Loading times are bad even with 7000mb/s gen4 NVME (Samsung 980PRO) AMD Ryzen 7 5700x + RX 6800XT - both almost 100% load in maps, 80-144FPS with massive drops under 40 fPS. UW QHD 3440x1400. I've locked MAX FPS to 72 (because of heat and noise) but to my surpise, FPS drops are now almost gone.

Also tried to set poe2 priority to high Ive made sure my Poe2 is running off my Nvidia card via profile Ive tried to reinstall my nvidia card drivers with a fresh install Ive deleted steam version and downloaded stand alone client Ive tried to set my shader Cache to infinite on Nvidia card Ive tried DSR settings on Nvidia and GPU scaling and sharpening NON OF THE ABOVE WORKED BUT ONE THING DID.... THE FIX FOR MY FPS STUTTERS AFTER OVER A WEEK OF TESTING AND TRYING EVERYTHING Lossless Scaling which i bought on Steam a couple years back to try and get more FPS out of a game called New World. After loading lossless Scaling then loading up poe2, clicking the scale button then going back to poe2 client it fixed my issue....I no longer get the stupid annoying stutters. I would consider my pc low end, specs under Nvidia 2060 i7 3770 16gb ram windows 10 this is confusing. isn't this for when GPU is bottlenecking? while some areas in poe2 are bottle necked by even modern CPUs?

My 5900x is quite dated by now but it's mostly doing fine. Only exception is the Temple of Kopec second floor. That light source just tanks my fps to 60ish. Otherwise, 7900xtx running good.	Posted by AlvinL_#4492 on Dec 16, 2024, 7:01:35 AM Quote this Post
i got a decent low end rig. i7 2600 and a used 1080 i got off ebay for $100 last year. i was on a gtx 950 lol i get around 70 fps and dips down to 25 fps. my CPU is getting annihilated, but to be fair it's time for a upgrade. ain't poe 2's fault there. 1080 is still a beast though, wow!

I have a good rig, not great but I play at 100+ fps (scaling it down to 80fps), log in to 13 ms servers. First run went perfect, but I don't know what is going on in cruel difficulty, it just spikes constantly. Tried lowering my specs, different server, just to see if anything changes, still the same. I can't for the life understand it so I personally think it's on GGG their side. Had 1 crash so far. All in all, it's fun, needs a lot of improvement but for an early access, I can't complain so far. Haven't done maps yet though, taking my time, and not sacrificing personal life and work for a game ;). CPU: AMD RYZEN 7700X GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT (Still a beast but needs an upgrade, it's bottlenecking my CPU). Runs on a Samsung SSD980 Pro 2TB and 32GB of Ram.
