3080 and a 5600x at 1440p and really surprised how much I'm struggling to run this well. Nvidia need to come out with DLSS for sure.

[@AmishMinister]

check nexus. there’s a mod by Puredark.

[@Dynasty1818]

@@masterskinpipe yeah you can, it can just cause some flickering issues from what I've seen/read. Nvidia will turn it all around I'm sure. Almost all FPS comparisons being done on KZbin are showing some 10-20+ FPS higher on AMD cards vs Nvidia, all screams AMD optimization.

[@hugoigni]

same config here, i installed the dlss mod and gained 4-5 fps, and it looks so much better than fsr, i recommend you try

I have the flickering issue with FSR2 right now.@@Dynasty1818 My 3070 is very depressed while playing this game.

[@nl1281]

Something to note is that DLSS will maybe provide you with 5 more FPS. The issue with FSR is not that DLSS markedly beats it in improving your FPS, it's that it looks so much better while doing so.

[@freestyloo1]

I had an RTX 4090 and a Ryzen 9 5950X and have on 4k with FSR and all max out ~70 fps outside and 50 fps in rooms...wtf The performance for the game is really bad...

You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Excellent explanations of what each element does and your suggested setting have improved my performance ten fold.

Nicely done Sir, straight to the point and factual.

[@Hybred]

Just as an FYI I made a performance mod that doesn't decrease visual fidelity called "Optimal Performance" I recommend pairing it with these settings, it's free FPS.

[@DrunkNugget]

I’ve been chugging at like 45 FPS running pretty much max settings, I think only because that was its default. Film grain on 100 booting the game up is jarring, only thing i changed was cutting that number in half before the intro dialogue was over

[@henrywagner113]

thank you for the help. a lot of the display settings looked kind of obvious to me but there were a few that i didn't realize were screwing with performance. i have similar specs to you and my pc runs every other game insanely smooth but this game isn't optimized very well.

[@fustercluck2460]

Apparently I just got lucky I run on ultra settings with my laptop and I've never seen it go below 60 frames per second except for one occasion where I used the console command for infinite money and I built the largest ship possible with nothing but hubs and it managed to go down to about 45 frames per second

What if vrs is grayed out an off

[@Krustenfresser]

but it depents what GPU, CPU, and RAM you have BIG TIME i think the best way is wehn you have a nividia gpu to juste geforce experiance and make the first settings from starfield to optemize via geforce experiance and then test it and after every change you make test it it takes some time but then you see what option have a good or bad impact and you lern how to do it for further games. but Great video

[@rudolphmiller]

Can't turn off anti aliasing and no texture quality option, wtf

[@Drastivik]

Chiming in for those out there like me who have a pretty good PC but a terrible display: I'm using a $150 32" Element smart TV, and it is dogwater. My PC is pretty good. RTX 3060, 64GB of RAM, 12th Gen Intel i7-12000K. The issue is that while the rig could likely handle a stagnant 60fps, the refresh rate of the TV just isn't anywhere near enough and it ends up with a lot of screen tearing, even with v-sync enabled. The solution I've found is to crank every setting to the absolute maximum to tank your FPS down to the refresh rate of the display. I'm still getting screen tearing, but the motion blur and lower frame rate definitely helps. And I still get a good looking game as a plus.

MFs really out here doing "Best settings for FPS" guides without even showing their specs or a before/after.

[@FourEyesGames]

1. Main specs are in the description of the video if you actually looked. 2. Showing FPS before and after on my specific setup serves no purpose since everyone's mileage will vary. It's a 10 minute quick video to help people out that will improve your performance assuming you aren't bottlenecked. Complainers gonna complain though I guess 🤷‍♀️

[@Mathias_101]

@@FourEyesGames I'll be honest, I was disappointed that at the end of the video no gameplay shown with the original and new settings were shown, irrespective of setup displaying this would have demonstrated how effective your optimised settings were both on the improvement in FPS and how they impacted the visuals. This is a fairly standard practice when creating a video such as this.

Hello, i have a 3070 and this game seems to be capped to 30fps, or atleast it seems to be stuck at that number and never going below 30 it's a 100% stable 30fps so my gpu should definitely be able to push more fps but no Matter what settings i put and even if i pert Nvidia control panel to use highest refresh rate possible the game stays at 30fps and it's just unplayable

[@Whiteshade]

did youı try to turn-off vsync? Most games lock vsync to 60 fps but starfield is weird one maybe they lock it to 30fps.

that is v-sync without triple buffering. It means your fps will stick to the next divisible x2 number. You are probably in a 60 hz monitor and it goes to 30 if it can reach 60 stable...

Weirdly enough the performance got better when I increased the graphics just like what happened on Remnant 2 for me the lower the settings are the more the game performs worse.

[@wololo__]

You're probably being capped by the CPU, I'm getting 70% usage on my RTX 3060 TI most of the time with similar settings on open areas. Shitty dev optimization, I can get up to 120 FPS indoors and constantly get 50 fps outdoors on 1440p with DLSS. This game isn't even supposed to be that demanding, Cyberpunk has way better graphics and doesn't run as bad as Starfield. Thank god for Gamepass, otherwise I would have refunded this game immediately.

