The issues are way overblown. I have a mid tier system as best (2070S 8700k) and with the DLSS mod and some performance tweaks I play on Ultra.

Edit: down vote all you want losers youโ€™re still wrong.

The issues are way overblown. I just bought a new car and with brand new tires and a few tweaks from my local repair shop I can go the speed limit now.

How is a 2070S equivalent to a new car?

it seems the current meta is to hate on starfield at the moment. I would suggest to keep playing and enjoying the game if you do and not to post about it.

That is always the meta with new and popular AAA games. Especially since PS players are salty MS denied them the game thereโ€™s even more salt and a lot of tribalism hehe.

I love Starfield and has been playing it every day since launch. It runs like dogshit. Sure it doesnโ€™t stutter or anything but I canโ€™t, for the life of me, get the average FPS in outdoor areas to be anything higher than 70. 5800X + 3080 Ti. It doesnโ€™t matter how much I lower the setting, the CPU overhead is crazy.

so it does not stutter or anything and it does run on an average of 70fps outside and in taxing environments and you are describing this as dogshit?

lol. no further questions.

Give it up mate, even the first rudimentary workaround more than doubled the FPS people have been getting. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1530726-starfield-now-runs-twice-as-fast-on-linux-compared-to-windows/

If I set the resolution to 1024x768 and the graphics to Low but the FPS is still the same, something is wrong.
