RTX 3090 30% - 40% GPU usage! Awful frame rates

@hyperf0x that’s exactly what mine is doing but mostly near towns.

Are you running windows 10 or 11?

Well, I’m not working for Amazon and I’m not a Lumberyard engine expert either, so I can just guess why such thing is happening, but I’m 100% sure that it is in close connection with vRAM.

Your scenario is actually could turn out as a beneficial one :slight_smile: IF it would constantly work like that and as soon as there would be some action on your screen at that specific angle the GPU would start to turn on and render the view in max (desired) FPS - I mean if every time when we would see a featureless view the engine would give some easy time for the GPU to cool down and and with that save you a few coins not just due to your GPU life time, but also due to your electrical bill. Not even speaking of ECO footprint till gaming.

But this is not the case. Since we are having such scenarios in areas where the engine should be providing max frame rate to serve our gaming experience.

In the end of the day Lumberyard is a new engine. We can call NW a great test of Lumberyard and also a promotion of Lumberyard - based on the latest we can appetite high hopes, since Amazon will not allow to let New Wold paint a bad picture of their engine. They spent much-much more into Lumberyard than they did to New World :slight_smile:

3090 3600x here 32gb ram, 70-80 fps when its good. down to 30 in cities etc when its terrible. Newer drivers actually seem slower than the last release from nvidia.

RTX 3080ti & 5600x 32GB DDR4-3600 - No issue here. See the card hitting 99% usage at 1440p. Most of the time FPS is around 160. I do see it dip in town, the throttling in town is likely due to the limit in place for how many characters are displayed at once.

On the latest NVIDIA Drivers there were released a week before the game went live.

be sure to change your windows power settings,
change cpu minimum to 100%, i had same issue, only happens with this game,
set it to 100% instead of 0 and it runs fine now, w as like 30-40 fps now 60-100+

have r9 5900x
3060ti

although, power usage goes up a lot, this game has lot of issues

I fixed this by using Ryzen Master to disable 8 of my 16 cores. I went from 30-50 FPS to 90-120 with my RTX 3090. HOWEVER, now I am getting the 3090 crashing issue because apparently it can’t actually handle that amount of FPS so I am once again screwed.

You’re a god, thanks you so much

That did the job to me, just swapping to high perfomance fixed my issues, now i’m getting constant 60fps ( locked with nvidia ) and no fps drop
My GPU wont even go past 55° in high setting, CPU goes to 75° tho

I updated to W11 last night and this problem appeared! now I rolled back to W10 and the problem is still there, I get random fps drops to 20 in towns with the gpu only at 60% usage. In the wild it works fine at 100%.

Yo your card is running at 63 C / 143 F!? You might want to look at your cooling first.

63C is actually really good.

Windows 11 seems to not be playing nice with New World and FPS I upgraded from Windows 10 and noticed a drop on FPS.I used to never go below 60 now I drop below 30 at times.

my windows 11 works great with new world
being able to alt tab perfectly is a nice option to windows 11

Same, fps drops to 20 sometimes in cities. I rolled back to W10 and the problem persisted.

The game has been unplayable for the past few days for me. Running fine in the morning and then in the afternoon I get get FPS greater than 10 in game. Only 15-20% GPU usage.

I am on an older system, i7700k and 1080Ti with 32GB RAM.

Has anyone found a solution yet?

Same happens here, I have a GTX 1050 Ti, its low I know but its better than the GPU Recomended to play this game, My GPU usage only reachs 30%, I also have and I5 9th Gen, and 16 GB Ram, it should be enough to play a little better than 9 fps, but not even updating drivers, or following the recomendations posted here helped ar all.
Is there any other solution?

I also have the same issue, my cpu is not as good as yours but 3080ti, i8700k @ 4.9ghz. CPU never tops out, neither does GPU but frame rate drops are terrible. This game really is in alpha state isn’t it? Such a shame as it has some great features but it’s going to be a LONG time before it’s my go to game.

same problem with my 6800xt - no matter if its win 10 or win 11. Power settings are changed to high / ultimate.
in fights my fps drops to 20fps.

Actually I do own a 3090, and I had the same issue, this issue was caused by several things.

  1. The window wasn’t recognized as full screen.
  2. The resolution of the current monitor used to display the game was not the same as the game.
  3. NVRLA was enabled, (Nvidia related things, just kill the process in task manager for test purposes)

So what I did to solve this was, basically restart my computer, opened up task manager after the computer was fully initiated and booted up (all drivers loaded, third parties etc), went to task manager, looked for NVRLA, killed that process.

Next I went to my NVIDIA Display settings, changed my resolution to my desired resolution, can be done in display options too, after that I made sure my HZ is correct set to my monitor.

Then I launched New World, went into the options, choose the similar resolution that would match my display resolution, closed the game and relaunched it (making sure it was fullscreen before that).

After that was done my issue was completely removed.

thx !!! disabled 6 of my 12 cores - Ryzen 5900 and now my GPU is not at 100% usage but its 80%. So i get over 60fps.

In some cases i have only 30 fps… my GPU uses only 60W in this scenario
