It easily pushes 200, but it does not maintain it. If there is a Grav with a lot of people spamming into it with flashy abilities for instance, my FPS tanks.
I’m tired of playing on low, I want to turn my settings up, but the second I do, my FPS really starts to fluctuate. Idk why my experience with the 1080ti is so different than others, but I can tell you that a locked 240fps is not possible for me at low, let alone at max.
Make sure your render scale isn’t over 100%. It impacts performance a ton.
Not all graphics settings are purely GPU overhead. Sometimes enabling features requires additional work (sometimes significant amounts) by the CPU to submit more commands to the GPU.
Resolution is commonly the only graphics setting you can rely on to be entirely GPU because it’s just more pixels.
Just to make sure everything is right. Have you set the RAM to their specced speed in the bios? No matter what speed they are advertised all RAM sticks default to much slower speeds. Also because of that if something causes bios settings to reset at any point they would go back to the slow setting even if they were fast before.
Can 1080ti run 240hz?
Agreed the 1080ti is the best chance of GPU to achieve 240Hz (on most games) minimum. … But the same increase for pixels in frame rate cannot be compared. For instance if you have a game that uses a deferred renderer, it will rely heavily on fill rate ability for speed.
I dunno. It looks like it’s a wishy-washy yes or no. Tough to tell.
Sorry i can’t be of more help. been on a 1070ti for years.
If its not throttling/overheating, it sounds like nvidia settings issue
I was facing similar issues (not 3080 or anything lol). Would get 120-130 fps and suddenly it became 40-45.
After searching on forum/reddit, I changed the setting on battlenet to close it completely and it fixed the problem.
As for 3080. You might want to update the bios and other drivers (I’d do a clean install). Additionally, download the geforce experience and do the automatic setting if you don’t want to tweak around and make sure the refresh rate is 240hz and let it automatically select the best settings.
Generally the software chooses the best settings for to match refreah rate.
Generally speaking you’ll get over 300 fps (OW recently updated its fps limit to 400) with 3800x and 3080. A 2080 laptop gets 200fps on high settings so I don’t know why you’d be having this problem unfortunately. But most often outdated drivers cause significant framerate drops.
Yes, XMP and I verified they are running at the advertised speed.
This is my experience. Idk how so many people think the 1080ti just locks at 240fps, at least in my experience, it fluctuates A LOT. And if I had any worse if a graphics card, I may as well not have a 240hz monitor.
Interesting I will try that.
I dont have the 3080 yet, I was just asking the experience of anyone who has had one and used it on OW. I bought it specifically so I can lock my framers and stop having it fluctuate. And so that I can actually use my 4k monitor. Lol
For high FPS, CPU is more important than GPU.
Out of curiosity, how frequently were you checking stock?
I think could be thermal issue or some config. Because I have Fx-8350(4.4ghz) and gtx 1080(non ti) on 1080p and around 55-80 on 4k. If I reduce cpu related settings I can get 180-240 ish fps on 1080p. If I multitask around 110-160. So I normally play on ultra(with some tweaks on shadows) at 100fps.
And Fx-8350 isn’t meant for gaming, just for overall multitask. You have a ryzen, maybe some sort of config, sync feature or monitor feature or thermal throttling or OS issue.
You’ll never hit 240 FPS on a 1080 Ti unless you crank it all down to look like trash. Visuals do matter to some people.
OP explicitly stated they played on low, and most people who want 240hz play on all low settings.
Also anyone who cares about high framerates is not going to prioritize visuals. The two are like mutually exclusive priorities.
He couldn’t possibly play on low settings and not get well above 240hz on a 3080. Anyone who cares about visuals and framerates will. No. You have enough hardware you can have both, that is a myth to a degree. If you mean “caring about framerates” means having the absolute highest you can get on a monitor, even then with todays hardware you can run decent detail and still hit max. There are even pros who run 1440p over 1080.
Literally refreshing best buy and newegg nonstop for hours 10 days out of the past two weeks. It is easy for me to do this at my job, and I am a totally suckered for new tech. If you are not already on the webpage when the stock hits, it will be sold out by the time you get there. I got a tip from the website Nowinstock … net that there was likely to be a drop, and made it in time to get one.
This is pretty similar to the changes I see. Obviously I get better performance, but I would say overall maybe about 30%-40% better.
This is my experience right here, and it still isn’t even a consistent 240fps.
Yes, I play on low, and care more about framers, but I really miss the high end visuals.
I dont have my 3080 yet, I said my 1080ti.
The game is really badly optimized. I struggle to maintain 150FPS on all low settings at 1440p with a GTX 1080 TI. Gets worse with every patch as well.
I mean, I know for a fact this is the case, I am on a 1080 Ti with 8700K processor, I know the limits of this card.
The comment section of Nowinstock will score you one eventually. Insiders occasionally go there and drop tips, or people will have links to insiders dropping tips.
I know I replied to you twice, but I really hate scalpers and love helping other people beat them.
I feel like people think the 1080ti is some super card that can handle anything thrown at it below 4k, when that is not at all the case.
The 3080 could do it at max game setting assuming you’re not 4 years behind in CPU specs.
As others said, your 1080Ti could but you would need to lower game settings down a good amount. I have the 1080 (not Ti) and I can hold at 144 with most settings at high. I lower a few settings but mainly because they are annoying like reflections and fog.
I didn’t say you can never turn up options past low, but anyone who does care about have a stable high framerate will keep settings as low as they can.
OP is also literally describing a scenario where he won’t be able to maintain 240hz on low settings because the GPU is not the only thing that dictates rendering performance.
