Same issue on all views, the GPU is just not being pulled. I can even turn on DLSS and it doesn't change.
Only getting 60-70% GPU usage when game is running.
I will admit that the framerate is better on bumper cam, over 100, but I am still only getting 60% GPU usage.
When the game spins up the GPU to 100% the frame jump drastically. This happens when I pause the game, or momentarily when the race starts. After that the GPU usage drops again and the frame rate drops with it.
Again DLSS, lower settings, nothing can get it to draw the power of the 4090.
I think it's a 40 series driver issue, as @JG-skinny-racer 3080 doesn't have this issue.
Honestly, for €49.99 it is very good, I have not had very high expectations, but the optimization on PC is a disaster, I have a 11700k paired with an RTX 4070, 32GB 3600Mhz and the game installed on an NVMe and for some unknown reason, The GPU is not used at 100%, it always runs around 45~65% usage. There is a lot of stuttering and the FPS sometimes drops below 60FPS due to low GPU usage. Please fix the optimization, this is not the time to give away our money. Thanks and regards.
I had this problem (caused by my usb pedals csl elite loadcell v1). my fix for now was connect the pedals directly on the wheel base.
My framerate is quite a bit slower than I would expect and because of this I have been playing around with settings to improve it.
I am playing at 1440p, tried going from ultra preset to very low preset and there is barely any difference in performance.
Ultra @1440p gets me about 70-80fps with dips to 50-60 on most rallies, some rallies like monte carlo drop to 30-40.
Very low @1440p gets me up to about 120fps with dips to 80 ish.
After the new patch the stability of my fps seems to have improved, however the performance itself hasn't.
And now i have seen why.
Using HWINFO64 I have now noticed that my GPU utilization does not go over 60% while driving using the ultra preset.
In the menus it goes up to 70%.
PC specs:
Asus Tuf Gaming x570-pro
AMD ryzen 7 5800X3D
Sapphire RX 7900XTX Nitro+
32GB 3600MHz cl16
game installed on 1TB Samsung 980Pro
weird how people are getting very different experiences.
For me, the game seems to scale pretty well in terms of performance when using DLSS vs native. The weird thing i get is very poor picture quality on anything apart from DLSS. Native with ciinematic AA and x16 AF looks terrible compared to the upscaled DLSS image.
also whilst i don't think the presets are particularly well optimised (some settings don't really impact performance and so don't need changing) there is again good scaling. The most impactful settings appear to be car reflections, shadows, mirrors, in that order. not on the graph below, but ultra low preset was around 185 fps (but looked pretty bad)
This is on a 5800x3d and undervolted (0.9v) RTX 3080
Worth trying the following if you haven't already.
DDU your driver and install a debloated new driver.
With DLSS I've found that I get more stuttering if I turn of auto dynamic preset and use any of the DLSS preset.
On seems to smooth it out better.
I also turn car reflections and mirrors to low.
For the guys with a 4090 have you tried increasing your resolution....with preferably a higher DL setting in your Nvidia control panel.
I have a i5 9600kf @ 5ghz and a 4060 running at 2560x 1080 on ultra with dlss and get 85+ fps on track but my GPU usage fluctuates between 75-95%
When I increase it to 3440x1440 @ high settings and DLSS I get more or less the same avg but a higher GPU usage of 95+% and less fps fluctuations.
In general, the game needs a lot of optimization.
