capped at 60 FPS with 144 ha monitor

[golden sail]

check settings also try clicking it on your taskbar instead of tabbing into it if you haven't already. for some reason some games run better after doing that

[fierce crystal]

In the game it self everything appears to be fine . Clicking the game and Alt tabbing doesn’t appear to do anything unfortunately

[golden sail]

what about enabling v-sync?

[dry cedar]

v-sync causes the fps limit

[golden sail]

it could force the fps limit to 144

[fierce crystal]

unfortunately still the same issue.

[golden sail]

hey my name's trey and i got a basket ball game tomorrow!

have you tried looking up your issue? "fivem frames stuck at 60"

[fierce crystal]

lol . But yes I have . Only thing I can find was someone with a 60hz monitor being capped at 60 fps

[fierce crystal]

Any other tips by chance?

[golden sail]

idk reinstall fivem

or change the fps cap in a config file somewhere

[empty leaf]

can fiveM support more fps

i worded this badly

does the fiveM / ingame gta havea fps limit slider or something

[fierce crystal]

No . I was just running 144 yesterday but I noticed some how my computer got infected with a Trojan and I wiped it and ever since then this has been the case .

[rugged oak]

Is the monitor set to 144hz

[rose ocean]

there are games that are capped at 60 fps by steam as well

[barren wigeon]

unsure, i play fivem on a 75hz monitor and i get much more fps

[fierce crystal]

yes

I checked via the nvidia control panel and my graphics settings

[fierce crystal]

Fivem isnt ran through steam

ig im wiping my whole computer once again

[rugged oak]

@fierce crystal is vsync on?

[dry cedar]

what GPU?

if nvidia try opening nvidia control panel and try making custom resolution. may even get monitor to OC at 165hz

[fierce crystal]

1660 ti

[fierce crystal]

No I tried to turn it on and that didn’t work

[dry cedar]

did you conned to crrect and capable port?

see if monitor controls have vsync disabled

[dry cedar]

is it working?

(resolved?)

[fierce crystal]

seeing rn

[dry cedar]

'ell it's 00:20 now I will now sleep if it don't work someone else tip will work. CYA

[fierce crystal]

ok

I noticed that I am on a VGA display , what does this mean? I also noticed when I swapped out my HDMI cord i was only able to receive 60 hz . When I went to graphics settings in settings I only found 120 was available.

What could be the reason for this? ^

Is VGA recommended? or should I switch to a real HDMI

I tried the normal HDMI and I'm still only experiencing 60 . It was just working two days ago but when my computer started acting slow I updated the driver and then it was even more slow . I tried to switch drives and etc , at this point do I just have to upgrade my gpu?

Either a 3060 mini or a 6630xt or whatever its called

I'm tired of trying to resolve this bs . Nobody else knows what the issue is either 😦

[golden sail]

i don't think vga supports over 60 hz. switch to hdmi or display port if you can

[fierce crystal]

I tried it with a regular hdmi and still same issue .

[golden sail]

did you reset the refresh rate after?

[fierce crystal]

yes

still only getting 60 fps

[rugged oak]

What gpu do you have? @fierce crystal

[fierce crystal]

1660 ti

[rugged oak]

That has a vga port on it?

[fierce crystal]

yes ig so cuz i had a vga cord plugged into it

i'll send a pic

it was saying in my nvidia control panel that the monitor was connected via a VGA port

[rugged oak]

That’s not vga

[fierce crystal]

I just checked again and now its saying its connected via "pc display"

idk wtf is going on bruh

[haughty zenith]

You need to go learn what each different type of cable is lol. It's difficult to help when you think that that is VGA.

[fierce crystal]

I know what VGA is . I was going off of what I first say in my nvidia control panel.

It said "Connected Via VGA Display " I opened it again and I could swear on everything lol

[golden sail]

that's display port

[little onyx]

Nvm

[golden sail]

you try updating your drivers?

[fierce crystal]

Yes I ddued as well

[haughty zenith]

What cables have you tried so far?

[golden sail]

if his monitor can go to 144hz it's not a cable issue

[haughty zenith]

It could be a cable issue

[fierce crystal]

I’ve tried 3 different cables let me send pictures .

[little onyx]

Updating drivers/checking ingame settings (max fps cap)/display settings

Might be a you problem 😎

Maybe check ur settings of the display itself not on your system

[haughty zenith]

@fierce crystal Open your Windows settings, click Display, and scroll down to Advanced Display. Click on that. What does it say there?

[little onyx]

Doubt its a cable issue some ppl on here

[haughty zenith]

Should look something like this.

[golden sail]

that's hdmi

[haughty zenith]

You have no idea the sheer number of people that use crappy DP and HDMI cables that max out at 60.

[fierce crystal]

So two other hdmis

[little onyx]

They said it worked before

[haughty zenith]

Are those HDMI 1.0 or HDMI 2.0?

[golden sail]

wouldn't you get a black screen running 144hz then?

[fierce crystal]

And same issue

[haughty zenith]

No. Some cables only transmit 60hz, even if you set everything correctly.

