@msokolni DLSS you mean? It's not as good looking. Crashes are very normal this season for a ton of players. I don't normally run DX12 because it has never been stable for me... I just stick to ugly performance mode. I have tried with XMP off and on, and pretty much every bios setting you can imagine. Have also tuned the voltage properly on my i9 which has a notorious problem of being over throttled out of the box.
@@TobyWanShinobi same for me with a 9800x3D and 4090, as I wrote in the other comment, it's unplayable. Epic refuses to give any kind of support, this is not ok, many people can't play with high-end hardware.
Thank you for this video. Now ya know what console players have to go through without performance mode. Cheers to the console auers who can keep up with pc performance players!
Hey Toby, bit of graphics advice. don't enable TSR if you have your 3D resolution set to 100%. TSR, FSR, and related technologies are algorithms that use clever interpolation methods and sometimes AI to upscale images at a lower resolutions to a higher resolution in real time, meaning the actual shaders can render each frame quicker. You can also use this to your advantage. If you set your 3D resolution anywhere between 50% and 75%, and turn TSR up to either High or Epic, you can most likely run Fortnite perfectly fine with hardware raytracing turned on.
Very relieved to see you getting the same crashes and stutters I've been getting, it's not just me! Interestingly I have basically the same rig but play in 4k and the performance is about the same as what you're getting. I assume this is because DLSS is a lot more efficient (and better looking) when upscaling to 4k, DLSS in 1080 doesn't work very well
I play on a base ps5. While I like to play in 120 fps and tryhard, sometimes I like to put it down to 60 & just take in the scenery. This chapter is gorgeous!
@@Bad4bizbrad that's how I am on PC. Usually I run 1080p at 480 fps in performance mode to sweat, it's fun to go in bot lobbies and explore at max graphics.
Hey Toby. Don’t use TSR on a Nvidia card. You get way more FPS on DLSS. I have an 4080 and have everything on epic except Effects. Put that on high and DLSS to medium or high. I get around 140 FPS on a Ultra Wide 1440p monitor. Give it a try :)
Yep the light shifting is annoying (ps5 console). Which is why im happy I play on 120hz tv. Fast and gets rid of the insane lighting (looks good, just isnt practical)
16:25 Dude why does everyone just decide that Roblox has potato graphics. The idea of Roblox that people have in their heads is like 8 years behind what it actually is.
Thanks for the vodeo Now I understand why I crashed some times and had acasualy lags Also the elimination issue You can not shoot out a window because of the flair Thanks a lot❤
I play on 6900xt with 13900kf and 360Hz 1440p QD-OLED monitor at 1440p and it runs reasonable at ~160 fps +/- 20fps depending on map and settings. I lock frame rate as it improves input lag. Less lag locked at 120fps for example than if it was floating near 144fps. I typically use 50% resolution scale and most settings at high, some at epic. Shadows and reflections medium. RT doesn't seem to do much unless reflections are at least at high where reflections become actually very good and realistic. Performance impact from RT itself isn't very big but between medium (screen space) reflections and it at high + rt performance difference is somewhat significant. Planning to get 5090 and hopefully will be able to run with similar settings but with reflections at high and RT at 200fps and of course increased resolution scale to hopefully 100%. Going past what I set makes more hit to performance than visuals and going with some settings like global illumination to medium does a heavy hit to visuals so it is not worth it. BTW. Where it comes to scalers Epic TSR uses some trickery to not get blurry during motion. Some details are lost in-motion due to lower render resolution and in general but overall it looks pretty good and the higher the frame rate the less details are lost - or rather details get filled in quicker so visible loss of details happen with faster motion. Not sure DLSS if it is possible to use it in FN and if it would be better than TSR Epic - probably performance will be better because TSR Epic is somewhat taxing. It doesn't make that much performance difference at 1440p but on 2160p monitor it does and when I do run FN on 4K monitor (have like two gaming 4K monitors LOL) I drop TSR setting. XESS looks quite nice visually but it is a bit blurrier and also taxing on GPU. If I had Intel GPU it might be good option to run on 4K monitor. For 1440p monitor imho too blurry. Monitor-wise QD-OLED rocks. I also have 4K WOLED but I like it less. Also have fast 4ms IPS and it is definitely blurrier than OLEDs. Definitely getting OLED and especially QD-OLED is the way to go. Gaming monitors come at at least 240Hz but it is best to get newer models at 360Hz or even 480Hz - slightly lower input lag at the same frame rate - minimal but still. Also newer panels are just better. And lastly I recommend using VRR with frame rate limit. Less lag when GPU is not taxed at 100% and less lag with VRR than without. All set correctly (so also anti-lag features enabled) and even at 120fps there is zero perceivable lag. More fps -> even snappier resonse.
