Hey guys I'm reasonably new to PC gaming and I have bought Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG). I have recently had a slight issue with the title as the buildings don't render in time from me jumping out of the plane and landing to loot. I have heard of numerous fixes regarding an SSD and more RAM but I don't know what to believe. Any advice? I get paid in 10 days so I would like to know what to get first.

My Rig

I5 7400
GTX 1060 3GB
8GB DDR4 2133MHz RAM
1TB WD Blue HDD
 
Solution
An SSD will help, obviously. It helps with everything over a mechanical drive...

However, that is not the games systems minimal requirements. So it shouldn't be doing texture popin simply because you were not running on an SSD. This is a game issue.

Either way, there is nothing wrong with going with SSD and more memory. Should help in other games as well.


So turn those settings up or down?
 


Right okay, its just I've heard people report that more RAM fixes it
 
You need to tweak the post-processing feature in your game settings. Nothing to do with your setup. However, this will mean more workload for your PC, and can reduce your FPS. If you're not comfortable with the results, and you want high FPS and also fix this, then you may need to upgrade.
 
I only ask because your card only has 3gb of vram.

You can try to increase virtual page file size and see if that does anything for you.

Click on start, right click on PC and select properties, click on advanced system setting and click on settings under performance, then select advanced tab.

Under "virtual memory" select change.

Uncheck "automatically manage paging file size for all drives" and select "custom" then set Initial size and Maximum size to 8000mb

Hit 'Set" and then "ok" and it should ask you to reboot your PC. Do that and try to play the game again.

That will artificially increase your ram to 16gb. Using the hard drive disk space as Ram. It is not as fast but may resolve your issue. If it does. Then maybe upgrading memory might work for you.
 


Can't find it I'm on Windows 10 just to clarify
 
Yeah those instructions are for Windows 10.

Try to go to control panel at the top right search put "advanced system" it should display "view advanced system settings" you should be able to find it from there.

But like I said before I really don't think your system is the issue. It is most likely a game option setting causing the problem.
 


Didn't fix it 🙁
 


I guess its just that others aren't having this problem so I'm confused I raised the issue with bluehole and I'm waiting on a reply
 


 


Legitimately all I got was a try reinstalling it and verifying files... Thats all I got. I had tried that before I asked anyone like really? What a poor help
 
Okay so after buying an SSD and installing the game to that it fixed my issue, the extra RAM is a nice bonus and my system runs faster than ever before. So yes the SSD did help.
