Battlefield 1 Low fps

[Jormuttar]

i7 -7700K
GTX 1080 ti
16 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3,2Ghz
ASUS ROG Strix Z270F motherboard

Just bought these upgrades for my new PC. I've been through dozens of posts like this but i dont understand why i can't reach higher fps with this new rig. mostly im between 50-70 fps with ultra settings, resolution scale set to 100%. I got an 1920x1080 ASUS 144hz monitor, which i had hoped to test its full potential on, and i dont understand how people get 150 fps at higher resolutions. Im no brainiac when it comes to this, but is there something im missing? Please please help 🙁

Did you reinstall Windows when you upgraded? If not, it probably has old driver files scattered around, which cause the system to have trouble finding the right ones in some situations.

Are you sure all cores/threads are enabled on your 7700K?

Thank you for the reply

Yes, windows is freshly installed, and all the drivers are up to date. And it seems like ajusting the settings wont make much of a difference. Even with 200% resolution scale the fps is pretty much the same. Im having drops down in 40 fps even in close combat, meaning the card dont need to render the entire battlefield. I can try and do some recordings, anything in particular i should record (cpu cores, fans, temps etc.)?

All the cores are enabled

200% resolution scale is essentially running it at 4K. A Titan XP isn't doing 150 fps at ultra 4K.

I was simply saying that even with the resolution scale set to 200% the fps pretty much remains the same.

I just lowered the graphics, put resolution scale back to 100%, turned off AA, lightning quality set to medium and vsync is off. Might have a little boost now, but still i get these 40-50fps drops, and i can feel the stuttering :/ Is there a bottleneck somewhere, seeing that fps is mostly the same even when i change quality settings?

Are you using MSI Afterburner or similar software to monitor your hardware usage? Is your CPU at 100% usage? What are your temps? You could be thermal throttling. What CPU cooler are you using?

It seems to fluctuate alot, when im monitoring all 8 cpu's they are ofter in the high 90's. Temps are around 50-60c. Im using corsair h100i.

...You scared me with the "high 90's" comment, I thought you were referring to your CPU temp!

If all eight of your cores are hanging around 90% while you're running the game, something else is eating up CPU power and causing the game to basically starve as it tries to run on a CPU that's already loaded down. Check your Task Manager and see what all is using your CPU while the game is running.

I think it's time for some benchmarking. It would be useful to see if you're having a general FPS problem or a game-specific one.

Think i found something interesting. The first image is when im playing on a 64-man server, the other is 40.
During the 64 game, the computer was at 100% many times, and the lowest fps drop i saw was 19.
In 40, i was between 65-110, still fluctuating alot, but still very much playable than 64.

But, in the 64 picture, bf is actually using 71,6% while the 40 man game bf is using 80,8%
I dont get it... xD

I can run heaven or 3dmark if you like, which numbers i ought to get with stock settings?

That's still the same performance as an i5 + GTX 1060. Worse if you dropped to 19fps. Something is definitely wrong.

It turned out to be bad SSD's, both actually. Installed everyhing on a single new HDD, and everything runs smoothly. Got the game set to 120fps, and it rarely drops under that Thank you all for your thoughts and time on my issue.

Glad you had a happy ending! I would not have guessed multiple bad SSDs.
