At the start of the game I hit as low as 50 frames per second, and after landing I rarely exceed 100 fps, except in empty spaces or when looking up. In combat scenes it drops to around 60-80 fps. This player uses a simpler rig and is reaching nearly 180 fps...

I keep everything on the lowest game settings, yet I’m having more trouble than him even though he seems to have everything set to low. He appears to be a casual gamer, and casual players usually don’t prioritize performance. They tend to focus more on quality than speed.

I’ve recently installed the latest drivers. I’m not very experienced with PC hardware, but this seems inconsistent. Even in CSGO I rarely surpass 200 fps (though I don’t really mind that much). I’ve owned this PC for nearly four years, but I still doubt it’s due to age. My setup is almost identical to the one shown in the YouTube video:

GPU – GTX 1070
CPU – Intel® Core™ i7-6700 @ 3.40GHz, 3401 MHz, 4 cores, 8 logical processors
RAM – 16 GB (no specific model)
Motherboard – unknown
System Model – Alienware Aurora R5

Hey! Make sure to verify your temperatures. Use an app like HWInfo to monitor them during gameplay, and share a screenshot of both your CPU and GPU temps.

I didn't know how to take a screenshot while the game was in fullscreen. I played the whole game in Windows mode, and the CPU stayed around 64-65% while the GPU was at 69-70%.

No, no, no, mate. You must correct this first. The capacity doesn't compensate for the missing memory bandwidth the CPU requires from dual channel.

I'm just clarifying if you meant to purchase another RAM module. Let me know if you need further details.

That or a 2x 8GB model. I can't assure you it won't cause any issues, though; the memory has been tested and verified to function as advertised.

Temperatures, not usage. Maintain HWinfo open in the background alt tab and capture a screenshot.

I didn't intend to mention percent. My previous statement was about 64-65C, while the GPU was running at 68-70C.
