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).

There's one thing that I unintentionally left out. One of the top comments on the video mentions that the launcher can cause huge performance issues. I tested this last night. 1440p with DLSS Performance, generally High settings:

If I leave the launcher running - 35-60 FPS

If I kill the launcher (or disable it with Steam launch option) - 70-100 FPS

The DX11 and Vulkan seem about the same.

Huh, I'm trying to figure out why you are getting such low frames. In also running a 3080/5800x/32gb ram on a 1440p ultra wide and my average fps is in the upper 80s, maybe during large fights it might go down to like 60, but the only time I've seen it go lower than that has been a few obvious glitches (turned an enemy into a sheep that was constantly trying to open a vault but it didn't have the key to it on its sheep body, was pretty hilarious.)
