What are the LOD settings in the usercfg.opt that you have found work with the RTX3070? I find anything about 2.0 creates significant stutters.
With LODs at 2.0 my VRAM usage is 5.7 GB. At LOD 3.0 it goes to 6.0 GB, but I also get stutters, although there should be around 2 GB VRAM still available.
Higher LOD settings are pretty CPU heavy, so you’re probably CPU limited when you get the stutters, not GPU. (Being GPU limited rarely causes stutters at all.)
True, it is indeed mainly CPU limited when looking at the FPS window. What are the main drivers there to improve without reducing quality too much? Any suggestions?
At LOD 4 is looks really stunning with no signicant pop in anymore.
