I am glad these settings worked out for you.
I seem able to play this ok at 50-60% 1440p FSR2 (so, ~1080p?) with medium-ish settings on my aging PC (3770K, GTX 1080). It crashed (I think the whole GPU driver and stuff) at the very first pirate outpost I explored past the first take off though, hopefully that was just a fluke.
This mod is great, especially the "Luma" variant, it keeps the intended color grading but has the contrasts of the Neutral LUTs.
Let me know how it performs. We have the same GPU, so I'm curious as to how your experience will be.
Not a Ti, but i have a 3080. I'm getting around 40fps at 1440p, optimized performance settings, and with the DLSS mod. Without DLSS, I got around 25-30fps

I wouldnt worry too much about your PC specs. The creation engine is a piece of turd that doesnt scale well with hardware and its not even well optimized. Starfield is probably pushing its limits with it so many users may have different outcomes, depending on population count, how long they played, etc. Just boot up Fallout 4 on that modern PC and go to the General Atomics Factory for example and you'll see your framerate tank. Even on migh 4070TI that place would drop to 40s. Most demading setting for their engine are the shadows. Put those on low or medium and see a huge FPS boost.
Just look at the performance increase with shadows. Absolute massive bullshittery. The visual difference isnt that huge either from the video. That along with if you have the population to max, it can probably impact the fps even more, more npc's more shadows=lower fps. Yeah, shitty engine. Thank Bethesda.
Thanks, fellows.
Look at my video above. Same GPU, better CPU. My GPU usage is 97-99% in Atlantis.
Nope.
I was running with the frame rate limiter enabled and without the 'disable in menu' option on. Last night I tried with the 'disable in menu' option on, and the limiter set to default/0 and I didn't have a crash in 3hrs of play. The 'disable in menu' option does cause a momentary stutter upon fast travel arrival, but I just started waiting 1sec before moving so I don't notice it. Just wanted to update you.
Ok, HUGE thing here, and an obvious one.
Download Nvidia Profile Inspector > Find Starfield on Game Selector Drop Down List > Force Enable ReBAR for Starfield > Massive Performance Upgrade for free!
Here's a tutorial video on how to use Nvidia Profile Inspector:
On my Intel i9 9900K / RTX 4090 / 64Gb DDR4-3600 CL16 / 2TB nvme SSD
It's running almost perfectly everywhere, at 4K Native/Ultra Settings + No Upscaling + No VRS + No FSR2 or DLSS3/2 Mods
Got about 20% more performance everywhere, it's a game changer. Massively reduces the slow downs in cities, not completely gone, but no where near as bad/frequent or off putting. Outside of cities rock solid 60 or above everywhere.

1. Do you mean DLSS support for Starfield?
very powerful crusty
Why are we comparing performance from a game that has been in early access since 2014 (nearly a decade now) to a game that has been available to the public for less than a week?
100% you can and I did. DLSS puts FSR to shame both in image quality and the performance increase you get. That free DLSS mod on Nexus was a game-changer.
Ok, so we're at the point where we're defending Star Citizen in order to attack Starfield. I feel bad I forgot to wave goodbye to reality as we floated past it...
The budget was apparently just over USD$200m, so given that's seemingly your sole justification, you'll halve the strength of your criticism, correct? As for "defending", you're posting non-sense and you're getting pushback. Did you expect to shit post without pushback? If you're not happy, post less non-sense.
It definitely underperforms - especially on NVidia hardware - but graphics and tech seem acceptable, given the RPG nature and scale of the game. You're struggling to describe anything that "deserves a bit of shaming".
