What kind of performance should I expect?
Ryzen 3900x
2080 Ti
16GB @3600
(No Mods)
(Medium Graphics)
I start a new game and I get around 80fps with medium graphics set, and then a minute or two later the frames drop to around 35 to 45. Is this normal?

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Try playing around with your ingame graphics settings. And maybe with your driver settings, too. What kind of settings do you have, did you customize any? Anti-Aliasing is always a big one. But getting low FPS with a graphics card like you have should not be a problem, I think. I got an older graphics card than you and run the game with higher settings without problems.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
I'd say very good performance, especially with that cpu. A 2080Ti is not to be sneezed at either. Like the other poster says you could be pushing your graphical settings too much as you don't actually tell us what your settings are or where the drops happen. However, 80 is still good, as to why it's dropping to 35-45, I don't know. Are the drops for long periods or just momentary, for mere 1 or 2 seconds? Have you tried running it WITHOUT looking at the FPS numbers and see how it feels? Would you have even noticed the drop if you couldn't see the numbers?xXZexxMooreXx wrote: ↑Wed, 3.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
It seems that I shouldn't be having low FPS like I am then. I turned the settings to low and disabled AA and the FPS is still around 35 to 45. I also checked to see if my CPU was throttling, but it never went over 70c.
Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Ime it depends what is rendered (what you are looking at). In some sectors I got 80+ fps, in others 30ish. Near my factory complex it goes down to 20 fps. That's on Ryzen 9 3950X, Radeon 5700XT and 32GB RAM.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Yeah definitely you should be getting better performance. I run max graphics on GTX1060 and a i5-4460. I still get mostly 30-60 fps except in my own huge station complexes and in large warfare. And I even run some performance heavy mods that increase overall counts of ships.
Don't know what the problem is but I don't think you should be getting choppy performance except in huge carrier wars if even then.
You say that a minute or too later the performance drops. That sounds like a memory leak. Someone wiser can perhaps offer solutions.
Are you sure the FPS is showing correctly? Do you experience the game being choppy?

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Should not be dipping that much when in empty space. Make sure your CPU is sufficiently cooled (not thermal throttling). Same for GPU, make sure it is not thermal throttling.
I also use a R9 3900X and get fairly good performance all the time. Large or busy stations still cause performance issues but that is expected.
Try lowering memory clock to 3200 MHz. My R9 3900X was unstable at 3600 MHz and any sort of instability can affect performance. In my case it is likely due to running 4 DIMMs putting too much load on the infinity fabric.
Some people with Zen2 processors have reported that a UEFI (BIOS) update drastically improved their performance. If you are using an old UEFI or never updated your UEFI it might be a good idea to try this.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Everything is up-to-date and there's no throttling with either the GPU or the CPU.
I have noticed that, when the FPS drops in half, pressing the escape key restores the FPS. I've been playing around with it for the past hour and it has worked the four times it's happened.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
I have a 1060 and it runs at 60 fps on 1080p with all settings at max and with FXAA plus no scaling. The game doesn't use 100% of the GPU nor the CPU. Thermals are around 60C.
Yes, the fps drops to 45 fps (triple buffer with vsync) in places that it uses the new effect features like fog or reflection. I'd say it's a great improvement since when these features were launched.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Could it be some kind of windows notification thats in the background or something? Sounds like some 3rd party problem. Atleast windows notifications drop FPS in other games for me. Did you try it on borderless windowed mode instead of fullscreen?xXZexxMooreXx wrote: ↑Thu, 4. Aug 22, 13:44Everything is up-to-date and there's no throttling with either the GPU or the CPU.

Re: What kind of performance should I expect?
Map lag can be significantly reduced by disabling your own and allied waypoint tracking through the filters.
Asteroid amount seems to matter quite a bit. It and heavy fighting combined at Second Flashpoint makes it likely the slowest fps sector. Another quite slow seems to be the Xen sector near Ianamus Zura.
