usage. Tottaly loaded and temp rise drasticaly to between 78 and 98C. So DCS is GPU loaded not CPU. But MT DCS system RAM does use above 32gb of ram. Where as a desktop PC game is suppoused to run withn 16gb memory footprint. South Atlantic misison load is particularly heavy, using up to 38gb of ram to load, but dropping to 24gb during play.

i know that some motherboards may have a BIOS update to update an older TPM. also the TPM may be disabled.

My HP motherboard has HP TPM 1.0. 2.0 is a special order rather costly thingajig. HPZ workstations are my favorite rigs. Extremly rugged, and reliable. But its like owning an Audi or Porsche. Many HP specific upgrades are costly. Primary task of my rig is to run Houdini, Rhino3D, Maya, NUKE,and various CPU&GPU render engines. DCS is just a diversionary hobby.

If you change your TPM setting while using Windows-10. The next time Windows tries to update, it will automatically install windows 11. LOL, it did that to me with XP and Win 10.

Found out that there is no TPM 2,0 for my particular wkstation model. latest BIOS update updates to 1.2 Pro ver of TPM. HP has ended suppourt for my HPZ 420. Oh well. It was bought refurbed on the cheap.

My TPM is unchecked......

Leave Low-Latency Mode Turned OFF for flight sims because allowing pre-rendered frames gives better FPS and better frame pacing (minimizes stutters for a better impression of flight.)

Turn it on for twitchy FPS games.
