What value should i use for something like 90 fov?
I usually use the ingame slide so i have no idea what numbers to put in.

AMD did the same thing when Halo launched.. my 6800xt was struggling and once they upgraded the drivers it ran great.

Theory, my friend and I both noticed while out 3080s are pegged at 99% the temps on both of them are a decent amount lower than normal, mines about 8 degrees lower than normal. I feel like something's happening there.

See if it underclocks, but could be not making use of tensor cores that makes it easy on the card.

Well the clock is sitting at around 1935mhz, pretty normal for me. I do have it undervolted though. But still a lower temp than normal.

How much does FSR2 impact IQ? I have it turned off but I might give it a try today.
Hopefully we get FSR3 soon.

These are some wild results and all over the place.
3300x beating 10900k (especially in 1% lows) is hilarious.
10900k getting destroyed (+27%) by the so called "waste of sand 11900k" for some reason. Maybe the game scales abnormally well with memory speed?
Seems like the amount of threads doesnt matter (3300x vs 10900k) and neither does single thread performance (8600k would be comparable with ryzen 3600)
One thing that seems to matter the most is which brand cpu you have, about 35% boost for amd cpus that would perform about the same in other games, but this only applies on the low end (11900k curiously beats 5800x somehow) and likely partly because of the memory speed.
Appears that the sponsorship has paid off as people with older non-amd chips that might be in the market to upgrade will struggle.

Holy shit at these black levels on pc. This is unplayable. It´s broken and will be fixed, right? Right?

By Bethesda? I doubt it. By modders? Probably.
Those fools didn't see this issue durning 7 years of development.

I wouldn't say it's unplayable, but it's bad.
So far the only proper black color was that moment when you touch the artifact.

Think u can use reshade to fix the colors. Im sure some ppl will upload their presets soon enough on nexus

But does it look good enough to justify graphics quality? Location in benchmark run in Daniel Owen video looks like something from PS4 game.

The only thing it does is lowering shadow resolution+count and ambient occlusion quality, i imagine it does close to nothing, at least the ultra one.Did anyone tried this?

The potato one also slightly affects reflections and it sets the resolution scale crazy low (50->35)
Could work as a placebo if you dont read this though.

Damn I know this is max settings but still...my 3060 ti isn't looking good for 1440/2160

2 dudes on ree noticed some difference but i guess i can just lower shadows and shit on medium by myself.

I'm yet to test the game myself but hot damn, that's an effin' disaster! And the game does not have SSR? WTF?!

First perf results:
55-60fps in the caves (mines) as you start the game and then 38-40fps outside during the first fire fight with the pirates.
Playing at 1080p on mostly medium with a few settings on low like crowd density and shadow quality. The render scale is set to 100% and FSR2 enabled.
I've arrived on New Horizon and getting around 40 - 44fps in this city.
System specs:
I7 6700k
GTX 1080ti
16GB 3200mhz
1TB nvme

I still dont understand the DRS scalar. Where are the FSR quality settings? How do I ensure I am getting FSR Quality and not FSR performance? Is it tied to the scaling option?
I have the 3080 10 GB too and was getting 60 fps indoors and 50 fps outdoors on high settings with the scalar set to 62% at 4k.

This game has been rumoured to be coming in for a bad landing for over a year now.
I don't know what the fuck howard was thinking trying to make a game like this with that engine.

Too bad they don't have any DDR5 results to test that memory bandwidth theory.

it actually works. at least compared to tlou part 1
the game is super duper compliant with 6-8 gb vram. heck, it is compliant with 4 gb vram (as I predicted it would be, as the game is optimized to scale down to series s). super compliant on 16 gb ram. also even compliant on 8 gb ram (once again, thanks to series s)
no major stutters. only minor hiccups here and there
this is not going to be review bombed on Steam. so yeah, it actually just works. much better than tlou , jedi survivor or any other abomination we'have seen this year
not everyone is after that perfect 60+ fps experince. most 1070 users will be fine with medium 40-50 fps and be dandy
this is simply unreal for a 2023 title.

