Just reached New Atlantis, so a pretty bustling area. Still have yet to drop below ~65 fps, maxed out settings at native 4k.

XFX Merc 310 Radeon 7900 XTX GPU
32 GB G.Skill Trident DDR5 @ 6000mhz
2TB WD_BLACK SN850X SSD

No stuttering or anything to be seen either. It's been rock solid for me.

According to steam forums it doesn't, someone mentioned getting auto HDR to work though.

Seems like they went with something not visually "stunning" but it does run alright on a wide range of hardware

How many FPS are you getting with your setup?
These annoying users at my job can kindly fuck off now. I want to log off work and start playing

ok, i dont understand how FSR scaling works in this game. there is no option for quality or performance. so what do i do?
use the ingame scaler? I have it 62% with FSR enabled at 4k. is that 1440p internal resolution? or does it go to 1440p then use FSR quality on it or 1080p?
i am getting 60 fps indoors on a 3080 i7-11700k 32 GB and roughly 45-55 fps outdoors on high.

No fsr, max everything, 1440p
Cave, opening area, was 120 fps vsynced. Inside the base after the cave as low as 75 fps. Turned off after so I can get up early to play more.

Indoors I’ll hit 144, outdoors it hovers around 70ish. I get occasional big drops that are no bueno. A YouTuber said he had the same experience on his 3080 and dropped his settings to high to fix it. Gonna try that tomorrow.How many FPS are you getting with your setup?

Man, I would recommend just downloadimg the DLSS 2 mod and enjoy the game.

As per google:
AMD FRTC (Frame Rate Target Control), an embedded feature in the AMD Radeon Driver Software, allows you to lock frame rate in a game. It is very easy to limit FPS via AMD FRTC. You just need to open AMD Radeon Settings > click Global Settings > enable Frame Rate Target Control > Set the FPS limit

Just saw it. Downloaded the mod but the installation instructions had me download a couple of other files so i said fuck it for now. Will try tomorrow.
But again, how do i ensure I’m getting dlss quality and not performance?
Also where is the hdr option? I have it enabled in windows but don’t see it in display settings.

I have a bit of an unrelated question, did your friend get premium edition for his 7800X3D? I havent bothered redeeming mine cause I thought it was standard
Re HDR: there's no setting for it in the game at all, apparently it just takes the windows one lol.
As for the DLSS mod setting, not sure yet. I downloaded it but dont have the game unlocked.

Tag, you're it.
4090/13700K/32GO DDR5@6200MHz/Firecuda 530 Gen4 @4K and I'm in the 50s/low 60s more often than anything else.
I need to be in 1440p (native for my display) to get 70+FPS in New Atlantis (full ultra of course, no shitty FSR).
Also:
Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX4090 run Starfield at Native 4K/Max Settings with 60fps?
Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Starfield at Native 4K/Max Settings with constant 60fps? Time to find out.

But that changes it for all games, so I'll have to change it any time I switch away from Starfield.

Lol I'm running The Ultra preset at 1440p with a fucking GTX 1070
Sure only 30fps max and sometimes a lil dip below. But this game is weird.

Just tested it and it works really great. If it's quality or performance I don't know but it upscales the game to 4K without issues on my 3060 lol

If AMD really paid Bethesda and Microsoft to fuck this game on Nvidia there's going to be hell to pay on release day. Nvidia is the one who has 90% of the market, if it only runs well on 10% of the gaming PC's on Steam there's gonna be a LOT of refunds coming.

I played about 45min on Deck. Initially it crashed while loading a save file. There was a notification for a Deck update that had “fixed GPU crash in Starfield” in the notes. Did the update and it crashed on open. Then I switched it to Proton Experimental and now it functions correctly.
As for the performance: On lowest settings it ran ok on a mission and in space, but upon entering New Atlantis it runs 20-25fps the majority of the time. So I’d say it’s not playable in the more demanding areas.
You’re better off streaming it if you want to play on Deck.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
There’s a day one patch for steam deck coming later

Okay this thread is making me want to buy it. They are bundling it with 6600xt's so they are confident it runs well. I have a 6600xt so I'm curious about how well it would run. I obviously want to play the game too, but I was planning on waiting.
Anyone got bug reports? Crashes? Random nightmare faces?

...I'm sure I'll be ok lol
I have a few other PCs, but I don't see me playing it on em. A build with a 1070 Titan card, an older work PC with a HD 5770 and another with a 5970 as well as a new build I'm doing with a 4090.
So...at most I'll play it on 2 builds, I might do the second playthrough on the 4090 build when thats complete

Serious question: Anyone capping the game to 30 fps on PC? I don't mind playing at 30 fps on consoles (especially in third person) as long as it's super smooth and has perfect frame pacing, which rarely seems to be the case on PC making it pretty painful.
So, has anyone tried it?

If you have an Nvidia card and aren't using PureDarks DLSS mod, please do so. FSR is straight up garbage:

It may not be well optimised compared to other AAA games but this is seriously the first time I've played a Bethesda game without crazy frame drops in the cities and I've been playing since Morrowind. Maybe they have improved the engine a bit or maybe my 7800x3d just brute forces things but I'm very happy with the performance. On my old 3900x and 2070s I could get Skyrim and Fallout 4 to drop below 60fps and more like 30fps in places for Fallout but this is stable so far. To be fair my min fps went up by 3 to 4 times with the 7800x3d in Fallout so maybe not Bethesda doing any improvements but the 3D cache just overpowering the jank.
1440p native so no FSR junk otherwise all max settings on a 7800x3d & 4080 gives 65-100 fps in cities and 120-140 fps indoors. There are load points all over but they are 1-4 seconds so far on a gen 4 NVME.
Some stuff looks shit even on max settings (foliage and the non talky NPCS) but surprising beautiful for a Bethesda game too. I'm sure this old engine is bursting at the seams but if it's what it takes to get Mass Effect meets Oblivion I'll take it.

LOL, zero optimization for Nvidia.
The best thing that this is 1080p, this game doesn't have any RT, Lumen (or any form of GI), Nanite etc. NOTHING that justifies this performance, even SSR is absent just ancient cube map reflections.
What the fuck Bethesda?

Maybe nvidia can release some optimized drivers for the game.
AMD released yesterday a set of drivers that increased performance by 16%.
If nvidia does the same, it will almost bring parity.
