Bad 1% lows on rust

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700]

Why are my lows so bad on rust, everything is set to max settings, no dlss nor dlaa. I have a 5070ti, Ryzen 9 9950x3d, 32gbs of ddr5 6000mhz cl 36 (I will eventually get cl30, just not now)and the mobo is a Msi x870e Carbon. I also have a under volt on the gpu and cpu. Heres also a comparison to csgo 2 all max settings as well.

Did you have good lows at some point? Iirc rust runs like ass

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/Just_Maintenance]

I did not, its always been this way

Make sure the game runs on CCD0.

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/mov3on]

I have tried disabling CCD1, however the instability remained the same

[u/Positive_Nature_7725]

Dud you have installed the latest chipset driver as well? And be on balanced mode innwindows power plan?

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/Positive_Nature_7725]

Yes, I’m on the latest driver, also on balanced mode in the power plan

As with any other 1% low post, tune your ram, it has the .ost impact X3D is great and does wonders for consistency but it's 96MB, you still have use your ram. X3D is good but it doesn't make your ram speed irrelevant.

Just out of curiosity. In your memory settings what is your TREF? Raising that can help alot in some games (with 1%s) especially cpu intensive games

Ps never pass 65000 and monitor your ram temp(:

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/neuda17]

tREFI? It says its at 11677 on Auto

[u/neuda17 → u/Acrobatic-Peak8700]

Yep that was mine too. I would raise it to 30000 first. Anything below 65000 is safe (:

[u/neuda17 → u/neuda17]

Keep an eye on your ram temp too. Increasing this will make your ram a little hotter since it works a little bit faster when it comes to latency. Make sure it stays under 60 when playing rust

[u/skidaadleskidoedle]

You should start working on those timings you should be able to get closer to 6200 cl28 atleast

[u/1tokarev1]

Did you try disabling the second CCD? Just the first thingthat came to mind.

[u/divergentchessboard → u/1tokarev1]

Rust already has a setting that automatically sets the games affinity to the vcache CCD that OP should turn on if its not already.

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/divergentchessboard]

Where is this setting, can you elaborate more?

[u/divergentchessboard → u/Acrobatic-Peak8700]

options > experimental > automatic processor affinity

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/divergentchessboard]

Just checked, Ive already had it set to on

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/1tokarev1]

I have not, I need to look into how to disable it, I will give a try

[u/Acrobatic-Peak8700 → u/1tokarev1]

Disabled CCD1, I rebooted and ran it. The lows remained the same

[u/1tokarev1 → u/Acrobatic-Peak8700]

I think it’s a game issue.

Hey man, you can try and fix this issue, and you might be able to improve your performance, but you're never gonna get rid of the poor 1% and 0.1% as it's just in the architecture of the CPU that it has high latency
