Before I start; my drivers are up to date. I have tried a whole bunch of things. My hdd is quite full (600/750gb). I have restarted my computer, the game etc.
Recently, there was a steam midweek sale, and I bought Just Cause 3 XL for around 20 dollars. I have played the game on a friend's PS4, and I loved the experience. I decided to get it, and I thought I was in for a smooth ride. Unfortunately, my system ran it at ~20 fps, making it virtually unplayable.
There was not much of a fps when changing settings, so that wasn't the problem. Currently, I'm running an i5-4690k with 16gb of DDR3 RAM @ 1866Mhz. My graphics card is an EVGA superclocked 980. I'm running it on a 1080p monitor.
I have tried many games in the past with success, Bioshock Infinite, GTA V, and Minecraft with shaders. Just cause 3 was a game I was really looking forward too, and now that it's virtually unplayable, I had to dump yet another amazing game. I have seen others with the same specs, run this game perfectly, and even NVIDIA's website states that this card can get 60+fps, max on 1440p. I have no idea as to why it isn't achieving nearly as high performance as that.
It really annoys me that I have wasted money and time, into something I could have enjoyed.
