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

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.

    @NervousAndPotato With a gpu like that hes better off having low texture budget for more fps.Increasing the streaming budget eats fps and messes with the framepacing of the game when looking around
  • I think setting it under VRAM limit will not cause any drops. Texture streaming budget saves textures in VRAM in order to reduce possible buffers. But some say keeping it at 2GB gives the best FPS. I can't go over 2GB so I can't give you my personal experience, just giving info within my knowledge. He will get no harm from trying. You may be right though. 🙂

    Okay I mean I have 4gb perhaps I set it to 2gb and give it a try.
