Best results i get with my 1070\8600k is 1440p, locked 30 fps 90% of the time with rivatuner, and a mix of high-medium-low setting, 60 fps run like shit so i give up...
Quality image is still a blurry mess and i still have some hiccups even if rivatunes says that i have no frame dips...
Remedy said that their patch is gonna be ready for mid to late september lol, last time i buy a remedy game at launch, i already get fucked 2 times by them, i learned my lesson.

Finally found the optimal way for me to play this game. Using a 2080 ti on a b6 oled I am running the game in 50hz with DLSS upscaling the picture from native 1440p to 4k and with rtx disabled for shadows and GI (and volum lights on medium) Much much better picture quality over 1080p DLSS with less jaggies and a less grainy picture overall (disabling RT GI improves IQ itself a lot with less moving grains on walls) Furthermore my frame rate is locked to 50 fps even in combat and all the stuttering and random drops are gone. I use the v sync in the Nvidia control panel and have rivatuner at 50 so my frame times is good (though the dx 12 stutters are still there)

30fps cap
Game is running on my rig at a perfect 30fps besides the DX12 stuttering which seems like someone might have found a fix for so I'm keen on trying that out! The game runs in the mid 30fps to 60fps range when uncapped.

No, i don't like to have geforce experience installed on my pc.
Today i'm gonna try 4k with everything on low just for laugh...
I get mostly 60fps at 1440p maxed out with all the ray tracing effects and thats using a regular 2080 with DLSS on... Do get the odd occasional hiccup though where the GPU seems to idle for a sec or two.
It should be safe if you're generally a careful user but it all depends if you're frequently getting malware or not. If it fixes stuttering, and you're not always on dodgy sites, I'd be fine disabling it.
yes, my 2080Ti literally sounds like it's about to just blow my case over onto it's side through the side panel vents haha
It's actually hitting thermal limit of 84C during this game (which it doesn't always do)
This is my exact setup, LG B6 OLED hooked up to a 2080Ti, 4K (DLSS 1440), but I have everything maxed out. I'm thinking of lowering some things cuz when stuff is blowing up everything it sometimes drops below 60.
Do you have V-Sync on? Is there a way to "lock" it at 60? Does V-Sync adaptively drop it as frames drop and then go back up to 60?
yes I have v sync on. V sync will be dropped and you will get stutter if your GPU is unable to generate 60 fps or a frame in 16.6 ms, so if you want a locked 60 you need to drop some settings so your GPU is always generating 60 per second. I have the most important ray tracing options on so 60 at 1440p DLSS up to 2160 is no alternative for me ( it is impossible to get a locked 60 fps at 1440p DLSS on a 2080 ti with the rtx settings maxed, only 1080p DLSS works but looks really bad). 50 fps with a few RTX settings dropped on the other hand manages it easily.

I'm desperately trying to upgrade my 1070 to play this comfortably at 1440p but it seems like it's having performance issues all around. Am I better off waiting for performance patches?
If you do it on a per exe basis, on programs you trust aren't going to deploy malware, you will be fine.
Unless the FBC is real, and Remedy work for them, you should be safe to do it here.
Try restarting after the exploit protection change. Try closing all web browsers. Try disabling your GPU overclock if applicable. Try turning ON the low latency mode in NVCP. Some combination of that fixed it for me, or at least reduced its occurrence by like 95%. It went from very common to very very rare.
Also, Charge (the gun variant) is like the ultimate "fuck your frame rate" weapon with RT debris on. 😂 love it.
Anyone else having some issues with global reflections? I'm not talking performance issues (which are there of course) but it often just looks... wrong? Metal frames around some doors for example can look like they are made of pyrite or something. It can actually look rather weird.
Yeah everyone they are pretty buggy sometimes they even affect the main character, the room where you get the gun from the last director at the start of the game for example.
Edit: No, stutters are still in my game. The worst.

If it's really something in the game triggering windows exploit protection surely remedy should release a hotfix
I think it's more related to DX12 than Control specifically. This fix was initially used for Battlefield and Metro in DX12 mode, people just decided to test it in Control and it also worked.
I get a solid 60 FPS with my i7 6700K and Nvidia 1070 with the following settings: 1080p resolution and scaling, ultra textures and highest texture filtering, object level of detail on high, shadows and shadow filtering on medium, SSAO ON, global and screen space reflections on medium, volumetric lighting on medium, and antialiasing on 2X. Glad I have a 1080P tv so the IQ actually looks clear at that resolution.
Play through Steam (no, seriously). Steam's control (hehe) handling is so good I pretty much play all my games through there.
No matter how I adjust the settings, it hovers around 95-98%. I heard things tend to happen when it's above 95%, but no matter how little I tone the graphics down, the GPU goes all out. I reseated by GPUs and will try again once the servers are back up. If it still doesn't work then I'll try just one GPU
Are you guys able to launch the game now? It says Server offline to me and won't let me play it. I can just run the executable directly, but I'm scared of the cloud save replacing my local one once the servers are online again.
Don't worry, if files don't match it will ask which version to keep.
Thank you! I wasn't sure how it worked on the EGS, my first time playing there. Good to have confirmation. :D
I get the message every time I launch the game because weirdly it never sends the latest version when I leave the game, so I have to chose the local file almost every time.
I'm about 8 hours in running on a 6700k, 1080, 16gigs of ram and an M2 SSD and everything has been great. I'm playing at 1440p, rendering at 1440p with most of the settings at medium and everything runs very smooth. I'm guessing that the game is dropping below 60 in heavy scenes, but I don't have an FPS counter on and my G-sync monitor does a great job keeping everything smooth.
same here, the non-GPU related stutter is still there. Getting it even when gpu utilization is below 90.
If you are not at your FPS cap, your GPU is going to go "all out" in order to push higher frame rates (so long as your not CPU limited). So 99% GPU usage is totally normal if you aren't capping your FPS.
The dx 12 stutter is really strange. It occurs even when GPU and CPU load is below 80 and sometimes when I restart the game, it disappears . But then after a hour, it appears again in full force. Have tried all the solutions provided in this thread but nothing works. Has anyone found a permanent fix, working over several gaming instances?
Yeah, my Razer Blade has a 2070 MaxQ and runs great at 1080p max settings. Like really impressive.
This is going to sound totally blasphemous but I think I enjoy playing with a controller more than Kb/m. I played the majority at 1080/60ish with dips on a mix of medium / high on a dying rig i7 3770K/Titan X Maxwell. Out of curiosity, just locked it to 30 and maxed everything out at 1440, easily achievable 30fps if you're messing around.
I think the hold out for a completely new rig will wait for Vampire/Cyberpunk. I was tempted but I'm going to wait and go overboard later in the year.
