I can't even achieve 60fps on 1080p ultra setting on far cry 5 with a 1080ti

I can't even achieve 60fps on 1080p ultra setting on far cry 5 with a 1080ti

I see frame rate tests with the 1080ti that get an average of 90fps with a minimum of 65fps while I lrop to the 40s on 1080p ultra. Please help me.

And I have 16gb ram and a i7-6700k 4ghz cpu

update: I found someone with the same exact set up and they average 80 fps, take a look

Everything seems normally, so, your system. Update the GPU, or formatting.

I have the latest drivers for my gpu, is there any other drivers that could help?

And how would I format and why would I format?

eotsa · Apr 5, 2018

If you haven't inform then should be format. Therefore, you can consider up to date BIOS.

Have you switched of Vsync?

cause when you switch on Vsync, it'll cap the FPS to 60.

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

Nuwan Fernando :

yeah I have v-sync on, should I not?

Nuwan Fernando · Apr 5, 2018

To achieve higher FPS, turn it off. Otherwise it'll cap the FPS to 60.

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

Nuwan Fernando :

Well 60fps is what I want so, I don't know if it will help

Nuwan Fernando · Apr 5, 2018

If you want to keep cap (keep the FPS under 60) the FPS turn Vsync on.

If you want to remove the cap(not limiting the FPS) turn the VSync off.

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

Nuwan Fernando :

Ight, thank you but, my problem is keeping it at 60 which I want to cap at because if it goes higher I have screen tear.

Nuwan Fernando · Apr 5, 2018

So, it's your benchmark that goes beyond 60fps?

Benchmark is something that measure the performance of the System, So it should remove all the limits imposed by such features.

Do you expect to cap a benchmark to 60FPS?

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

Nuwan Fernando :

No, no I have seen other people on youtube playing through far cry 5 with a 1080ti and they can get around 90 fps.

jaslion · Apr 5, 2018

jeffboy123 :

That is because they have vsync off. You want to make it stay at 60fps to prevent screen tearing and vsync locks the framerate at 60. I do not see the issue here.

The issue is that i'm dropping to the 40s with a 1080ti while in the benchmarks on youtube have minimums of around 70 and I don't know why.

That can happen. Far cry 5 once again is a cpu heavy game and on an older 3770 like yours a drop can happen from time to time.

When did you say that you are dropping to 40s?

opps sorry typo its a 6700

opps sorry I had to rewrite it because something glitched when I tried to post it the first time and I was remembering wrong, I fixed my original description, again sorry about that.

vsync will dip your fps if a frame is not rendered, it will skip a frame. Always bench with vsync off.

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

And by benchmarks I mean just playing the game not actually using the benchmark option so, I guess it’s a frame rate test.

zyh1987 · Apr 5, 2018

if you play with vsync on, your frame gen will be 16.6ms, it's expected to have a complete image generated every 16.6ms, once the image read then create the next one, it also lowers gpu load on powerful gpul. because the program will tell the card to render, only once every 16.6 ms, if one frame accidentally take 17 ms, you will be 1 frame short, it will replay that frame and use this one in the next frame, you get a stutter, your fps goes to 30, then back up to 60.

if you play with vsync off, your graphic card will try to render as much as your cpu allows, your frame gen will be about 11.1 ms (1/90fps by info supplied), one frame take 17 ms, doesn't affact your fps much, your screen will take w/e is available and you get tearing. however your fps will be higher.

But, wouldn't it still dip down to the 40s

Vsync caps your FPS to 60 so you shouldn't be wondering "why don't I get 80FPS?" or even comparing your system to others that don't have Vsync enabled. That is only going to have you going in circles. If you are getting bad tearing I'd upgrade to a gsync 144Hz display and preferably 1440p. With Gsync you don't get the lag dropped from 60 FPS and you don't get the tearing going above it. A GTX 1080 Ti is not a card you buy for 60Hz/1080p as you won't get your money's worth out of the card at all.

If you're playing on ultra and getting FPS drops that is because your processor is probably experiencing heavy load. Certain settings on ultra can be highly CPU intensive.

- Get a better display that doesn't tear past 60Hz and turn off Vsync.

- Overclock the processor you have or just buy a new better CPU like an 8700k or 8600k and a new motherboard and get fewer drops.

- Figure out which setting is in game causing FPS drops and turn it down.

jeffboy123 · Apr 5, 2018

I think I may have confused you guys because my issue does not lay with v-sync, on or off I still dip under 60.

jr9 · Apr 5, 2018

Is your FPS capped at 60 maximum with drops into the 40s? Or are you at something like 70 FPS and drops to 40s?

I can't even achieve 60fps on 1080p ultra setting on far cry 5 with a 1080ti
