It's definelty something with the engine cause the issue is too similar to the one I already mentioned from Warframe! Here even a guy with an 1080TI SLI System Here are some more findings on the internet where a lot of people are having the same issue with High-End rigs and low FPS. It's not the hardware in this case and tweaking the detail-settings would be just a workaround or a last resort! capped max framerate again.Įdit: Maybe it has to do with the shadow of the sun, which has been changed several times while being on the same place. Even after /reloadui (resets anything which could come from Lua code)Īfter relog: Ta-da. (just pressing a key to prevent being kicked)Īfterwards move towards the market with the vendor NPCs and stop. You can easily reproduce it by standing on the bridge in front of hundings palatial hall for about 15min. They did do an update to better take advantage of multiple cores, but for me that did not help the FPS drop in populated areas. So, I would not expect that to change unless ZOS does a major engine update which I find highly unlikely. I don't do PVP though, so cannot speak to performance there.ĮDIT: Also note that the FPS drops have been in the game for me since launch 5 years ago. Since using the addon my fps rarely dip below 60. I recommend you try it in case the draw distance is some how affecting you in your situation. That is what the addon I referenced really helped. My FPS would always drop significantly in populated areas though and GPU load would be low. I also have not experience deteriorating performance over time (though most of my play sessions are under 3 hours). Hmm, I also have a 2080 Ti, but a less powerful CPU (i7 5930K at 4.5 GHz), and do not experience issues in small caves. Saw similar problem like that in Warframe some months ago. Kinda a problem from them addressing the video memory and kinda overloading it. Well it also happens in small caves and is not bound to "how much is going on" actually. There are a lot of options in it, but I have it only reduce draw distance.

When out in the wild I can enjoy the max draw distance, but when things in towns pull it down due to single threaded CPU limitations of the game, it will dynamically reduce draw distance to keep my frame rate as I set it. I use the following addon to dynamically adjust settings: The draw distance is most likely the issue in heavily populated areas. Rig is pretty decent with i9-9940x and 2080 ti!Īnd I only have like the 5 most important addons installed nothing more.Īny setting in the grahpics that may cause that trouble?

It's very weird cause I get constant 160+ fps in other mmorpgs also on Ultra settings.

Is it normal that fps drop down to unbearable 30 fps in ESO? (mostly when a lot of bodies lie around or in some areas).