[@RiGoRmOrTiSUK]

i was trusting your opinion on those settings until you said most of the time FSR2 is better than DLSS in most games.. now I doubt you've even checked the visual impact of the other options...

[@FourEyesGames]

In most games I have had experience with recently, FSR2 has been better than DLSS. The DLSS ghosting issues have plagued many games. When the ghosting isn't a problem, DLSS is better. I'm going to test the DLSS mod today and see if it is better than FSR2 🙂

with a g-sync monitor you can leave v-sync off as it actually lowers and raises ur refresh rate of the monitor to match your fps so you dont get screen tearing. i use a gsync monitor and have never got screen tearing and i also never have v-sync on. thanks for the tips helped a lot with my fps

[@tungchihang2007]

Cool tips , i need to try this . Currently i have 60-80 fps but feels not so smooth .

[@ArcAios26]

side note, you actually can get screen tearing with a gsync monitor if your framrate exceeds the max refresh of the monitor which is where you would use either an adaptive vsync from the nvidia control panel that only vsync's when fps exceeds refresh or my personal favorite is frame limit rendering to a few frames less than max so gsync is always active.

[@sceneraider5455]

@ArcAios26 I did not know you could get screen tearing a g sync monitor if your fps exceeds you refresh rate. Thank you for the tip 👍

[@deadshot4245]

I would add though if you have massive swings in fps lock it to the lowest average so go to the busiest space find that and lock it for the program in the control panel like for my rig I can run it uncapped and see 30 to 60 ultra preset so for stability of the feel I cap it at 30 for the hell ofnit and its just fine is it better at 60 sure is fps dips more annoying than locked 30?

[@piuli95]

As someone who has played videogames my whole life with low budget computers, Do not fear the word "Low", We assume that it means compromise to something bad for quality, even tho the low doesnt always mean that its compromised, its just a word for the lowest setting even when its not really removing the quality to the point that we even see whats bad.

No joke, watch the Hardware Unboxed video where they compare of all these settings. I promise it's wild how little things visually change from Ultra to High to Medium.

I used to like your older videos where you would actually shoe before and after results. E.g from high settings FPS Vs optimised settings FPS. Now the thumbnails are just clickbait stock images.. showing 144 FPS HAHAHA. Please, I admire you effort - but stop taking shortcuts and actually Backup the subjectivity of your recommendations please!

[@K1LLW1N]

Mans just doing what works, you may not like it, but the clicks say otherwise :/

@K1LLW1N below basically answered how I would answer. YT is incredibly competitive in this niche and I have enough case studies with a proven concept that gets good feedback overall. Putting 60fps -> 80fps just does not grab attention to the thumbnail like known numbers 144fps. I even give the disclaimer in the video to not expect gigantic gains but that I do my best to give recommendations. At the end of the day, the video is here to improve people's performance in the game and this video definitively does that. Stretching/emphasising the focal point of the video in the thumbnail, is the meta on YT now, whether we like it or not.

[@arny_FPS]

Fair enough. But can you at least show before and afters with your own setup? Will give some more credibility of an increase, even if it's 10 or 30 FPS increase. You also say things like "this setting will hit your FPS", in this case you can literally turn it on and off and note the user at the FPS gain turnin it off. Just add some more objectivity to the videos was more my point. Looking forward to the next ones.

I have an rtx 3080, i5 13500 and 16gb ram ddr4 3200....at 1440p and max settings with fsr disabled i gen 40-60 fps in New Atlantis, without any hitches. So no, i don't think i will use fsr...maybe an 80% scaling if things become too extreme on some planet...didn't play too much yet. I agree that some settings are too much performance hit, so i might tweek the shadows too.

[@brettcoles5262]

Running the game with 4080 I get over 80 fps with no up scaling at 4K. Why so many people getting way less?

[@thepip-boy3902]

Not gonna lie dude I’d remake this video. He kind of just suggested to make the thing look like a potato.

I have RTX 3060 12 Gb …. During this process set up, my Nvidia FPS was showing 74-75 … as soon as turned off VSync the FPS shot up to 165

800+ dislikes? Why???

[@voight-kampff7781]

lol the render resolution is meant to be used with AMD FSR. When you turn AMD FSR on you can set the render resolution instead of the older style "quality, balanced, performance" options we have on some other games. I figured this out in like 2 mins, but I know a lot about FSR and DLSS already so this may not be obvious to more casual gamers. When playing at 4k on a 3090, I still need my render resolution at 50% with amd FSR, which isn't very bad tbh.

[@FourEyesGames]

Yeah I realised this in retrospect. Never seen this implementation before but I like that they've given us the option. They definitely should make it more instantly obvious in the settings though.

[@Sneakyboson]

75% render scale at 1440p with FSR on should be 1080p internal rendering which I'm pretty sure is the equivalent of 'quality' mode.@@FourEyesGames

[@zmaster19852000]

you lost me at "FSR2 is better then DLSS"... *Facepalm*

[@eloyhbermudez]

TLTR just turn everything to low
