The new 4080 model struggles with low frame rates in Persona 5 Royal.
You're facing an ongoing issue and struggling to understand the data you're seeing. Let's work through it together.
Combine these ideas for a fun approach. 1. Make sure you're using slot 1 on your MB, then reposition the card, check for GPU droop, and clean the PC if needed. 2. If slot 1 still causes problems, swap it with slot 2 just to see what happens. Remember, many games lower their frame rate in title screens.
Consider trying the FurMark GPU burner test. Check for frame drops or throttling, as this might indicate a heat problem. To be honest, my very first 3070 super I purchased was faulty, so I had to get a replacement. After completing the stress test, you should be able to determine if the issue is hardware-related.
This appears to be a limitation built into the game that isn't compatible with your hardware or drivers. 4080 is a strong card, but it's still emerging technology—bugs could remain until further fixes are made. I faced a similar problem in an indie title and reached out to Nvidia, who confirmed it was a recognized issue they were actively addressing for the game.
It seems the assessment is quite strong. It’s probably not your system’s main problem—more likely a driver, game compatibility, or the game’s code itself.
Another helpful tip is to turn off the built-in display settings on your PC. This lets you focus solely on the graphics card performance, but try playing a couple of other applications to check for any issues.
Good news, the game runs smoothly at 60-90fps in CP77 with ray tracing off and DLSS enabled. There was a crash during the early Nomad intro where my PC restarted itself, which I haven’t been able to recreate yet. I’m attributing it to Cyberpunk issues. CP77 feels like the Crysis of today, and I was let down when my 2060 needed low settings and high DLSS to play it.
