4080super underwhelming performance at 1080p in space marine 2
Posted by R6_nolifer@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 30 comments
I’m a competitive player and my buddy got me Space Marine 2.
When I saw that I’m only getting 80-90 fps with dips to 49fps
I wanted to cry .
Any 4080super users with similar issues ?
My specs are :
GPU: 4080super Zotac CPU: AMD RYZEN 7 7700X 8-cores 4.5GHZ RAM: 16GB 4800mhz DDR5
My GPU and CPU usage is around 50% on both during gameplay .
Let me know if I need to provide more info and thank you .

First off you have very slow RAM, second, thats probably about right. My friend with a 7900XTX is getting about 100ish frames in game on Ultra with a 7600X but his RAM is faster so that will help a bit. With my 6800XT I get about 70 - 80 with a 7700X. I think the game is both A. In need of a bit of optimization, which might come on a "day 1 patch." And B. The game is very CPU intensive, turning down cloth simulation gives some frames back as well.

Appreciate the help, thank you

Hopefully its not hampering your enjoyment of the game too much, Brother.
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Nah, any help is very much appreciate and the RAM remark seems to be unanimous when I checked all the replies
ThisDumbApp@reddit
Yeah, thats the base speeds DDR5 runs at, are you sure you just dont have XMP turned on in the BIOS?
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
I’ll check once I’m home
Thanks for reminding about this
MetroSimulator@reddit
Just a correction, you use an AMD MB, so you need to activate EXPO, xmp is for Intel processors. Second, just a top, if you're going to buy new ram, look for a 2 slot kit, memory controller gets sad and tired with 4 ram sticks, 2x32gb with 6000cl36 would be the sweet spot for your config.
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Definitely gonna get new ram next week
I always try to go for 2 sticks
Thank you
MetroSimulator@reddit
Yeah AMD is in the spotlight now but the memory controller isn't as good as Intel's, not that I care with all the problems with the 13 and 14 generation, but realistic I heard a lot of relates that 2 6000mhz sticks are the best you can go right now, just always remember you're looking for EXPO ram sticks, but if you want to have a better cxb, Corsair have a line of RAM with dual profiles, it works xmp and expo.

Is there no 64gb 6k cl30?
MetroSimulator@reddit
I'm pretty sure cl36 is the best one for ddr5 in this configuration, I could be wrong.
PotatoFeeder@reddit
That a software thing?
Just searched, 64gb 6kcl30 is a thing, so the hardware exists
MetroSimulator@reddit
Nah, then it's my mistake, it's just I've never found an 6000cl30 ram module, nice to know.
ltecruz@reddit
Temps?
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
GPU 67c CPU 86c
Significant_Apple904@reddit
Yup CPU bottleneck all around, 4800mhz RAM speed doesn't help either

Thank you
No_Guarantee7841@reddit
4800 is just horrendous... You could be losing 30%+ cpu performance from that compared to 2*16gb 6000cl30.
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Yeah most likely it’s ram thank you
Crafty_Life_1764@reddit
Jeah time to buy a new monitor 1440p go for oled and use your gpu adequately.
IGunClover@reddit
Your RAM. Why play 1080p when you have a 4080.
Sphearow@reddit
What's the CL on that RAM? Shit's way too slow you cheaped out on the RAM a bit too much.
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Got a prebuilt but I get what you saying
Sphearow@reddit
Ah that's fair enough. Lots of pre-builts are advertised with a great CPU/GPU but are given cheap storage, RAM, mobo and PSU.

Will keep eyes open for that in the future
Thanks man

temps? settings? realized it’s possibly unoptimized? checked your ram usage???????????
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Ultra settings , 13680mb(ram), 85c CPU and 66c GPU (temps)
I’d think it’s not optimized but I’ve seen ppl pulling off higher numbers on similar specs
PM-Your-Fuzzy-Socks@reddit
is that ram used by the game or ram currently used total?
R6_nolifer@reddit (OP)
Sorry I’m a bit of a noob
I’m running the game with Msi afterburner
It’s ram used by the game when I play I think, Cuz the other value shows the overall ram (4878mb)

CPU limited game and your CPU performance is being held back a decent amount by using DDR5 4800 Memory.
