Rust struggles with low frame rates and frequent lag spikes.
Rust struggles with low frame rates and frequent lag spikes.
You're experiencing performance drops on your Ryzen 5 5500 with 16GB RAM and an RTX 2070 when running at low settings. It sounds like your GPU is struggling under load, possibly due to high frame rates or background processes. Checking for updates, closing unnecessary apps, and ensuring your drivers are current might help. If the issue persists, consider testing with lower settings or a different GPU.
Do you have any additional details? Please share your CPU and GPU usage stats. Aim for your GPU to stay above 95% consistently, though no game is ideal. If you're not using a FPS limiter and your GPU isn't heavily strained, the restriction likely comes from another source. Also, confirm you have sufficient memory to avoid relying on pagefile usage.
