FarCry 3 Performance

[Swoops McGee]

Hello all!

 

I have played FarCry 4 and 5 so I figured I should play through the most popular installment in the series: FarCry3. 

I can run 4 & 5 on high setting and sit at a fairly stable 70 fps. Though, even on medium settings, I am dipping below 60 often on FarCry3...

 

My rig (all @ stock speeds):

Cpu: Ryzen 3 2200g

RAM: 8gb 3000mhz DDR4

GPU: GeForce 1060 6gb

PSU: Seasonic 520w

 

Cooling is all adequate, GPU/CPU never top 78 degrees.

 

I also have the game saved on my SSD instead of my HDD.

 

Am I missing something? Or is this game just optimized differently?

 

Thank you!
