resolved MASSIVE fps drop even after upgrading to new PC?????

[SalakauHeadman]

Ok how isit even possible that my old pc can run dcs on an average of 50-100 fps with outdated specs (eg. RTX 2060 SUPER) but i bought a new pc with EVERY SINGLE DAMN PART UPGRADED and i carried over the EXACT SAME GRAPHIC SETTINGS and somehow EVEN ON THE MODEL DISPLAY SCREEN IN MISSION EDITOR MY GAME IS RUNNING AT 30 FPS???????? launched the mission and it is running at an abysmall 4FPS?????????????????????????????????????? NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING IT!!!!!!!! ISIT WINDOWS 11? my old pc was on windows 10, never had this issue until using this new pc, i really at my wits end can someone pls help

 

edit: i also want to ask isit something to do with the refresh rate settings in the display settings for windows? because i know my old pc is able to run stuff at 144fps and i have a 144hz monitor but windows 11 i dont see option to go beyond 75hz for refresh rate settings...

well currently it is not using the Graphics card but the internal GPU in the CPU ... so i would make sure the monitor is plugged into the right hole in the GPU, and i would turn off the internal AMD CPU's GPU in BIOS... and see where that takes you... 

I wouild also recommend  Options to optimize gaming performance in Windows 11 - Microsoft Support always this to begin with and make sure your motherboard drivers and firmware are up to date

Was just gonna say. 30FPS is impressive though!

make sure the cable from the monitor is plugged into the graphics card and not the motherboard. 

 

Check the caps lock key on your keyboard also, seems to be sticking
