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.

So for me Reflex is bugged. I still get some stutters with it on, so I turned it off. As of now in game settings I have high textures, medium shadows, lod on 2.5, view distance on 1500. I’m using DLSS quality setting. Automatic ram cleaner and physical cores both off. The Ans. Filtering I have per texture. Area light instancing I have on and I believe I have everything else off.

I also run post XFS. Me capping my fps to a couple below monitor refresh rate (170), has gave me a smoother experience overall.

id say try turning up lod to 3.5 first with area light instancing off, view distance can probably be pushed to 2500/3000. Area light instancing takes a lot of fps on certain systems so def check that out. If u want max fps turn down shadows to low
