[rugged prawn]

My PC has the level of detail set to low, I think, or maybe to short. I’m not really sure how it works. Can someone help me change it? It happens in every game. I already tried from the NVIDIA panel and with other tricks, and I still couldn’t fix it. The game is set to the highest resolution

Up close it looks fine, but when I get nearer the texture improves. From far away it looks really bad

[still nova]

off topic but i love this

Disable game optimisation in the Nvidia app

[rugged prawn]

no changes

[supple crescent]

Make sure all changes are reverted by clicking the "Revert" button and making sure it is not automatically optimised by checking the settings in the Nvidia app and disabling "Automatically optimise games...."

[rugged prawn]

It happens in all my games; I’m showing you this one because it’s where it’s most noticeable. I already tried what you told me and it didn’t work.

and that´s my config on the nvidia app

I just restored all the settings in the NVIDIA app and did what you told me, I left everything like that and nothing has changed.

Missing information:

• CPU
• Storage devices
• Memory

(Where is the game installed on? Do you know the types of your storage devices? Do you know how much RAM you have? How many slots are being taken? What is their speed?)

(You can find all that in Task Manager > Performance)

[stoic gorge]

"All games" - please note that if they are "games" within "Roblox" it's considered one game

This looks like a game bug than any performance issue

but do mention these missing info if any

Also try a game outside of Roblox

[rugged prawn]

dbd, marvel rivals, resident evil, all games i play

[stoic gorge]

Resident Evil

this game shouldn't have visible pop in at all

Yeah fill in the missing info

[rugged prawn]

ssd, 16 ram, rtx 3050, gen 11 i5-11400f

[stoic gorge]

Full model name of the SSD?

Also, "16 RAM" only tells us the capacity

[rugged prawn]

Sorry, I haven't played Resident Evil in a long time so I don't remember well. But it does happen to me in Alien Isolation, for example.

[stoic gorge]

Slots used and speed?

[rugged prawn]

I don't know, where do I see all that?

it´s that?

[stoic gorge]

You might want to use CrystalDiskInfo and see what it says

[austere viper]

Use the following benchmarks and monitoring tools to determine if your PC is performing as it should.

Benchmarks
3DMark
Black Myth: Wukong Benchmark Tool
Cinebench 2024
Cinebench R23 (TechSpot download)
CrystalDiskMark

Stability
OCCT
Memtest86
Memtest86+
Please note that these two software are similar but distinct to each other

Monitoring
CrystalDiskInfo
HWINFO

Information
CPU-Z
GPU-Z

It didn't happen to me before, so I don't think it's a problem with my PC. It must be some setting in the Nvidia app, but I have no idea.

[stoic gorge]

Unfortunately, the NVIDIA App cannot affect loading or LoDs in any way outside of changing game settings as part of game optimisation. If auto optimize is off...

[rugged prawn]

oh

then I don't know why

I formatted my PC and everything, but nothing changed.

[stoic gorge]

How did you "format" your PC?

Also fill in the missing information

[rugged prawn]

in the config of windows

[rugged prawn]

sorry, what missing information?

i don´t speak much english, sorry

[stoic gorge]

Assuming "Reset this PC" was used, that basically didn't count

[stoic gorge]

We still don't know your:
SSD Model. You might want to use CrystalDiskInfo, linked here: https://crystalmark.info/en/software/crystaldiskinfo/ to check what is your SSD exactly. Hopefully it's not one of these "scrubbed names"

RAM slots and speed. Open Task Manager (right click your task bar), then go to the Performance tab.

Then click "Memory"

Show the contents of the right side, with the big graph and lots of text at the bottom.

[rugged prawn]

my SSD it´s not this?

[stoic gorge]

In case there's more information to be had

[stoic gorge]

Now click "Memoria"

And show the contents there

[rugged prawn]

this?

[stoic gorge]

Looks fine, so the remaining thing to check is that SSD

While we're at it do you mind if you got CrystalDiskMark (different from CrystalDiskInfo) and ran a benchmark there?

https://crystalmark.info/en/software/crystaldiskinfo/

(It's somewhere in the same page)

[rugged prawn]

idk how to use it but i´ll try

here?

[stoic gorge]

Yeah but you want the normal version...

that one is specifically made for REALLY old PCs

[rugged prawn]

here?

what this app do?

[stoic gorge]

https://crystalmark.info/en/software/crystaldiskmark/

You went to the wrong page it seems

(I've corrected the link in the bot. Thanks for reminding.)

[supple crescent]

@stoic gorge This is a Crucial P3 SSD, QLC Dram-less SSD

On any QLC SSD, if you fill up more than half, it will be slower than a hard drive

[stoic gorge]

the only exception being that really new WD SanDisk blue but unfortunately that one's probably still rare

but either way

@rugged prawnWere you downloading ANYTHING while playing?

Browser downloads, Steam background downloads, installs, ANYTHING. Even a long file copy.

[supple crescent]

This is painful

[stoic gorge]

you're still getting SATA SSD speeds here

QLC can get much worse

Either way, back on topic, time to check if any of these states were true

[rugged prawn]

nop

[rugged prawn]

A question, could the problem be with my monitor and not the PC?
