I truly hope that there will be a patch or a driver that gives this game better performance in certain areas of the gameworld. Hinterlands is really bad at the moment even when lowering settings. It really dampens the joy of exploration when the FPS is all over the place...

Ive found out that the Driver 344.75 causing Vsync to go crazy with GPUs specially for the 900 Series causing variable Framerates in any Game not getting capped at 45, 30 or 15 it only uses teh max Refresh rate of the Screen at thats it. I tested AC Unity, Far Cry 4 and DA Inquisition and all of the have it.

So I decided to play a few hours with the internal fps display on and I realized that the perceived low fps isn't so much low fps as perhaps irregular frametimes / microstuttering. I get between 50 - 90 fps (avg. 60 - 75) in the Hinterlands but anything below ~60 feels considerably worse than it should. Looking out at the starting camp in the Hinterlands my fps display says 50 but it feels remarkably close to when I play the first Dark Souls @ 30 fps. It really only happens when alot of NPCs are in proximity although it doesn't happen as much if at all in that first big inquisition camp in the Hinterlands. I've played plenty of games in the 50 - 60 fps range without noticing any such jitter before.

 

This could of course be an issue with the fps counter and not actual microstuttering, as in my actual fps being alot lower. Again, this is with OC'd 4770k and 780ti, 8 gb ram and g-sync at 1080p. This is the first time I've experienced that kind of jitter at such high fps. Settings are ultra preset with fadetouched textures. 

 

On another note, using the resolution slider does absolutely nothing for me (might be a g-sync thing?). 

 

PS. LOVING THE GAME SO FAR!

I've been waiting for this game for two years and I'm trying really hard to be objective but the disappointment is getting to me :(

 

I know, right! That's why I'm even bothering posting about my performance issues. Had it been any other game I'd just give it six months and play the patched version once everythings ironed out. Good thing the game is worth the hassle though.

Everything on Ultra at 1080p (MSAA turned off because I don't need two AA's) with textures set to "fade touched" - no idea what that entails, but it's over ultra -  and the game runs constant at 60 fps. The only thing I absolutely find jarring are those cut scenes. Gah... They are awful. I want this Nug-crap taken care of now, thank you.

As I read through this thread I find that a lot of the people having issues with performance are running NVidia cards.  I'm not a fanboy of either card I have owned NVidia and ATI/AMD cards over the years.  I just happen to have AMD at this time.  NVidia has been spending a lot of money over the past few years though to get as many developers as possible to optimize their games on their platforms.  Its nice to see some AAA games getting some AMD love.  

 

I have not owned an NVidia card since my SLI GTX 285's because they have gone rather high on price to performance the last few years.  When I bought my first R9290X for instance it was neck and neck with the top of the line NVidia card out at that time but was $150 cheaper than the NVidia card.  

 

Anyway this is a brand new game I would expect the drivers for both companies will only get better in the next couple weeks or so and also I would expect Bioware will tweak some stuff as well.

I have a similar problem. It happened once I upped all video graphic settings to Ultra.
I can't figure out how to undo it now that I can't even launch the game. :(

GTX 760 2gb with latest 340.75 drivers

16 gb of RaM

AMD FX 8120 3.1 Ghz

 

Benchmark shows avrg - 39 FPS; min 27 with everyting on high, tessalation normal, msaa off, on 1080p.

But In reality in the first locations of the game my frames occasionaly drop bellow 20. :(

Any other AMD FX processor users feel that they are is experiencing CPU bottlenecks?

4770k@4.2ghz. 32gb pc2400 ram. 2-840 evo's in raid 0. 7970's in xfire 1150/1600mhz. All watercooled.

 

1080p on a lightboost monitor. Ultra on everything but no msaa, fxaa on high.

 

I get 50-120 fps. Varies on where you are and where you are looking but it does not stutter. Very smooth in fact. I am blown away by the visuals. The ice looks amazing, even the walls look amazing, great use of tessellation, everything has depth, the rocky paths, tiles etc..

 

 

FYI. I have a g19 and the lcd screen monitors all my temps, ram, gpu and cpu usage, clocks and voltages. This game has the biggest cpu utilization I've ever seen. GPU's don't hit 100% much at all but all 8 cpu cores (physical and hyperhtread) are firing like mad, almost like I'm running  prime 95 torture test. It also uses about 8gb of ram, most I've seen a game use yet too.

 

Load times are still very long, way longer than I'm used to with this rig.

 

Strange glitch yesterday. I started the game where I left off and fps would never go above 48, seemed locked to 48 fps but would drop lower, never higher, not even in a room staring at a floor. It was also very juddery, not smooth at all. Played around and found out that turning off vsync fixed it. 50-135 fps again. Was working fine with the same settings the day before, nothing had changed. Now I can't play with vsync enabled. Problem with Mantle and a 120hz monitor maybe?

