Issues
Severe performance drops with RTX Direct Lighting (RTXDI) in specific areas
| With RTX Direct Lighting (RTXDI) enabled, framerates can drop to unplayable levels in certain world "pockets" (reported e.g. on Akiva), even when RTXDI is set to Low.[11] |
|---|
|
Traversal stutter / streaming hitching
| Short but noticeable hitches (frame-time spikes) can occur while moving quickly through the open world (traversal stutter), typically when new assets stream in. This is often worse on slower storage and can be amplified by heavy ray tracing workloads. Some Snowdrop-engine titles have also been reported to use unbuffered I/O (bypassing the Windows file cache), which can further increase sensitivity to slow storage and contribute to pop-in/loading stalls.[12] |
