Performance Problems in VR

[voodoomom]

Hey, I have no idea how to solve this.

I'll start with my hardware configuration.

CPU 5950x
Board Crosshair hero vi Fw 8601
Graphics card 4090 tuf oc nv526.98
Valve Index / Steamvr Beta 1.25.1

 

@Steamvr
100% resolution @80 /90 hz
Disable supersampling
motion smoothness disabled

@ingame 
everything on low or high (it tryed)
no aa

@nvidia panel
I left everything as it was in its original state

The problem is I can't get the game to run smoothly.
The graphics card and cpu run at around a third of the capacity.
when i fly towards buildings it stutters in certain areas it is unplayable.

I would be very grateful for help with the settings in Steamvr / Nvidia Panel / Gamesettings

I also read a bit about open xr as an fps booster

Bios is up to date
Graphics card driver is up to date and always uninstalled with ddu / no experience
Board AMD driver is up to date

windows is 10

What missions are you testing it out on? I've got a 4090 and an index and it runs smoothly but In SP, if I have the AI units #'s cranked up on anything higher than Medium the game runs terribly especially on Normandy. I've come to find out, its not really a graphics power issue and more CPU/Game Engine problem. In MP, my game runs perfectly but adding in a good amount of AI units the game starts to take a huge performance hit with Micro Stutters. I've tested this, Loaded up in flat screen mode and the stutters are still there if you look closely enough. The issue is when your in VR and your that close to the screen you can really see it, not so much on a flat screen even though its there. Another thing, having a steady Frame rate is really important. A solid 60fps looks and feels better than 150fps jumping between 90fps and then back over and over. Anyways, I've found my sweet spot at 90fps with my index and system.

 

I'll try and shoot over my settings when I get home.

Here is my settings: PC Specs: Windows 10, Intel I9-10900KF overclocked to 5.0 GHz, 32 GB Ram, Gigabyte 4090, 1TB m.2 SSD. In game settings, and Steam VR settings Attached Below. I get a Solid 90 FPS in MP and Medium Desity AI in SP. Anything over that setting in SP the game becomes a slide show due to how much resources AI Units take up, seems like anything over 10-15 AI planes in a single area have a huge effect on Performance, Heavy AA also brings my system to a crawl. On Normandy, with the new AA on ships, when they start firing my game takes a Giant dump in performance. But now a days, I play mostly MP and have not had any issues. I guess since the game is not having to sim AI units due to that fact that every plan in the sky is human.

I have exactly the same system as you do,  in the Varjo I have 3552 x resolution, looks amazing.

4FXAA. No HDR, no sharpen.

Il2 Performance about the same as you mention, lots of AI specially in Normandy slows things down.

I wonder if a 13900KF will make a difference?

Yeah, I'm thinking a new CPU will be my next upgrade. Wondering the same. I've been holding out on a new headset, have been eying the Varjo but have been telling myself to wait at least another year to see what is on the horizon. But I've heard its a killer headset.