[fierce crystal]

Not sure

[haughty zenith]

Send a screenshot of this window.

[little onyx]

Im sorry what

[golden sail]

my b i thought if a cable couldn't handle it then it would break ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[little onyx]

My pc also shuts down when it can go over my ingame 60 fps cap

[golden sail]

monitors do that when you set it to a refresh rate it can't handle

[little onyx]

Bruh

He had it on 144 before and usually setting it above what a display can handle either doesnt work as its not an option in windows or you just dont see any change from display max refresh

[golden sail]

nvidia control panel moment

[little onyx]

Man u looked into your games if any are caped at 60 fps? It might be running in background and rubbing off onto your system

[fierce crystal]

Yes I was getting like 50 FPS on Csgo and 60 on fivem

I think it’s a Trojan that’s still some how on my computer after a full factory reset

[haughty zenith]

But could you set the framerate higher in game?

[little onyx]

But did they have it set in their settings to 50/60 fps max?

[haughty zenith]

Many games have a little setting that lets you change what framerate you run it at

[fierce crystal]

In csgo I didn’t change anything

In the lobby I was getting 300 FPS

In fivem the only option they have is vsync and that is off

[little onyx]

There should def be a setting like "max fps" or "target fps"

[fierce crystal]

I can load it up and show you

[haughty zenith]

It doesn't matter what the FPS indicator says, because it's always going to go up to 300 when not under load

[fierce crystal]

Ok let me check for csgo if I had an FPS limit

[haughty zenith]

I don't think CSGO has that in the menu actually

[little onyx]

https://docs.fivem.net/docs/client-manual/console-commands/

[haughty zenith]

Doing it through a console command won't exactly help, because it'll let him set it to whatever he wants...it won't stop him if he doesn't like it

[little onyx]

Try setting your fps manually in fivem if it started there

[haughty zenith]

It'll just set the vsync threshold higher

@fierce crystal What happens if you install a game with a framerate limit option, like StarCraft 2 or something?

[little onyx]

Ig still worth a try imo

[haughty zenith]

That's a good one to test...and it's free

[fierce crystal]

All I’ve tried was fivem and csgo

Fivem is the main game I play and csgo cuz that’s what was recommended

[little onyx]

I recommend u try the command, the way fivem works it might be in the background holding back fps that you dont want it to

Might've been changed to 60 fps with an update or similar

So now u have to change it back manually

[fierce crystal]

what command is it?

[little onyx]

Idk

Sent u a link u can find it there probably

[fierce crystal]

Nope , only two relatively related to it is a fps counter in the corner , or a display which shows fps ping etc

[fierce crystal]

[fierce crystal]

ok let me see.

[fierce crystal]

the two videos I just skimmed through and none of those are what we are looking for. One is capping fps via the nvidia control panel and the other I have already tried.

[little onyx]

Wait 2 videos?

[haughty zenith]

Like I said...try it with Starcraft 2....

[little onyx]

How to limit

The second one is short and shows exactly what you would be looking for

If that dont work I bet its something with the driver or the gpu itself

Or like I said its some monitor setting

[dry cedar]

still now resolved?

[fierce crystal]

I thought it was resolved when I reset my cmos battery but its not.

[dry cedar]

using HDMI?

what is the resolution of monitor with refreshrate?

[fierce crystal]

This is me in the air only getting 50 fps with all my graphics turned down alot. (top left)

[fierce crystal]

Yes

[fierce crystal]

1920x1080 144hz

[dry cedar]

GPU?

[fierce crystal]

1660 ti

Not just my game thats being weird , it's lowkey my whole computer.

[golden sail]

"just buy a new one" /s

[fierce crystal]

lol

I'm looking at a new graphics card if I dont get a resolution here soon . One of my buddys repairs computers but its an arm and a fortune to get that with him.

[dry cedar]

does 1660 ti with HDMI 1.4 supports that resolution i guess yes.

[golden sail]

could try linux

[dry cedar]

did you install drivers correctly?

[fierce crystal]

Yes

[dry cedar]

or did clean install of drivers?

[fierce crystal]

i ddued at first then I reinstalled

[dry cedar]

what even task amanger is saying for GPU performance, try sending us screen shots

[fierce crystal]

I clean installed my gpu driver

[dry cedar]

and under performance tab?

[golden sail]

rip vram

[dry cedar]

well I guess your game heavy on VRAM so you may not get the FPS

[golden sail]

if it really is somehow the virus it shouldn't run on linux

[fierce crystal]

What's the difference between linux and windows? I'm willing to switch I just dont want to switch to something that wont give me what I'm looking for.

[golden sail]

they're... quite literally built different

[dry cedar]

is your monitor getting registered as 144hz?

[golden sail]

it's a bit more of a pain to get stuff working on linux (depending on what it is)

[fierce crystal]

I'm either thinking some how my gpu is broken or it's in my SSD . Which I may be buying soon if I do switch to linux and it doesnt work.

[fierce crystal]

Yes .

[golden sail]

also you (mostly) don't install stuff from the internet like you do on windows

get virtal box. give it a try. it'll run a little slow but you'll get to test out linux

[dry cedar]

well I guess your problem is solved.

