Fully agree with you - medium settings are the way to go atm, lets hope this issue will be fixed after Tennocon.

Internal GPU is disabled via Bios on my end, so that can't be it. Running the internal GPU in parallel might produce some issues your test fixed, but if the internal GPU is disabled it sadly won't change anything.

Just tried it on my end and can confirm that le lower resolution helps with FPS as well while retaining SSAO High.

After downloading the Echoes of Duviri Update there is a noticable performance drop, even thoug i had changed no quality settings Depending on the mission it varies, but usually range around 50-80 fps where it was 100+ fps before. System: Intel Core i5 8600K 32GB RAM GeForce GTX 1080 WQHD Resolution Win 10 All settings maxed, using DX12 and 8x TAA All drivers up to date and verified and optimized the download cache. Temperatures of the system are okay (CPU 40° under load, GPU ~85°), other games run without issues. After testing around some settings it seems this is caused by the SSAO Quality Setting - turning it down from high returns to the Pre-Echoes performance both in orbiter and in missions. Orbiter, standing in the cockpit and looking down the ramp: SSAO High: ~45fps SSAO Medium: ~115fps SSAO Low: 120+fps Cambion Drift: Standing unter the archway leading out from the necralisk (next to the Necramechs): SSAO High: ~59 FPS SSAO Medium: ~95 FPS SSAO Low: ~105 fps