Considering that both the Xbox One and PS4 use AMD cards it's no surprise that Inquisition runs better on Mantle and good AMD cards. I have no problem with this, My problem is that the performance impairment is across all cards and the game is not making use of the available system resources. It's a serious technical issue but I am sure eventually will be solved because it is so blatant.

i have an nvidia 780ti oc evga, and my game runs smooth like butter.
I think that you all guys should care more about your pc, or just simply buy a console, is more easy to manage

With 12GB RAM and an intel core i7 I tend to be able to run any game I want with ease on the highest settings - but Dragon Age Inquistion is unplayable on the lowest settings - I've turned everything off or to low. I've updated my Nvidia driver and done almost everything I can but nothing works and I don't know why. I've been waiting for this game for two years and I'm trying really hard to be objective but the disappointment is getting to me :(

I have the same equipment the same problem and i feel the same way

No slow-downs at starting camp Hinterlands or in the intro when you walk out of the hut and all the NPCs are standing in line?

 

As for the care-part, I'm actually playing it on a studio computer which is kept impeccably clean due to various projects being stored on it. No porn-surfing, no pirated software or downloaded movies, nothing. Also, everything else works great.

Just out of curiosity, what would give you the impression that "pirated software or porn-surfing or downloaded movies" would have necessarily a negative impact on a game's performance? 

 

This to me makes little to no sense, so I'm wondering where you would get this idea from.. if the above mentioned activities got your system infected with a virus or malware, that I could understand.. but you made no mention of that so..

Ok, my pc is:

 

Matherboard ASUS Saberthooth 990 FX

CPU AMD FX 8350

GPU ASUS Radeon R9 290X Direct CU II OC

8Gb Ram DDR3 1866

Windows 7 64 bit

HDD Seagate Barracuda 7.200 rpm 3Tb

SSD Samsung 850 PRO 128Gb (Only for Windows)

 

Driver Catalyst 14.11.2 Beta (For MANTLE)

 

To me, with mantle on, the game run simply great. Im on Ultra in everyting, the only thing i dont use is MSAA, because is usless and very heavy (but i have enabled via catalyst panel the Anti Aliasing Mode "enhance application setting"). In game benchmark shows around 47 fps lowest, and around 58 fps medium (but im not sure is an accurate benchmark, playing the game seems far better and smoothing).

i7 4790 3.6 GHz + MSI Z97 Gaming 5

Nvidia GTX 980 4GB (latest driver of course)

16GB ram

 

I started with the ultra preset and easily reached 60 FPS in the prologue/Haven. I later toned it down to high to see if that helped with the random crashes I'm getting, but no go.

 

FPS in the Hinterlands is 30/35ish, and I had one really bad case of shadow flickering in the mountains there. I also had this mesh glitch happen twice, see Cullen's face (pic is spoiler free). The screenshot is from Haven with the Ultra preset, but it also happened during the shadow flickering problem in the Hinterlands on High settings.

 

So yeah... I'm hoping for a fix soon. Other than the glaring and near unacceptable performance issues it has, it is an awesome game, but I don't want my first playthrough experience ruined.

That is really weird. A GTX 980 4GB and 30/35fps?

 

Something is definitely wrong with the game's optimization.

1080p, low settings for everything except textures (because it auto'ed to medium) and mesh (Because high fixes the hair).

FPS is OK, though it got down to the 20s in the Hinterlands. Which is worse than Battlefield 4 was giving me for Medium settings, if anyone was using that as a benchmark.

A few odd graphical issues, including the thing illustrated by Endee. And a couple of crashes, though at least we've got regular auto-saves.

 virus or malware, that I could understand.. but you made no mention of that so..

 

What else would I possibly refer to?

What resolution? That isn't 1080p, is it?

My resolution is currently set at 1680 x 1050. Haven't changed that yet.

 

I'm gonna try and fiddle with the settings and the like some more. If I find anything I'll post it here.

Hey, if you don't specify its open to interpretation, is all I'm saying. 

 

I can't remember a time I've gotten malware of mucked up my system by doing any of the things you mention.

Hmm, I got a fairly large performance boost by moving from Windows 7 to 8.1. Before I was at worst dropping below 40 fps on certain areas, but now I can maintain 60 fps in those same spots. Windows 8 has a few more features on DX11.1, which reduce the CPU overhead of the renderer compared to what you get on Windows 7. So if you're CPU limited in this game, it's something to consider.

 

Now if they'd just fix the SLI bugs, I'd be one happy camper.
