BALDURSGATE 3 Optimized settings guide 🆕✅ The BEST settings for Balders Gate are here for ALL PCs gaining upto 70% more fps using optimised settings which ...

I'm not affiliated with this YouTuber, but I thought this might be useful to someone else. I have a RTX 3080/Ryzen 5800x/32 GB machine and was hovering around 30-40 FPS even after turning a lot of settings down. I think I just haven't kept up with the best combination of settings. This video got me up to an average of 70-80 FPS (except for in denser areas, where it can drop to 45).

Your specs are slightly better than mine and I'm running at a stable 144fps at 1440p with everything maxed out. I guess you're running at 4k? Even so I would expect your framerate to be higher than that

yeah, i'm at 1440/144 on a 3070ti/5800x.

Thanks to you both for the info on your specs/frame rates. The first numbers I quoted were at 1440p. I believe the guide recommended starting at 4k, so I think the 70-80 FPS is at 4k. I'll have to continue to tweak.

Side note - what's the general consensus on DDU (Display Drive Uninstaller). Do you all use that each time there is a new NVIDIA driver? I'm just wondering if I have a more base level issue.

From my understanding from various people online and my own experiences as someone who uses an Intel Card in my main rig (used to dealing with wonky drivers although it's a lot better these days) Only use DDU if the situation calls for it. Like swapping GPUs. Otherwise just doing a custom install and making sure you check the box for a 'clean' install is good enough. Similar adage to "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Unless you're getting a lot of crashes or things just seem off performance/visual wise. DDU is probably overkill in most situations.

I never use DDU, just install over the prior driver. I run 3070, i7 10700k but only at 1080 resolution. In high/ultra settings I tend to sit at 120+ fps. Can’t hurt to try ddu if there are issues

I only use DDU if there is an issue.

You don't need to run DDU every time there's an update. You only really need it if you're having driver issues that can't be fixed any other way or if you're switching GPU to a different brand. And if you decide to run it make sure you do it in safe mode so it can actually remove everything.

DDU is a great tool. It's just wholly unnesseccary when you're moving from a working driver install, to an updated driver install for the same card.

Use DDU when you're buying a new card, or facing problems.

Same you have something going on man, I have the same specs as you (3080, 5800x) but I'm getting stable 144fps at 1440p 80-90% gpu usage.
