Forspoken - PC Performance Thread
- Thread starter M. Wallace
- Start date
All low, if you bump textures to medium the perf keeps the same.
With FSR2 can get even better.
And this is with a PC port that seems really bad. Pretty impressive out of the little machine.
Your 10700K + RTX 3070 drops to some 25fps?
Turn down some settings or
Theres probably something wrong with your rig.
The Chichek area of the demo can drop me as low as 50fps at 4k max settings with no DLSS. 4090 and 5950x. CPU utilization is like 10% at most for me
CPU utilization can be tricky as you can bottleneck way below 100%. Better metric is gpu utilization. If it's below 95 or so youre probably CPU bound.
Anyone tested their 4080 yet? If I can get 4K DLSS quality with a steady 60 that's good enough for me
Yup, 4080 and 5800X3D. Locked 60@4k using DLSS Quality. It might drop in a few places, but I haven't noticed it yet.
Ah, is that what's happening here?
6700K and 3080 12gb here. Tested the demo. The game is super heavy GPU and CPU wise, 4k DLSS perf and Low LOD gives me pretty solid 60 fps so far, though the game doesn't feel entirely fluid. Cant say I saw any shader stutter, and if it was there it was very brief. CPU utilization was at 100% when first bottling the game, so it at least partially precompiles shaders. Disabling vsync in game and forcing driver one plus RTSS cap seems smoother somehow, might be a placebo though. SpecialK crashes the game when used with RTSS overlay. RTAO doesn't seem to be working in the demo. HDR is meh, it's pretty much SDR to HDR conversion, can look ok when tuned, but you don't miss much in SDR.
Overall, seems like a decent enough port, aside from the game being super heavy for some reason.

Because 100% for the CPU is every core and thread being maxed out. But a game can be limited based on the processing speed of a single thread. So even though the CPU has lots of free cores/threads its still waiting on that one to complete.
I'll repost here. System 6700XT 5600X 16GB-Ram. On High Settings, 1080P.
From OCAT:
Average FPS 61.78
Average Frame Times 16.19ms
99th percentile 18.94ms
Loading time on an NVMe.

I haven't noticed any shader comp issues. I'm using the updated drivers. At native 4K, The worst I've seen is a drop to 58fps twice in combat in the area after the first bridge (although on the bridge even with many enemies fps was well above 60s).
I've gone through the first bridge and reached the second, but I've only seen groups of enemies. Where is the boss fight?
Performance is just about the same for me in the demo with the steam overlay disabled
So i tried a little of the game on pc....it's really another game from the pc version....
It's way smoother and damn picture wise, it look good !!
For the little i played, i didn't get stutter , it was smooth.
I expected a worse pc port..and not as good as this graphic wise.
I put everything at max at 4k with dlss balanced, it's into 40fps with my 3070ti, 5900x and 32giga at 4000mhz ( nvme gen 4 too)

Wow, and it's only Gen 3 too which is awesome. It makes me wonder if Gen 4 is even faster.
Lol this lighting. All that white crush.I can't confirm shader issues because I'm testing the performance through the benchmark because I'm RDPing to the machine, but from what I can see it's using 11GB vram & 9GB RAM in the benchmark.
I'm definitely GPU-bound even with DLSS & RT off though on performance
Excuse the overblown HDR
Such a shame coming from FFXV's beautiful and natural lighting/GI.
Is anyone else having trouble with a controller on the PC demo? It's like the game can't decide if I'm using mouse/keyboard or a controller. The left stick is also controlling the view as well as the character movement.
I'm not one for repeating jokes, but are you telling me that this game runs totally fine on a 4080 at 4k with balance DLSS AND it's actually super fun to play so far?
For real, I've had a couple dips into the mid 50s and the first tutorial boss fight was really fun.
I'm glad I got this.
But to answer your question about quality DLSS. I was getting drops into the upper 40s for a second while fighting a couple monsters at a time, putting it on balanced cleared it up really nicely though.
Yeah 800p.
I think with enough shared Shader compilation, this could get to an OK place for the depth of the world, but I would say better than I expected from the initial offset
Be interested to see more folks impressions.
I think it looks that way since they're playing with HDR on and it didn't screen capture correctly.
So...I haven't read any impressions from anyone else yet but I just gave the demo a shot. I'm on an R9 5900x, 3080Ti, 32GB of RAM, installed on a 980Pro M.2. At 4k DLSS Performance, max settings including raytracing it would run right around 60fps, usually under but would sometimes spike to 75ish in that tutorial ravine. Ultra-performance didn't see much improvement but the game was insanely hitchy. Really really bad. When I dropped it to 1920p (just to see if it helped at all) it actually got worse...mid 40's...it was bizarre. Even when I then dropped it to 1440p DLSS Balanced it ran a little bit better framerate wise but was still horribly hitchy. Weird thing was when I switched it back to 4k I could only get it in the the low 50's with all of the hitching intact. Then I quit the game and booted up the demo again.
The difference was night and day. 4k DLSS Performance, motion blur off, max everything else (maybe standard shadows but also RT shadows)...ran right around 60fps again but it was way smoother, fantastic really. Load times are non-existent and its incredible. I hit "Continue" it fades to black quickly and then I'm in the game. It's like a slow blink.
I'll *probably* still wait for a sale but I was genuinely surprised at how well the demo runs and I'll enjoy messing around in it even more than I did on PS5 with how it's running.

Oh right yea, she's got the same monitor as me so yea I know what you mean.
RTGI would have really fixed a lot of their visual issues though haha. I hope the game is a success for them despite review scores and they continue to update and add upgrades over time.
how is RT in this game? Does it improve some of the weird lighting/shadows DF touched upon on ps5?
That is encouraging - the user mentioned when they went to fight a boss they noticed it (a stutter of some sort). Perhaps there? If it is not there during normal traversal and normal combat....
Edit
Also if you have less 12 or less GB of VRAM, you may want to try lowering the texture streaming setting. Apparently the high setting is meant for 12 GB + GPUs. If you have that with RT on, it might be causing issues perhaps if the GPU is running low on VRAM.
What is your drive speed? That is nice.
There is no global illumination so the lighting its the same
It definitely could run better, but it's not as bad as people were expecting. Perf at max settings with DLSS quality bounces around the mid 40s to mid 50s in heavier combat areas in the demo. I've seen one particularly nasty shader stutter when fighting the tall lady with the lamp. Cutscene with her model being introduced dropped framerate around 18 fps for a sec or so. Other than that, if they were there, they were relatively minor. It seems playable so far.
It looks noticeably better than the PS5 version so I can see folks choosing this over console. Personally, I'd wait for some patches first.
I have a 3080, 32GB of ram, and a 5800x.

Try disabling Steam Input for this.
Right-click in library > Properties > Controller > Disable Steam Input
I've noticed stutters when getting near specific structures. Such as the little towers that let you scan the area and mark a side activity to do. I haven't noticed it otherwise.
