I've been plaing with elite dangerous since 2015, on high graphics settings without problem with fairly high FPS. Meanwhile there was only a video card upgrade, years ago at 2017 (to GF 1050Ti).
When odyssey released i saw a fall in FPS in in horizons (i did not bought odyssey), that made the game not so enjoyable, but nothing changed in graphics. Then why is the lower FPS?
Update after update, the FPS is lower and lower since odyssey…
I've looked task manager performance data, and is see that the gpu usage is below 40%, but the CPU usage is around 70-90%, so it seems the game become a CPU hog since odyssey. Before that the usage was around 40-50%. Also i tried Ultra graphics, and medium, and the FPS difference wasn't much.
No other high CPU user processes are running, i disabled the useless, harmful things like defender, or update.
What happened? How they f-ed up the game to be like this? Anyone else noticed this, or everyone using OMGWTF cpus so you don't notice such things? 😀
Yeah my cpu was released in 2011 at lower mid level, but hey it was enough for ED:H until odyssey…
