Todd Howard asked on-air why Bethesda didn't optimise Starfield for PC: 'We did [...] you may need to upgrade your PC' - eviltoast

You heard him 4090 users, upgrade to a more powerful GPU.

  • With my experiences playing the game with an unsupported GPU and getting a solid 60 fps still as long as no NPCs are in the vicinity, I don’t think it’s the GPU side of things that needs optimization. It’s whatever uses the CPU.

      It’s the CPU. I had to throttle the process to be able to able. This game is a CPU ressource hog

          It could be optimized better for intel. They have had that issue in the past.

          Though… I limit my voltage to keep it from shooting up to 95c from their latest firmware updates (AMD cpus push themselves to the thermal limit intentionally), I kinda wonder if that is having an effect. It’s never been a problem before, however.
