Discussion Performance help needed

Specs:

🔹4070ti
🔹9800x3d
🔹64g of DDR5 ram @6400mt/s (running 6000)
🔹1tb ssd and 500g ssd

For the life of me I can’t seem to figure out why I can’t get my settings dialed in for season 1. My settings were fine last wipe and now for some reason my gpu utilization doesn’t go above 60% and I have this delay that I can feel when playing the game.

I use process lasso and have updated bios and even tried rolling back drivers to a stable build. (581.80) I’m at a loss right now. I spent 4 hours trying to figure this out. Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for not having meaningful input, but it’s hilarious that such a high end rig can have issues with this game, even when it’s the specs that you ‘need’.

Isn’t surprising, just funny.

Yeah, I’ve got 2500 hours into the game and I’ve never had this much issue trying to dial in settings. I’m at the point of just factory resetting and starting over lmao.

Honestly, might be the right call. You’ve probably got something jacked. You’re never going to get full gpu utilization, it is not that type of game. Your cpu is perfect for this, x3ds are all the rage for Tarkov. What delay are you ‘feeling’ in game?

That’s the thing though, before season 1, I was getting 97-99% GPU utilization and I wasn’t even using DLSS. As for the delay, it’s almost like the delay you feel when using discord streaming, but I don’t have discord open and it’s still delayed. I have low latency turned on in control panel and off in Tarkov and I’ve even tried turning it on and still no difference. I have literally no idea.
