Huge frame drops with laptop i7 4700mq, gtx 780m

Hi there, I get huge frame drops in some areas like from 130+fps to 40fps. In the plane depending where I look at 22-30 fps. System: i7 4700mq gtx 780m 4gb 16gb ram win10 I already tried...

25fps in the dropship is pretty normal, for your system of course. You can reduce distance scaling through config as you do but it might not improve your performance that much.

What are your CPU&GPU usages?

Do you know the name in the videoconfig for distance scaling? Didn`t find it.
CPU never reaches 100%, GPU indeed reaches 98-99% when the huge drops happen but also if drops weren`t that huge.

Should be "setting.r_lod_switch_scale" but I'm not sure. Have you tried to optimize through Nvidia Control Panel?

  No, I treid this with different values 0 - 0.6
  Recently I noticed that I have a really deep and sharp view from the plane as if the game zoomed out and with pretty good details. Even with a custom resolution of 960x540.

    Also my gpu only uses about 1250mb from my 4gb memory.
