The Complete Guide to Improving Performance and FPS in 2021 – Escape from Tarkov

by



In todays video, I will be covering performance in Escape from Tarkov and how you will be able to get the most FPS out of your game, this video should hopefully improve fps dramatically and help reduce your stutters. I will be going over both EFT Graphics settings and a bunch of graphics card and windows 10 optimizations.

  5. "Shadow quality to low"

    Screen says ultra.

    Edit: then you go and change it along with a few other things a minute later while talking about different settings.

    Best leaving the screen as how you have it while commentating 🙂

  6. Finally I can boost my FPS on my shitty pc 😀 (i7-9700kf, 16Gb ram hyperx fury 3200mhz cl16, gtx 1050ti oc version and everything is boosted to maximum)

  7. I managed to make it to 2:40 before I had top stop watching. A lot of this is not true. You're giving people BSG's specs which haven't been updated in ages and are not enough for running the game properly.

    8GB of RAM is plain insufficient. 16GB minimum (speed is less relevant).
    A 2.4 Ghz processor is woefully inadequate, and even 3.2 is below the minimum to have a decent experience.

    I had to OC my 4770K to 4.3 Ghz to have a decent experience. I run 16GB of DDR3. 1440p is barely playable and dropping the resolution only really helps you get away with a lesser GPU than my 2060, but not with reduced CPU and memory.

    4+ Ghz and 16+ GB are plain and simply the real minimum specification. You might be able to get away with a GTX1060 at 1080p, I consider the 2060 (or 1070) to be the minimum for 1440p and be prepared to buy a 3000 series or anolder **80 class card for 4K. At minimum. Meaning, 50-70 FPS. Don't bother playing Tarkov (or any online shooter) at 30 FPS. Just don't.

    For faster refresh monitors, you'll want to step up the GPU from a *60 to a *70 or *80 class or to a newer generation than what I mentioned above. You'll want 24+ GB of DDR4 memory (3200 Mhz is fine, RAM speed doesn't affect FPS that much) and a CPU no older than 3 years running at 4.5Ghz or more.

    On the other hand, the SSD is not a hard requirement I found, with an asterisk. If you only have one drive in the system, it should be an SSD. If you run multiple disks, you can get away with an HDD for Tarkov. The key here is that absolutely nothing else runs off that HDD at the same time (like, say, Windows). I frequently am the first to load, reaching "Waiting for players" as soon as 1 minute 30 in some cases and not going over 2 min 30 very often. An SSD can handle a lot more random access, so that's why it can handle multiple things running off it at the same time, but an HDD isn't fundamentally problematic for Tarkov. Note that a separate partition is not enough. The HDD from which Tarkov runs has to be physically separate from other drives that are being accessed.

    I've been comparing my system to other people's systems and how Tarkov runs for them at every opportunity, and this is the result of that research. I'd say my system runs it about as well as it possibly can. I do run at almost all settings maxed (but settings that go by check box or drop down menu are almost all disabled, these seem to cause drops in performance more than anything, YMMV). Things like view distance, textures, and so on seem to have a VERY small impact on performance, if any.

  19. I would highly recommend turning on XMP otherwise you are not getting the most out of your CPU and RAM. This can give anywhere from a 10-50fps increase depending on stock frequencies and the XMP profile.

  20. No just no. The minimum requirements are obsolete since they have never been updated from BSG since Closed Alpha.
    Even the lads at the EFT Wiki blindly refuse to update them like they are some Holy Totem…
    An Intel CORE II Duo @2.4Ghz can barely run Windows 10 nowadays, not Escape From Tarkov…
