Nvidia GTX 1080, i5-6500 (not the best to be certain but has worked in the past). Monitor locks at 60fps. Worked mostly fine before Beyond Light, saw some fps drops during season of Arrivals towards the end. When Beyond Light dropped, I had horrible problems, would need to turn in a circle after loading into a destination to get my frames to play nice and not freeze up. That cleared up before the raid dropped back then, and had drops that would go down from 55-60 afterwards. Nothing too bad, slightly annoying only. Remained the same for the most part until this season (thought for the longest time the teleporting enemies issue was related but that's a separate issue it seems). With this season, I've seen 2 new issues crop up. FPS tanking down to 40 when enemies are spawning in during Override and Vault of Glass (conflux and Oracle encounters only oddly enough), and random drops (down to 45) even when nothing is happening. The first one, could just be the large number of enemies being loaded in causes it as I do see drops in other activities like Gambit but not as bad. But the random drops seems to happen whenever it wants. I've had it happen where my fireteam in VoG is just standing around during a break with no enemies and no one moving around, and it'll drop to 45fps for a second then go back to 60. And it is dropping those frames, as things get a bit stuttery when it happens so not just a glitch with the fps counter in-game. (even has happened just sitting in orbit talking to others) As of 3.2.0.3, the random frame drops seems to happen slightly more often. Not certain if anything was changed for performance but seems to have made it slightly worse from my end. This is with graphics settings set to low, render resolution down to 50% and FOV reduced as well. Not sure if the above can help the devs but if it does I'm happy to let them know what I'm seeing.

  • Let me guess, you have high cpu usage and low gpu usage?

  • CPU usage is more than GPU usage, though always been that way for my rig to my knowledge. Haven't seen it be different this season, but could be missing something while playing.

  • It's an old cpu for sure. These new cpu's amd 5000 series , intel 11th gen will push your gtx 1080 to max usage and improve performance a lot. Much higher fps than what your old cpu can do.

  • Quite true, a newer cpu would probably help my issues here. Though that wouldn't explain the fps drops that I see when nothing is happening, like when I'm in orbit and occasionally it'll drop from 60 to 45 with no increase in cpu or gpu usage before or during that dip. That falls into line with what some others are seeing from what I've read on these threads for a while now. I plan to do a full upgrade eventually, just have to be lucky enough to get some of the parts these days is the thing.

  • Your gpu is fine for this game at 1080p. For cpu i'd get at least 6 core 12 threads minimum.
