GPU to Mainthread Limited w/SU5 - No FPS Gain -

Featured Replies

Hi

Before SU5 I was always limited by GPU as it's quite normal that my RTX 3070 is not enough for 4K@100. (What Dev Mode FPS counter showed all the time)

After the update with the exact same settings and config Dev Mode FPS counter shows "Limited by Mainthread PC" but I'm sure I'm still limited GPU (100%) usage as I check values from RTSS. 

It looks a bit weird to me. Anyone experience the same ? 

By the way I didn't get any noticable gain with SU5. Is that normal ? I see lots of people are sharing their hugely improved FPS's ! What am I missing ? 

I tried changing lots of variables to see if I set anything wrong but no success. In game settings - BIOS settings - Nvida driver changes - Capping FPS in game or by Nvida or not capping etc.

How on earth some people see big improvements and some dont ?  

System:
RTX 3070 - AMD 5600X - 32 GB RAM 
Default BIOS (RAM @ 3200MHZ) - Default Nvidia Settings

Latest drivers - Clean Commnity Folder
Updated Win 10 to latest build as always 

Kind regards.

I actually was not expecting that big a gain. many of my tests had shown me limited by my GPU.......

Yet apparently, transferring some thing (is suspect they transferred more than simply glass screen calculations) apparently either better balanced the system, or somehow freed up my GPU which is now pretty much pegged at 99% utilization. (Fortunately the cooling is good!)

The boost was/is substantial, and if I turn down my render scaling to 1080p, I can actually easily get 80 to 90fps even in the Flybywire A320 at ultra settings.

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.
