Howgwarts Legacy Lag & Frame Drop FIx!!!
Ойындар
**(UPDATE/EDIT: Thanks to a lot of you in the comments I tried running with Nvidia DLSS off and ran DLAA. Making the change with all my other changes I can run on Ultra with no problem. Runs just as smooth as High and looks way better. Also the step of going into exploit settings seems to not be needed after doing this. Definitely had to keep ray tracing off and turn off DLSS. Thank you guys. Love that we found a resolution together!!)**
So you have been waiting patiently or rather impatiently waiting for Hogwarts Legacy to drop. The game finally gets here and you get peppered with rendering issues, lag, fps drops and hitches....
In todays video I go over a few tricks that helped me in my quest for finding a temp fix until the developers optimize the game graphics and send out a patch fixing the issues. I am in no way solely responsible for some of the ideas in the video. I am just a gamer who searched tirelessly and endlessly all the while making attempts of my own to try and fix the issues I was facing.
As stated in the video no one problem is the same for all PC users, but this is what has worked for me. I hope that it does the same for you and if it does please drop a like and comment and let me know if it did. Would be much appreciated.

A tip about VSync. Games VSync are heavyer than Video Card's. TURN OFF the in game VSync and TURN ON the VSync on the NVIDIA Control Panel - Program "Hogwarts Legacy" Settings

Thats not always true, digital foundry has mentioned this multiple times already, sometimes the in-game vsync really IS better than nvidia's cp, you only use nvidia cp if the game's vsync is broken or bad implemented. This is the bad thing about pc gaming, you have to do devs jobs multiple times because you never know what is working and what is not and need to test it by yourself, sometimes rivatuners frame limiter is worse than nvidia's cp and sometimes the in-game fps limiter is better than both, there is a lot of testing to do on pc, this is sad and it gets really depressing after few years of doing it.

@@PEEKY.produkcja I dont know enough if one is more demanding than the other but drivers can control vsync the same way a game would. disabling it in a game wouldnt turn it off it just doesnt turn it on, so if its on with drivers the game doesnt disable vsync it just allows the frames to go up and get stopped by the drivers.

Yes man ! this really help .not much but helped . Why is playin on pc so strain 🤧 .Do you know if this method work for another games ?
It's seems to be related with world loding, the game has a lot of hidden loding screens that may not be optimize as of now, causing the GPU to hit 100% utilization and then you have the frame drops going to the Menu gives it time to load, walking will do the same.

RTX 3090 , I9 12900kf , 32GB ram , 4K monitor : I had huge FPS drop problems and what helped me - was to turn off Ray tracing and set upscaling to MAX (i know weird) when i had upscale like 0,10 or 0,5 i had around 60 fps and it was droping to 30s even lower then i turned it to 1 and i have pretty much zero problems with FPS game looks crispt AF sometimes there is some stutter but its very light. All my other settings are set to ULTRA and things like motion blur etc is turned off and DLSS set to quality Maybe this will help someone else too.
Yeah.. I learned about this on another site, but it did help a little for me. The game is extremely hard on ram and the gpu, more so than most games of this genre.
Glad to see this actually works with clips. Someone said changing field of view from anything but default also tanked their fps. You should try with dlss off and render in native 4k and see what you get. Also is your game on an nvme or SATA SSD?

I typically would say yes, but I just got to the outskirts of Hogsmeade and the big village out North where you fight your first set of Wizards and I’m still not having an issue. My big issue was consistently in this area of the video I would freeze. No matter how many times I had been through it. Doing these things fixed that immediately for me. I’ve been playing for 10 hours plus after these changes and have not ran into any other frame drops. I had a slight and I need very slight hang up when I went into the restricted area of library. It quickly fixed after 2 seconds tho.

Your solutions are similar to what others have released days ago. I would suggest you try to shorten your video length and just summarize the fix and not go too much into detail on areas that cause the stutters because everyone that came here already knew that. So what you can do is shorten it for those who may find your video first so they don't have to sit through the whole thing. 8min for a 30 seconds tweaking of settings is just a little too much imo. Just my 2-cents, peace. P.S it's hard to gauge if these issues will be long term because we haven't had a Day-1 patch from Nvidia yet and that usually comes during global release
