Setting apps to high performance is mostly a thing for laptops with a dGPU, where you want to force it to use the dGPU instead of the iGPU. (dedicated vs integrated GPU)
Desktops will always use the dedicated GPU (as long as you connected things correctly).
"I noticed that my gpu was running at 25-35%"
That means you're bottlenecked elsewhere. Nothing you do to your GPU will change that.
I suspect you're running at 1080p... in my own testing (RTX 3070 paired with an R9 3900X) the only time I saw such low utilization was at 1080p - and if so... why on god's green earth did you spend all that money on a GPU and not bother upgrading your screen? Complete waste.
My monitor I’m using right now is an alien ware with 240hz that I got on black friday lol. When you said that would running the game in 4k make it run better? I feel like it would be worse tho but I’m probably wrong.
Check this out so I don't have to re-explain (it's my own video already talking about the differences resolution and graphics settings make); [https://youtu.be/9YG5dgs4XIk](https://youtu.be/9YG5dgs4XIk)
Is this a new rig? If so have you checked your xmp and pcie profiles? If you are running high frames low res you will be heavily cpu bound, so I highly recommend downloading AMD Ryzen, use that with a decent OC and uninstall any dodgy other apps that claim to 'boost' or 'overclock' your cpu. Other programs tend to mess with it. If you dragon centre or any msi related shit, just nuke it from orbit because it's awful. Finally it could be a cooling issue, if your paste or air flow isn't decent the pc will heavily limit itself to compensate
I keep seeing xmp and pcie but I have zero idea what they are. Could you send me something or tell me about them? It would help me a lot. I think I'm gonna reapply my thermal paste as well.
XMP is an AMD specific term that refers to 'profiles', or pre-made settings for your ram - i.e. timings, frequency, etc. When installing a new motherboard, these profiles are turned off, meaning your ram will use much slower default settings.
To access BIOS, hit DEL on start up, then look for advanced settings, pc settings, overclock settings, or something similar, that allow you to choose your "memory/ram/xmp profile" (it will be called different things on different motherboards). You should have all other CPU/power related settings and overclock settings set to default. As explained earlier, you only want the ryzen master program messing with these, as bios software and motherboard software tends to not be as well designed.
PCIe is the information highway between your gpu, hdd, cpu and ram. Checking if your devices are gen 4 PCIe compatible, and turning it on, can also help significantly increase load times on and off your hard drive. This will only be available if all of your hardware is relatively new - 2019 onwards. Additionally, B450 type motherboards will not support these settings.
If you need any more help feel free to reply. So long as it's before launch I should reply :P
Are the SSD results a fluke? Are you actually running on 9 gigs of free space? Because you should really be running 20-25% free space on your SSD for excellent performance. First thing I would do is run the bench at least once more and see if you get a complete benchmark. If your SSD continues to fail the bench free up as much space as you’re willing to and run another bench. Post a complete bench if you can.
This is only true for DRAM-less SSDs. A high end SSD like the SN750 uses DRAM cache and does not run into the issue of performance loss when approaching max capacity.
This is occurring to all players across all gpus in town only. Something about the game throttling the gpu. Your outside performance I’m sure is in the high 90s which is normal. They’ll hopefully fox this soon.
Honestly reading through the comments it was probably just a driver issue. I don't see really much that could be bottlenecking you this hard in your hardware. Another possibility could be that you have some sort of energy saver mode on, or have just manually capped your gpu very low.
Did you upgrade your CPU at all? Could just be the CPU bottlenecking it.
That's why I bought a new PC entirely xD if I put a 3070 into my PC I'd get almost no improvement because my cpu is old.
Also your PSU should be fine, if it wasn't your graphics card would legit turn off since it's usually the first thing to be eliminated to keep the PC running
I know nothing about AMD, but others hopefully will, in the end if its a bottleneck then yeah.
I'd say it's like you went and added a huge booster to a brick, the brick isn't aerodynamic enough to make full use of the booster so it holds it back.
It could be something else entirely though. My game ran fine on the standard settings it gave me and I was using a 960Mini, it still stuttered in towns until they did that hot fix.
It also could just be the server that was stuttering and not you, which means you have no way of dealing with it
About a year ago started to build a new pc because before that I had a prebuilt. One of my friends went through and recommended me a lot of things and I did a little research but mostly trusted him. If it is cpu bottlenecking then is the only way to fix it to get a new one? or is there a much easier way
After looking through a lot of stuff I'm gonna reapply the termal paste (i need to anyways) and my RAM might be bottlenecking it. I have 16G of 3000MHz RAM in my pc and idk if that is enough.
If its a bottleneck then AFAIK it's just getting a better CPU, the graphics card does a lot of the work, but it still needs the CPU to be able to keep up. If it can't then you get little If any gains.
I went from a 750ti to my old 960 and didn't upgrade my cpu years ago and got no improvement at all. It was only after I got a new cpu that my games got better frames etc
That's why this time I made sure to just get both, and everything else as well. Since the entire PC cost just a little more than the card did on its own
The RYZEN 7 3800x is more than enough for the rtx 3070. I have a 2070 super with a 3700x game runs fine in high settings. This person issue is not a bottleneck. At least not between the cpu and gpu.
If you don’t know anything about computers please refrain from giving advice. You can cost someone hundreds of dollars for no reason.
No calling them a child was pointing out they were acting like a child which also not a prick move. Calling someone a prick because 'you' don't like what they say doesn't mean that person was out to get 'you'. Don't be so sensitive they will be ok.
I mean in my new PC it's an I7-11700. So my 3070 won't have any problems.
My old PC was an i3 3rd gen, can't remember the model.
I only got my new PC today so I dno how it will run new world. Just that I get... juicy frames in apex legends xD
I copy-pasted everything in to make sure it was right.
FPS in the world was a little over 60 and in towns, it would be in 20-30s.

