Hey, I've had an Nvidia RTX 4060 , and since then I can't play Foundation anymore, the whole game lags. Only when I press my Windows key, for example, or have a window in the foreground, Foundation runs without a problem, so I can't play.

i saw in another thread that someone had their monitor refresh rate set too high, for example 150hz which was causing the lag. worth a look

i have a 4060 too, could you decribe what is happening a bit more please? what fps is the game running at?

#

im getting about 35-40 fps at 150 pops when looking at my city centre

It is Hard to explain, the Nvidia app told me it has 62Fps, but all of the game is lagging. My Citizen walks like a movie with 2 fps ...

#

i can take a look into a forest, but if i show the city, with my citizen, it lags.

#

I just tried to record the stutters in the game with a video, but there are no stutters to be seen in the video. The residents walk normally without jumping 5 meters on the screen.

try enabling half 1/2 vsync, or try frame cap to 30fps

#

if your game is in background, it plays smooth?.. strange. do you see difference in gpu/cpu utilization during these 2 conditions?

#

game in focus vs running in background

Technically fullscreen is borderless windowed mode, just gotta tweak the mouse capture more or less

I have a 4080 and I am in same boat the game is unplayable.

I am encountering a similar issue with FPS performance. I have Nvidia 4080 card and have tried doing a clean reinstall of the graphics drivers as well as clearing the steam download cache - there has been no improvement. In addition to those two suggested fixes, I have also adjusted the quality level all the way to low with still the same problem, as well as disabling vsync.
I have found something odd that may be helpful. When I alt-tab context back to windows the game runs perfectly on the other monitor as soon as I return focus to the game the FPS halts to sub 15 fps. It's making the game unplayable and really disappointing. All my other games are running perfectly so I am reluctant to reinstall Windows as suggested in another thread - I hope the game developers are prioritizing this issue.
