[SOLVED] VERY low fps with 1080ti in BFV

[kebbe-thedreamer]

So, last year I invested a lot of money in a brand new GTX 1080ti, hoping it would run future games like a breeze. However, when I got myself Battlefield V I got myself a massive disappointment. My FPS is low, VERY low. I'm playing on 1080p with all settings on low and still only average around 80 FPS in every map. I ran some benchmarking test in Afterburner to test my theori and here's the results:

On the map called Narvik:

Average framerate : 80.8 FPS
Minimum framerate : 43.9 FPS
Maximum framerate : 197.4 FPS
1% low framerate : 36.5 FPS
0.1% low framerate : 17.3 FPS

On the map called Fjell:

Average framerate : 90.7 FPS
Minimum framerate : 41.8 FPS
Maximum framerate : 200.5 FPS
1% low framerate : 40.2 FPS
0.1% low framerate : 22.4 FPS

On the map called Twisted Steel:


Average framerate : 79.3 FPS
Minimum framerate : 32.5 FPS
Maximum framerate : 163.6 FPS
1% low framerate : 33.8 FPS
0.1% low framerate : 16.4 FPS

Besides having a 1080ti as my GFXcard the rest of the lineup in the computer is as follows:

(Using Speccy)

Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i5 4690K @ 3.50GHz 49 °C
Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
16,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 1201MHz (11-13-14-32)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. Z97-A (SOCKET 1150) 28 °C
Graphics
VG248 (1920x1080@144Hz)
3071MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (ZOTAC International) 43 °C
Storage
238GB Crucial_ CT256MX100SSD1 SCSI Disk Device (SATA (SSD))

Does anyone got a clue why my frames are so low? It's coming to the point where it's ruining my game experince since im used to clean 144FPS gaming.

You are CPU limited, BFV eats 4 threads for lunch.

Damn, was one of my thoughts.. But i still think my fps is waaaaay to low even though its 4 threads

BF5 is a very CPU intensive game, especially the 64 player maps. You're maxing out those 4 cores, guaranteed.

Yup, they're maxed out, at about 97-98%.

Quote from Techspots review of the beta.
"Battlefield 1 was one of the first games to really kill the quad-core CPU, 64-player multiplayer Battlefield 1 to be precise. As expected Battlefield V is no easier on quad-cores, we regularly saw my Core i7-8700K test system which features all cores clocked at 5 GHz exceed 70% utilization and at times peak at over 80%, so good luck with four threads."
