I clicked on this video and while watching I was certain that you must've had ~100k subs. Amazing video and if you keep it up i'm SURE you will get there in no time. Sent this to a few friends

[@tylerflanagan1776]

Asked the overlay question a couple days ago in a video and then boom. You hook me up with a whole video. Keep up the good work bro

[@virun2028]

can we appreciate the sheer amount of work this man puts into his community! love your work mate pc sherpa is the coolest idea!

[@klemintime1452]

Thanks! It was recommended to me by a channel member and it was definitely a great call- now I just have to try and manage all the form submissions 😅

appreciate your videos so much. watched a couple of them, increased my streets fps by about 20! much love brother

[@francosmith9326]

Man this is the best resource on MSI out there. GJ

[@gwr3845]

Good video sir, about the overlay stats themselves, so to get each item to show in one group just tick that item, and make sure each one has the same group name. Does the overlay automatically display them in a row? I tried previously to group FPS, low 1% and max in one but it would only show live FPS Also if I want to see the core clocks of my cpu how do I get them to show vertically rather than side by side in one line Cheers

[@handy4459]

A lot of knowledge I like it

Hello! Have you considered testing turning off Meltdown/Spectre fixes?

[@mlehman1991]

Great video as usual. As a old guy that reads slow 😁Please leave your texts overlay up for a little bit longer. :P And yes I know " just pause it you old fart"

[@klemintime1452]

No no thats a good call- the text I was writing was unusually long too, but I'll make sure to leave it there for a bit longer next time :)

[@WheelchairOperator]

I'm super illiterate when it comes to PC stuff and feel like I'm being bottlenecked somewhere, so I def want to reach out to you for help. I have an AMD 5700x, 64gb of RAM and a 3070 but only get roughly 35 fps on Streets. Edit: Klem found my issue right away and was able to walk me through a solution! Getting double the performance now!!

[@frenzyio]

35????? HUHHHHHHH

[@WheelchairOperator]

Yep. That's my average. I can get up to 45 in spikes on the high end. I have no clue what's wrong with my stuff.@@frenzyio

[@klemintime1452]

35 is c r a z y. I'd expect that system to normally get 50-60 on streets and NOT that. There's some thing bigger going on there so if you can, either hop in my discord and make a post in the help-forum or hop in one of my streams sometime so we can discuss it. That's definitely abnormal.

[@amiinside91]

nah 35 is insane. something is definitely wrong there. u should be getting around 60fps on streets when boss spawns in raid.

[@WheelchairOperator]

@@klemintime1452 I definitely need some help with whatever is going on because it’s driving me up a wall. When are you streaming next?

[@andyziri985]

Hey man i watched ur video's and cant find any solution to why im getting bad fps in tarkov i got 4060 ti and amd 9 3900x can help?

[@MrJB31]

Noob here. Are you always going to be either CPU/GPU bound. What if you theoretically bought the best GPU/CPU combo there could be? You’d run the game at max settings and they would just handle it without either bottlenecking each other? That’s the perfection scenario right?

[@klemintime1452]

You will always be bottlenecked by your CPU or your GPU. The only other option is to be frame capped, and then, well.. that's the "bottleneck". No matter the build, something will always be the bottlenecking factor. Now, hypothetically, if there was a system that teetered just on the edge of that with say 95-99% GPU usage, that would be the ideal scenario. Having that shows there is near perfect balance between the CPU and the GPU in terms of processing time for the frame, and then you have what most would call a "balanced rig". Hope this helps and good question :)

@@klemintime1452 Appreciate the reply! Love the vids, keep up the good work.

[@drizzyfolife8315]

Question so is disabling hyperthreading still the best for performance on cpus?

[@danschaefer4385]

i have question my stats are basically identical to yours and % and temps pretty spot on and its not to bad but how are you getting your ram usage up mine is sitting at half or less then yours and i cant get it to use more

[@defiyy]

4080 + 7800x3d here and no clue how to optimize my game :(

[@yogato1070]

I followed a video just like this 2 weeks or so ago, did everything the same way, added on screen text for the few I wanted, went on riva tuner and made the font a little larger, however when I started tarkov All it showed was my FPS. Right now im running an i5 9400k with a gtx 1660. Getting pretty outdated I know. The only difference was that I was told you didnt have to add the custom toggle, however I tried it with and without it. Any thoughts???

[@KoNine9]

I'm on a 12700k @4.8 GHz with a 3080 and 32gb ram. My gpu is max at 50% Vram is on 50% Ram is on 50% Cpu.. Some cores maximum is at 70% And I'm still getting between 70-120 fps. So why those lows? Is my cpu the bottle neck at 70%?

[@ZheIncFox]

Heya can you please explain with what software your record gameplay whilst MSI aterburner is displayed ? OBS fails with MSI afterburner active

[@klemintime1452]

I use OBS. The trick that I do to get it to capture is that I have MSI Afterburner hook on *after* the recording software captures the window. First I open the game, have OBS capture it, and *then* I open up MSI Afterburner. Let me know if this works!