[fierce crystal]

How do I go about installing items then?

[fierce crystal]

Going with linux?

[dry cedar]

no,

[golden sail]

the app store your package manager

[dry cedar]

if your pc can see that monitor as 144Hz I think you can expect game to be heavy

try mods/lowered settings

[fierce crystal]

It was never like this before however.... Yes I know , technology is quite a pain in the but sometimes and decides not to work .

[fierce crystal]

I'll give you a screenshot here in a bit of how lowered my graphics are. Everything but the essential buildings in the game and even guns are derendered for my sake.

[dry cedar]

well IDK wht game you running

[fierce crystal]

Fivem

[dry cedar]

no problem i'll wait

[fierce crystal]

How all the buildings are blocky etc

[golden sail]

you playing roblox?

[fierce crystal]

LMFAO i told you bruh I got this quality down heavy

[dry cedar]

and taskamanger screenshots?

[golden sail]

man's playing rec room

[fierce crystal]

Want me to send again?

[dry cedar]

task manager, this one, yes please

[dry cedar]

and performance tab? I wanted to see performance tab GPU

[fierce crystal]

Okay

Have to load into the server again.

[dry cedar]

well if you do that it will make thing more cler to me

[fierce crystal]

?

[dry cedar]

you sending screenshots or not?

[fierce crystal]

yes im loading into the server lol

slowly but surely

[dry cedar]

ah, what you mean server?

what PC's taskmanager you screenshot earlier

[fierce crystal]

mine

[golden sail]

you have a vram leak?

[fierce crystal]

What does this mean?

[golden sail]

a ram leak is when something just fills your ram. vram is the ram on your gpu (video ram)

this to me looks like a ram leak

could totally be wrong tho

[dry cedar]

well this game is not made well to utilize max of hardware.

so you may get capped.

also you said you have vsync, is it enabled?

[fierce crystal]

Hmm

[fierce crystal]

No , i have tried to enable it previously and I did not experience a difference.

[golden sail]

it also reaches this sooooooo

[dry cedar]

sorry I mean Gsync

is tht enabled?

[fierce crystal]

My specs dont offer gsync

As I did say though I have reached 120-144 fps almost at a daily until the past 3 or more days .

[dry cedar]

can this be artifacting?

[fierce crystal]

I'm confused.

[dry cedar]

I guess faulty card. you started to see artifacting,

sorry but I guess end of line for the GPU.

try other GPU if you can before

[fierce crystal]

I dont have any . Besides my brothers which doesnt fit in my case.

What do you recommend upgrading to when I upgrade? I have about 700 watts for my powersupply so preferably a GPU that will not make me upgrade

[golden sail]

intel arc kinda /s kinda worth trying

[dry cedar]

well I'm off from here.

this problem is resolved?

[fierce crystal]

Not really "resolved" lol but I know what next step is from here ig.

[fierce crystal]

huh?

[golden sail]

intel arc gpu

[dry cedar]

anything if at msrp

[golden sail]

it's so new it's probably gonna break a little

[golden sail]

rtx 40 series

[dry cedar]

donot intel arc that direct X support is too much to digest they must relaunch intel arc GPUs

[golden sail]

if people don't try it and find bugs it will never work

[dry cedar]

never buy first generation of everything.

[golden sail]

40series is not first gen and it's buggy af.... it's not just first generation

[fierce crystal]

I’ve heard a lot about the 6650xt any thoughts ?

[dry cedar]

when 40 or even nvidia is buggy in which world you live @golden sail

snap back to reality

[golden sail]

what are you asking me?

[dry cedar]

that are game developer issues not GPUs

[golden sail]

sorry it's mainly driver issues. since they can't develop good drivers

[fierce crystal]

?

[golden sail]

amd cards are good

[golden sail]

watch some reviews and comparisons on it idk

i don't remember with amd's naming scheme

[dry cedar]

hey donot expect them to make a already performant GPU to just get more performance with just drivers

also do clean driver installs

[golden sail]

it's not that at all. the drivers themselves are buggy making the cards perform worse in the first place.

[golden sail]

it is a clean driver install

[dry cedar]

when did this last time happened?

also did you let windows to install your drivers?

[golden sail]

linux 😈 but also had this issue on windows, from geforce experience

see (https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1030639775297851442)

mind this is on a 30 series card which has been out for some time

it's not just new releases that are buggy

all this to say. give the intel arc gpus a shot if you're willing to work out some teething issues

not to mention they've made integrated graphics for quite some time

[dry cedar]

ah yes, my theory is tht, some buggy windows security update screwed up many display adapters

this may be 3-4 days back in release.

[fierce crystal]

Okay appreciate you guys. Ima go do my research on either a 30 series the 6650xt if not different or an intel arc Z

[turbid field]

Sorry I couldn't solve it lol

[golden sail]

multiple updates had this issue. on multiple versions of windows (10/11)

[turbid field]

I'm bad at gpu

[dry cedar]

My teach laptop is dead, on monday I have to install win 10 and drivers

[fierce crystal]

You’re all good no worries.
