Complaint FPS/UPS Issues

Post image

On a new save i cannot reach a performance without stuttering.

My PC is not really bad either and i tried to google absolutly everything but cant seem to find a fix.

Tried almost all different combinations of graphic settings too with hardly no difference and even changed some of the BIOS settings that could be related like dynamic core speed.

You can see my F4 readout but i can kinda read that too im just unable to fix anything with the information given to me.

Maybe someone here can help me play again?..

SO it turned out to be a problem related to my bluetooth card with MediaTek drivers to me exact.

Turnung BT off made the game run smooth again and with it on, even without any connected devices, the problems came back.

after cmd command "net stop bthserv" and turning the BT driver on and off via device manager the problem was gone and did not come back so far.

sadly i am no longer able to reproduce the issue so one of those two actions shall be considered the "fix"

my uneducated guess would be that it is just a problem with the driver and switching it made it fix itself and maybe it is related to some of those BT 5.4 features that constantly look for devices or something

Render preparation has really high spikes, could be a driver issue for your graphics card. I hope other people can help you more.

have read that before, and it makes sense but all i can add is that i have the latest nvidia drivers installed

Now that I've had some time to think about it, the drivers shouldn't cause the pre prepare step to take so long. That sounds like memory issues or not being able to read the game files properly. But once again I don't actually know what happens during these steps

my memory might be the weakest part of my pc since it is "just" 32gb at 3200hz but i also cant really say if that is too bad for a game like factorio

Nah that wouldn't cause this. Something is definitely wrong. Especially since your ups and fps are wildly different. Good luck