[@sozimawlly]

hey, can you help me, i started monitoring my usage after watching this and i get bad fps on streets, but i had 70-90%gpu usage but only 40-50% cpu the whole time

[@0rbitalxs957]

It’s a single thread on your cpu, not total utilization. Check it thread by thread and you’ll see at least 1 at or approaching 100%

[@GuyNoodle]

I'm definitely GPU bound, I'm consistently at 97%+. Is this a bad thing? Or is this normal/fine if I get decent frames?

[@klemintime1452]

That's completely normal, its just the alternative to being CPU bound. If you're okay with the performance, just keep rocking it, man.

[@CarnageBros]

Hey dude, my rig has a i5-10400 cpu and a gtx 1080Ti and 32gb of ram any idea on what my problem would be especially when i see others with similar or lower parts run the game on a more consistent frame rate than what i can, most maps im lucky to be at a solid 80 or 90 and jumps around to even 60. all my settings are on low as well and even tried msi afterburners oc mode but yeah im out of ideas 😅

[@klemintime1452]

You're definitely CPU-bound there, and that's the reason why the FPS feels so inconsistent. I'd take a look at my process lasso guide from recently along with my CPU-bound settings guide to help! It wont be much, but it should help a little bit.

[@CarnageBros]

@@klemintime1452 legend, thank you so much

[@3limin8tor]

Man, I just love ur videos, im playin tarkov for so long now but i was so disappointed when i upgraded my pc to an i9 13900k on 5.8ghz on all p-cores with 32gb of 6400 ram and a 3080.. it still cannot reach the 100fps on streets on 1080p. and then i have a friend with an amd cpu which costs 60% of the cost of the intel and get the same frames.. i think dats the cache performance on amd cpus which is very good right? im curious if thats the whole "problem" here keep up the good work. your videos are so informative und different to always the same "HOw tO GeT 32424234+ FpS IN TaRKoV iNStNanTly (i promise)" bullshit!!!

[@klemintime1452]

Yeah, the 7800x3d's cache is simply an absolute slam dunk for gaming. You can think of that extra cache giving the CPU more room for data it needs for its logic, lessening the amount of time it needs to worry about swapping data out of it (and thus improving responsiveness and performance). They are absolutely crazy for Tarkov and sadly often get overshadowed by the dominance of people seeing the "i9" branding. Glad you like the videos though and thanks for watching them! I appreciate it more than you know :D

[@3limin8tor]

@@klemintime1452 thx for the answer. the thing is, i think i will still stay with intel because i know so many people, who switched to amd for that reason and after a few months they regret it because of stability with ram and temps.. heard so many of them have problems to even get an 6400 ram to constant 5000 without having the system to reboot multiple times on startup+ the limitited 85celcius on the cpu.. bluescreens everywhere. i think i prefer an all and everytime stable system over more fps in a not optimized game like tarkov

[@klemintime1452]

@@3limin8tor AMD has definitely gotten at least a bit more stable (as long as you have your bios updated after you build your PC). Thing is though, even with those lower RAM speeds, they are STILL trading blows with the i9s for gaming. Definitely users choice though, not to mention Intel still wins productivity for sure.

[@Elvgr]

Hello Klemintime and thank you for your videos! I have an i5 10400 and 3070, 32gb of ram. I am always on 30-45% cpu utilization and 40-45% gpu utilization. I try every setting, but can't change much. On streets inside building my frames drop to 30-40 max. And when I play with a full team, in a map like shoreline or customs, I can't hit 60 fps. I don't know what to do, probably my cpu and my old ram are the problem? Thank you

[@klemintime1452]

You're right on the money. Your CPU is definitely the reason why your FPS is so low. If you upgraded that you'd see substantial improvement. (I'd recommend upgrading motherboards too so that the CPU upgrade you can socket is worth your money)

[@Elvgr]

@@klemintime1452 thank you!

[@capt5656]

So, what do i do if all 6 of my poor little CPU cores are at 100%? 😅

[@klemintime1452]

Pray 😭 Seriously though, that simply means your CPU is being utilized to the brim (at least with the physical cores) and will definitely benefit from being upgraded.

[@Azakes]

So i have problem with tarkov, huge stutters. I have RTX 4090 and 7950x3d it's like from last pc format, so clear pc and only instaled drivers and have this strange stutters. It is iritating that Tarkov cant use more than 18% of cpu.

[@klemintime1452]

Most games cannot utilize 8 or (in your case) 16 cores for a game. I'm assuming the stutters might be from the game switching CCDs on your CPU though. I'd try using process lasso to force tarkov to run on threads 0-15 and see how that works!

ok.... this video is the biggest click bate ever.... it show u everytinh like nvidia..... but its not change anything....0 help... i spend like 2 hours for nothing

It's not going to help your performance- its to help you figure out what your bottleneck is. Knowing that will allow you to then make the right steps to address that given bottleneck.

I agree, it seems so easy but I tried this a couple weeks ago and all I could get to display was FPS, and it was also much lower than usual when i would press ctrl + ~ and type fps 1 or fps 2 in tarkov