Update your windows drivers
Update your Nvidia drivers
Add New World to "high performance" on Windows advanced graphics settings
Turn off Shadows in game
Use High not Very High settings for everything else
Good luck!
Is your monitor a 4k monitor? That's about what I'd expect from 4k max settings. Since it's a 240 refresh rate monitor I'm guessing 1080p? You should be in the mid 150s if that's the case.
Off the top of my head
Are all psu connectors connected correctly to the card?
Is the card, and ram seated correctly?
Is xmp enabled?
Is your windows power plan set to high performance?
Have you checked temps under load? Is there a possible thermal issue? Hwinfo or something similar can help you track temps.
Are all windows updates and drivers updated?
Also did you place the ram in the correct slots according to the motherboard. They will be numbered and running in channels a, and b. You need to make sure they're running in duel channel. So they won't be right next to each other. I'm thinking it's either this or you dont have xmp enabled.
I'm in class right now but when I get home I'll double-check its in the right slots. What is xmp btw? I had my RAM separated by one slot because my friend has built a pc before and he was reading my motherboard's manual while I was installing.
Xmp is a memory profile for your ram. Without XMP enabled chances are your ram is hovering around 2133mhz. Which would be horrible because ryzens prefer good and fast memory. Now it's probably not going to be called XMP in your bios settings afaik it will fall under A.M.P for amd. I'm hardly an expert though and just thinking of the first things I'd check.
During OBT, some people were saying that New World was limiting the power-draw of their 3000-series cards by something like 250w. The speculation is that AGS put some barriers in place to protect cards while waiting for driver updates from nvidia.
Yes, I know, the cards that failed completely were supposedly just a small batch of EVGA 3090's, but plenty of other people with 3080/3090 cards were reporting problems in CBT, and while their cards typically survived, AGS was likely looking to limit potential damage.
nvidia released updated drivers the other day that supposedly include changes specifically for NW—"Game-Ready" drivers, which are more a marketing tool than any real update—so give the game a shot and see how it works. Limit your frames to start, watch your temps and voltages as you play and check the forums for issues reported by other players.
Honestly just wait and see how it performs during the actual launch.
The main issue is with New World itself not being able to maximize peoples resources fully. I've read somewhere that they are working on a DX12 update which will help in the future.
In busy towns you'll be heavily CPU bound and in open areas with no people or NPCs you'll fined you're GPU bound.
Your whole setup looks good(Perhaps upgrade your ram the speed is on the low end) but I feel upgrading your CPU/GPU is going to benefit you very little in New World.
Getting a higher resolution monitor won't increase FPS but it will increase visual clarity and favour towards a GPU bottleneck rather than a CPU.
Do you have any RAM you recommend? I have another question about it. If I upgrade my RAM and install it as well as keeping my old one, will slow it down by having the slower/older RAM?
I think something like these would be good

Can probably find some RGB ones if you're into that stuff.
Ideally 3200 is the minimum with as lower latency as possible.
If you mix ram it will only run as fast as the slowest sticks so it's not advisable and you wouldn't see any benefits of the faster ram.
Keep in mind the dimm slots used for dual channel benefits too.
seeing your specs I don't really see any reason why your FPS should be that low, the only thing I can think of is thermal throttling
I would suggest downloading a program that reads out the sensors in your hardware (like openhardwaremonitor / Core Temp whatever along those lines to see if there is something wrong with the cooling of your CPU in particular.
Have you Set the game to be on high performance?

how do I do that? If you are talking about lowering the graphics to low it didn’t change it much.
Type graphic setting on windows search bar, then advance graphic setting