Regardung the crashes, i find that if i turn off nvidia reflex low latency, my game no longer crashes when running everything on max settings. My setup is a 7950x3d, RTX-4090, 64gbs RAM.
I have pretty much same setup (2x32 GB Ram and 13900K - which is pretty much same thing as 14900K) and I play low performance mode, everything off or on low and epic view distance.
Same problem here Toby. 7800x3d 4090 32gb DDR5 6400 MT/s C32 Mine still crashes. I can run PBO on or off. Still crash. UV GPU. Same. Crashes. I run 4K 120 thou. Still should run zero problems but nope. still crashes.
you can't fight outta bushes when you run max graphics... so I just drop my textures down to low, and then you can shoot from bushes... then the other settings I max out.
Had a video I found that helps my game work. Delete the blue files in win64 and anti easy cheat whenever it locks up. Go into epic launcher manage then verify to repair. It’s been working for me. Good luck
Since you're in such good relationship with Epic, can you please tell them that the game is unplayable? I have been talking to their support after having a ticket open and I just chatted with a bot. I sent them clear logs containing the error with the line of code where the game crashes and they told me that they couldn't fine any error in the log file, the error: PresentInternal(SyncInterval) failed at D:\build\++Fortnite\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\D3D12RHI\Private\D3D12Viewport.cpp:506 with error DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED. This happens constantly, I have a 9800x3D, 64GB, 4090, just formatted. No other game has issues. What do I need to do to get support from Epic?
@soberacidtrip look, I get it, but do you understand the money I spent to get this hardware to play at max settings? I'm beyond fuming, this is unacceptable! Especially because I can see from the logs myself that there are issues and Epic gave me the middle finger with a bot. It's not like they don't know, it's crashing to a lot of people, they just don't care. It would be nice for streamers to put them in the spotlight for this behavior, last season was very similar by the way.
@@pixel1145 Toby also bought a top of the line computer to play at max graphics. Honestly, this is one of the reasons I'm not upgrading. If there's a chance I'm gonna be stuck on performance mode even with a new machine then there's literally no point. I sympathise dude. Epic is one weird ass company.
It looks gorgeous, but my slow brain has trouble locating enemies with all the splendor of max settings, too many distractions for me, and 30-40 fps is far from ideal too :-) Performance mode doesn't run very smooth for me and looks ugly. The middle ground for me is DLSS Quality, medium textures, epic view distance, shadows off or low. The games till looks quite nice and runs at a stable 165 fps. My setup is RTX 3070 (laptop), Ryzen 7, 16 GB RAM.
2 different programs. Ps5 i would argue has more color and doesn't ai upscale.. except for pro now. Ps5 performance mode at 120 fps runs smoother than full graphics at 60 locked. Console regulate graphics to achieve smoothness while pc regulate fps and gives stutter Over all the full graphics is basically like pc without ray tracing. Except for pro which has ray tracing and ai upscaling. You have smoother play on ps. However in a comp shooter you want max fps and lowest video setting. Now of epic devs turned off all the shaders and give ps5 a real performance mode consoles would hold advantage over pc.
I win 3/4 games on ps5. If I had a PC I think would demolish every match and win 4/4. I will be getting 1 soon. Beware, Afghan ZB PeterBot will be here soon 😂
Wait, how in the world do you have zero ping??? Edit: 9:37 Oh, my God noooo! 🤣🤣😫😫 I notice you're running on windowed fullscreen, with that your game is taking a slight hit in performance. Also, DLSS on quality setting is a lot better performance wise, and visually there's essentially no difference to native.
Fullscreen causes a double image of the game where the lobby flickers into my actual game constantly. It's awful for me... DLSS is a lot blurrier image than native in long range fights, it's hard to make out enemies. But yeah if I was actually going to play like this, I would probably use DLSS buts it's a pretty significant disadvantage in fights over 150 meters. Performance is unfortunately my home.
@ it’s working today! Thank you. I’m very grateful for your island training and all your videos! Do you by any chance have one or have thought of making one for your advanced combat movement training like of your video? Something for slide cancel shots, leap frogs, mantling dupes etc I hear creators get benefits from visitors to their island and returning visitors etc so I’ll be sure to recommend your island to my friends who play
Are Epic not embarrassed? The game just crashes on modern computers and that's just considered okay to them? Random 2-5 second freezes are ok? Do they just expect their users to have to mess with settings until they find a combination that doesn't crash? lol
