30fps max on Ryzen 3700X

Hi all

I upgraded to a Ryzen 3700X on an Asus Prime Pro X470 board, 16G DDR4 @3200Mhz, GTX 1070 and Asus 4K MG28UQ.

I previously had an I5 2500K and 16GDDR3 @ 1600Mhz as well as the GPU and monitor.

Currently I am getting a solid 30fps with the graphics set to High. I am not sure why the fps don't go above 30 as some of my other sims hit around 50-60 fps.

With my I5 system I had the same graphics settings and would hit around 24-30, so I thought my new system would at least reach 45-50.

I believe I have vsync on as well.

Thanks

I have a 1070 just as you do and it is paired with an i7-8700k as per my sig specs. The 1070 was not really aimed at 4k gaming but rather 1440p. I really just believe that you are asking too much of that 1070 GPU to drive all those pixels on your 4k monitor at anything approaching 60 FPS. My suspicion is that you will need to up your GPU firepower to meet your expectations. Everything else in your system is fine for DCS though if I were to nit pick then I would also increase the RAM to 32GB. 2080 Super may be the way to go.

Try disabling hyper threading. I was given another +20 fps

and, yes. low videocard.

Please dont!!! Disabling HT will do nothing if the system is GPU bound.

You're GPU limited. Getting 30 FPS on a 4K screen in DCS with a GTX 1070 sounds about right to me. Instead of buying a new CPU, RAM, and motherboard, you should have gotten a 1080 Ti or RTX 2080/Ti to run your 4K monitor.

Make sure MSAA is turned off! It's a performance killer and you won't need it with a 4K screen.

Also, if your monitor supports Freesync or G-Sync, use that instead of VSync.

I was needing to upgrade my mobo,CPU and ram as I wanted to get into a Ryzen build.

The 30 fps is actually pretty solid, no real complaints really.

I may hold off on a new graphics card until next spring when the next gen of RTX cards come out.

My monitor has freesync tech but I haven't enabled it since I bought it in 2018

Max 30 FPS definitely sounds like some artificially imposed FPS limit. Maybe the VSync is limiting you to its half-rate (30 FPS)? Did you set a frame-limiter via Nvidia Inspector perhaps or the VSync at half-rate in Nvidia Control Panel?

I'm playing at 4K with a notebook 1080 and in SP it can reach 60 FPS (depending on the scene, naturally) with occasional drops (but I have a GSync monitor). IIRC, details are set to mostly high, 2x MSAA, not really sure of the exact settings.
