Hey guys, I'm having problems with the game optimization, I usually play with DLSS Quality + FG 2x + All max graphics, it runs well, performing in 160-180 fps, but the stuttering is the problem, mainly in Old Town region, the game starts to stutter a lot, from a high fps to a low a lot of times. I tried to limit FPS to 120 or less, but the stutter proceeds.
My specs:
RTX 5070 TI
i9 14900k
1x16gb DDR5

Ram issue, single channel 16gb is the most probable reason, also what 5070 model, that can help alot as certain models come with better VRam amounts and are overclocked from the factory
nocturne fog
My 5070 TI is a Gigabyte one, 16gb Vram and it's the OC model
But I think the DLSS was the reason, I tried to turn off and then turn on and the game feels better
Also I activated the Virtual Memory, so the system allocate all the ram to the game
hearty palm
Uhm, not sure u know this but system ram shouldnt be used heavily for video ram replacement btw
Since system ram is slower and causes stutters
nocturne fog
So what is the better option for me? At the moment I don't have money for more 16gb lol
Maybe lower the graphics?
hearty palm
Well, u have substantial vram so my initial guess was wrong since I presumed u were running an 8-12 gb card
Legit just look online for reccomended settings for ur cpu and card or try troubleshooting urself
nocturne fog
But I really think that was a game bug, considering I turned off the DLSS and the game stops 70% of the stuttering
nocturne fog
Yeah, I turned on that again and the game is running well
but there’s still some stuttering
hearty palm
Might have just been an error during changing lol, but of you notice it’s better without dlss keep dlss off
nocturne fog
and my configuration is good, but the ram is not enough i think
i solve the game bug but now my ram is stuttering the system
nocturne fog
Might have just been an error during changing lol, but of you notice it’s better...
the game was very bad before turning off the dlss, but when i "reseted" the dlss, the game is running well u know?
nocturne fog
No, your system ram shouldnt be getting used if u got 16gb vram
no, i'm saying about the ram, not vram
hearty palm
Again could just be a simple reboot of the setting fixing it
Yeah I know
U have 16gb vram
Even if ur on high settings
Ur vram shouldn’t be getting used so badly that it uses system ram
However my inital guess WAS ram due to all the zombie behaviours and the fact you’re gonna be on single channel 16gb
Could just be a bad mix of system ram unable to handle zombies and their behaviours and dlss goofing around
But yeah the official techland website states ur gonna want around 32gb ram for ultra graphics settings
nocturne fog
I entered in the game just to see, the game is using just 7300mb of vram

I think it's 4k, no?
hearty palm
Thats aight, is that in a building like town hall or outside
hearty palm
Might wanna turn that down then
nocturne fog
Thats aight, is that in a building like town hall or outside
Outside, but i can go to the town if you want
hearty palm
As ur screen only shows 1080 using any resolution higher than that just wastes resources

yeah, i was just testing the performance
cause the gpu is new
i changed from a 2070 super
oh, i forgot to say, if my english is not right is because i'm not fluent
hearty palm
Thats fine
But yeah 16gb system ram may be the issue
Try troubleshoot exactly what conditions cause the stutters
If its near a large group of zombies, it’d be system ram, if its when near intense lighting it’d be a gpu problem
nocturne fog
yeah, it's alright with the vram in the town too
nocturne fog

that was useful
thanks
hearty palm
So clearly u cant see zombies there but ur gpu is clearly running well
nocturne fog
so yeah, i will try to upgrade the system ram anytime
hearty palm
So probably ram issue
nocturne fog
it's the last thing i need to do in my desktop
hearty palm
Try get the exact same model of ram
nocturne fog
Try get the exact same model of ram
that's the problem, i bought an ram that don't sells anymore lol
nocturne fog
What model if I may ask?
It's from my country, Pichau the name
I didn't bought this standalone
hearty palm
Oh,
nocturne fog
I bought an upgrade that comes with CPU, motherboard and memory
hearty palm
So it’s a smaller known brand
nocturne fog
So i was not very stupid, i didn't had option lol
nocturne fog
So it’s a smaller known brand
Exacly
I will try to buy some 2x16 from corsair or something
hearty palm
If I were you i’d try save for a more known brand, if anything try go for 5600 transfer 2 x 16 gb sticks
They should be cheaper since lower transfer speed but still more optimal than ur current setup
nocturne fog
If I were you i’d try save for a more known brand, if anything try go for 5600 t...
Yeah, mine is 5600
hearty palm
Also u know the 1-3 2-4 rule right?
nocturne fog
If I buy a stick with the same quantity and 5600 it's alright or that should be exacly the same?
nocturne fog
Also u know the 1-3 2-4 rule right?
Yeah
hearty palm
Well since they’d be different brands im not too sure
nocturne fog
dual channel right?
hearty palm
Since pichau isnt a brand i’ve heard of either
I dont know what model of ram chip they use nor if they are compatible with other brands
hearty palm
Till now

oh, ok
hearty palm
Gah dayum

my country sucks
