X3 mode doesn't triple fps ? Am i doing something wrong
Here is what i have / did, tested on Resident evil 3 Remake
Monitor refresh rate is 143.855hz, I limited my FPS with RTSS to 47.95 fps which is exactly 1/3rd of refresh rate.
After scaling with LS and using X3 mode i only get 95 fps tested with nVidia fps counter.
If i do x2 mode i get normal 120~ FPS.
My PC is able to run RE3R fully without LS to a consistent 100+ fps on its own, so its not a hardware limitation in that regard
What i wonder is why is my X3 mode not tripling my 47.9 FPS instead it just doubles it to 95 FPS, can anyone help or if I'm doing something wrong

what's your gpu? can you confirm if your gpu isn't maybe using close to or 100% usage when you're scaling with 3x, because 3x is way more gpu-intensive than 2x

my GPU Is GTX 1660 TI

#

its not reaching 100% according to nVidia performance box, not even close

I dont use scaling myself i only used frame gen mod, does that make any difference ?

#

all of my results were form just using LSFG 2.1 and mode to X3

it's normally no problem, but for this test it's necessary

Ok i discovered my issue now while testing out, apparently i had created another game profile for RE3R which was stuck at X2 mode and now i changed it to X3 and its working just as intended
So problem solved for me right now, thank you so much for trying to help out! We can close this support chat! 👍
