Problems with fixing issues, particularly in Mafia 3
Hi all so im pritty new to pc gaming and cant get my head around resolution settings, whats good whats bad. Most of the games ive installed are automatically optimimised by Geforce experience. However my biggest issue is with Mafia 3. Just installed it today and no matter what resolution i set the game is choppy as hell. Overall im not getting good stable graphics with any game. Here is my rig setup: Intel Core i5 6600K (overclocked from 3.5ghz to 4.5ghz at 1.260v) Corsair DDR4 16gb ram (2x8gb) set to x.m.p mode running 3000mhz Gigabyte GTX 1070 Foundation Edition 8gb graphics Evga 650w G2 Gold edition psu. (currently switched to eco mode) Samsung Evo 500gb SSD WD 2TB blue HDD (for random files, games are all installed to the ssd) Asus Maximus Viii Alpha Motherboard Corsair H80i AIO water cooler for cpu. Samsung 4k 40" tv as a monitor as unfortunately i can use both a gaming monitor and a tv as their is no room. I have installed the most recent driver form nvidia which is designed to optimise the Mafia 3 game but it doesnt show up on the list of games with nvidia experience even after re scanning the pc. Was thinking of OC the gpu but don't know if it will make a huge difference? Is it just the game? It just feels like ive spent a lot of money on this build and yet it struggles playing modern games. Thanks
Not too long, around 20 minutes, mainly since the game didn’t work well at any setting I tried. It felt either terrible or great, but super slow.
You may receive a refund on Steam if you complete the process within two hours.
I believe the frame rate cap plays a role here. I've been testing it (maximizing DSR at double 1080p) and noticed some choppiness. However, I think the 60fps update for Hangar around level 12 will improve performance. Right now I'm using a GTX 1070 at its default settings, getting roughly 20-25 FPS at 4K with DSR. It seems the 1070 might not be powerful enough for this game at that resolution, so lowering settings or trying to boost the GPU could help.
