troubleshoot NFS Heat, about 30 fps on 1080 Ti / Ryzen 3600

[Splicore]

I'm sorry if this isn't the place to post this - let me know if so..

 

I have tried damn near everything to solve this - 

The user.cfg hotfix file, vsync, NVIDIA control panel/experience all settings, all of it. 

 

Turned off all overlays (origin, nvidia, xbox) and overclocking apps, viva/fraps, killed processes i.e.

 

I'm all out of ideas. 

 

Online/offline made no difference, setting all options to low got me 32 fps and ultra @200 resolution scale gets me 26-30??

 

I'm livid and at the edge of giving up. 

 

Playing on Origin, EA Play subscription,

from an SSD.

 

GTX 1080 Ti, 

Ryzen 5 3600,

well, it appears the game is just very badly programmed and heavily cpu and gpu intensive... 

 

you said you made the user / config fix, but you didn't see any improvements?

that seems a bit odd for sure, though looking at this you probably wouldn't even get 60fps... but you *should* get more than 30...

 

Are you really sure you did the config fix right? because you should definitely see an improvement... 

 

if you did see an improvement, that's probably just it then... 

 

Also you could try some settings... if the game has options for volumetric lighting / rendering or similar turn those off. 

 

Also have you tried to play at lower resolutions? like 720p or below? 

 

Even if that's not desirable it could give some info about overall performance.,
