Hi there!

i decided to try out mastercomfig and i have tried the following presets: Very low, low, medium low, medium, medium high and high. When i am not active in game the fps is very stable and floats around 90-120 ish maybe a bit higher maybe a bit lower, however, when i move a few meters outside of spawn and try to engage in some sort of combat or assistance (healing someone as medic) the fps just instantly drops to like 7-10 fps ish. The fps drop occurs in intervals one after another with maybe like 5-10 seconds apart from each other and the fps stays at around 5-10 fps for maybe 5-10 seconds rendering the game fairly unplayable during this period of time. My question is now, what can i do to fix this issue that i am having? i am fairly certain that i have installed the config the right way but i am not sure at this point.

here are my PC specs:
CPU: AMD-A87600
GPU: Radeon R7
RAM: 16 GB DDR 3
Monitor: some Benq 60 Hz monitor

i sincerely hope that i have described my issue that i am having as thoroughly as possible and i apologize beforehand if i haven't done so and i hope that i have listed my relevant PC-specs. Please let me know if i have missed some relevant information in the post. Hope everyone who reads this will have a nice friday/weekend ! 😄

When downloading a new preset you have to delete the other ones

#

You have high, medium-high, medium, and very-low.
But only high is being used.

should i just clear the folder and redownload?

#

yeah you can clear out the mastercomfig files and redownload

Did that and i am currently in a casual game on dustbowl and i just realised that my ping spikes up to 160 ish at the same time as the fps drop occurs

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 10:58 PM

#

that ping spike is most likely a result of your game freezing

#

are you using a laptop?

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:01 PM

#

Aah i see well that makes sense. No i am on a desktop pc

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 11:01 PM

#

do you have a program that allows you to check the temperature of your CPU?

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:04 PM

#

Yeah i have msi afterburner installed

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 11:04 PM

#

could you open MSI afterburner and, while in game with these fps dips occurring, check to see what your CPU temperature is getting up to?

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:05 PM

#

Ok i will try that

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:23 PM

#

Ok so i tried to setup msi afterburner to check the temp in game and the temperature pretty much stays at 45-46°C and when the fps drop occurs the temperature only rises up a few degrees to around 47-49°C

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 11:37 PM

#

CPU temps, right?

#

not GPU

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:38 PM

#

Yes cpu temp

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 11:39 PM

#

does MSI show max temps

#

or does it only show current temps

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:42 PM

#

Msi only shows current temp

#

In game that is but outside it shows max temp

sly marlin Jul 27, 2023, 11:45 PM

#

how much CPU is being used while in-game?

radiant cobalt Jul 27, 2023, 11:54 PM

#

So before the fps drop the cpu usage is around 36% and when the fps drop occurs the cpu usge goes up to 40-58%

#

What's in your launch options?

#

Actually wait, what's your GPU usage?

radiant cobalt Jul 28, 2023, 12:55 AM

#

When the fps drop takes place the GPU usage goes to 0% (weirdly enough) and right after the drop it goes up to 100% and the down to around 40-55%ish maybe so it fluctuates alot

#

Gpu temp is the same as cpu temp aswell