I'm on a MSI Faming X trio 4090 and a Ryzen 7 5800x. 32 gigs of DD4 ram (CL 16, 4000mhz, underclocked to 3600)
My experience is great and long as you are indoors or planet side. On the first planet, even with FSR 2 I'm seeing significant frame dips below 60 fps at times.
Otherwise I'm sitting pretty at around 120-130 fps at 1440p.

I have no idea but I like the granularity. you can for example run %80 scaling at 1440p or %90 scaling at 1080p to get that sweet FSR anti aliasing replacement and high quality AMD sharpening with minor performance boost
fsr quality at 1440p/1080p can be shoddy. granularity is better and more honest towards the user in my opinion

Yeah, the game is fine. I have had no stutters, no bugs, no truly awful performance like i got in TLOU and Star Wars almost immediatly. Granted im not at the city yet or have reached an open world but the first hour and a half has been smooth sailing.
Its unfortunate that the performance on nvidia GPUs and intel CPUs is not on par with AMD cards but thats what AMD gamers go through in every game that favors nvidia cards and intel CPUs. this game was probably built on xsx.
I had awful experiences with hogwarts, tlou and star wars on day 1. tlou and hogwarts were fixed after a month but star wars was never fixed. starfield id say is more like FF16. Its not perfect but its very polished in comparison to disasters like tlou and star wars.

From the performances analysis i'm reading everywhere, no, it really doesn't unless you have an amd centric hardware.
The fact that i'm fucking scared to try this thing with a 4080\13600k\32 gb ddr5 6000 mhz under my ass should speak volume.
Jedi survivor was running fine on my rig, not perfect but better than what i'm reading about starfield, but i didn't tried tlou1, just the ps5 version.
I didn't had much problems with any of the abominations this year, maybe i'm lucky, but from the sound of it, this is gonna be the first game that i can't play even remotely close to 4k60 or with dlss that look almost as good as native since i upgraded my pc last year...
(Vaselline fsr that kill the iq is not 4k or remotely comparable to dlss)
The game lacks even basic option like a fov slider, framerate limiter, a full screen option and brigthness slider while having super washed out colors indoors, i don't wanna deal with nvidia settings, ini files, mods and reshade to play a fucking game, i didn't had to do anything of that with the "abominations"...
I hope i'm wrong and i get lucky with thos one aswell.

Preorder canceled. My 10700k is going to die with this shitty game...

Well it has realtime cube maps, which are more demanding than SSR. SSR is pretty limited in a lot of ways, and can look good for puddles and the like, but much less so for the kinds of chrome and metallic surfaces like we see in Starfield. Probably the right call, although maybe a hybrid approach would have been better in certain scenarios.

I fucking wish. I was trying to do that all night to see if I can get a smooth 60fps. But my computer can barely handle 40fps on medium settings at 1080p.

You have to extract the stuff into the folder with the EXE, not the "root" as the instructions say.

The PureDark DLSS injector + CAS seems to work well - I can't see any obvious issues like the blurry UI in RE4 Remake and now getting 85-140fps everywhere even in towns. Way better than FRS and better than native quality at 75% render scale but that's only really as the native IQ is kinda shimmery as DLSS looks way more stable.
Seems it loves AMD processors as I'm always GPU bound even with a 4080.
Sorry for those with bad performance as that has basically been me for every Bethesda game in history until today. Their engine works on a wing and a prayer but I love the games so I'm all in regardless.

Starfield: 24 CPU-Benchmarks - Welcher Prozessor reicht aus?
Starfield ist da und PCGH prüft mit CPU-Benchmarks, welche Anforderungen das Spiel an den Prozessor stellt.

No, it mostly runs at 90-100 for me. The demanding New Atlantis sections dip down to low 60s though, which is pretty noticeable when you're used to seeing 90. So I could see why locking to 60 might be a better experience for some.

I dropped Shadows to low and saw a nice bump ~5FPS outside in New Atlantis...enough to keep me at a constant 60FPS at 1440p with FSR2 with default render resolution scale at 62%.
Everything else High, less motion blur at Medium.
Just going to play around and see what little gains I can get here and there.
Will have to pay attention what the shadow quality differences are like indoors at Low. Not seeing anything major outside so far (and New Atlantis is how far I've gotten).
