HDR10 164 Posted August 9, 2020 I've noticed that this game streams a considerable amount of assets from disk compared to other games. I've confirmed this from disk read/write operations and speeds during gameplay. It's all well within the capabilities of a 7200rpm HDD, but it may be too much for a 5400rpm. That may be something to consider. What kind of storage device is the game installed on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HDR10 164 Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) Yeah, looks like there's a pretty substantial issue with your GPU. Does this happen with other games? Edited August 9, 2020 by HDR10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marioho 688 Posted August 9, 2020 It's still worth considering that different game modes taxes your hardware differently. There's a reason for split screen multiplayer being capped @30fps. Ordinary race modes are resource hungrier than TT as your PC needs to process AI behavior. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you monitored your hardware temperatures and resource usage while playing F1 2020? That could give an indication as to what is causing the bottleneck.

I had this happen to me in a different game once, and I ended up having 50 gigabytes of screenshots before I noticed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
