I finally received my RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 and my new Acer Predator X27 monitor with the Battlefield freebie. After installing the card, Precision X1, and configuring my monitor, I decided to give the card and monitor a run for its money in BFV. I set the monitor at a Refresh of 120hz, turned on DX12 and HDR and maxed out the video configurations to see what it looked like and its performance. I run a dual monitor setup, and had only Precision X1 running on the second monitor.
 
The game was sitting around 50-65 FPS throughout several games. I then ran into a strange issue after loading into a conquest game, my FPS just bottomed out. It looked almost like network latency it was so bad, hovering around 5-8 FPS, and did not correct itself. The game was telling me I had 26ms network latency.  Looking over at the Precision X1 I noticed the under "Power Target" that the wattage had disappeared, and the % was reading 5-10%. Switching over to the iCX view I noticed that the thermal readings for the memory on the video card were just empty. 
 
I shutdown BFV, and closed Precision X1. Restarting Precision X1 I noticed that the display was only showing 2 of 3 fans, and was not displaying any values in any of the fields: no temperature, fan speed, power etc.
 
I powered the machine off and rebooted. When it came back up, Precision X1 had corrected itself: was displaying temperature and power use and fan speed etc. Loaded up BFV and played a couple more games without any issues. 
 
I'm trying to find out if this is an issue with my card, or was just a some weird issue with BFV and DX12 and/or related in game settings. I've read a couple posts on here regarding settings in BFV and that some display settings should just be left on "low" for performance improvements.  I've also been searching all night and this morning for information about specific issues regarding DX12, RT, and BFV. Some people have reported that the game is completely unplayable with DX12 turned on and describe the bottomed out FPS as I experienced. This confusing part is that it wasn't the case in the majority of matches I played and despite the 50-65 FPS, the game looked amazing and played pretty smooth, even in high terrain density maps and large scale battles (where the majority of each team was in close proximity.) 
 
I'm planning to do some additional benchmark tests this afternoon or this coming weekend but if anyone has any experience or suggestions to this FPS issue please let me know. Additionally, the Precision X1 losing its readings and requiring a reboot was strange. I'm hoping I can chalk that up to the program being in beta.
 
Some additional information:
 
- Precision X1 version 0.3.9 BETA is being used. I'm using the default settings and no OCing. I was planning to OC but after this I decided to wait.
- Latest nVidia graphics drivers are being used.
- System Specs:
  - Gigabyte x299 Aurorus Gaming 9
  - Intel i9-7900X
  - 32 GB DDR4 3600 RAM
  - Samsung 960 Pro NVMe M.2 SSD
  - EVGA SuperNova 1000 P2 PSU
 
Thanks!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I blame EA
My game won't even open with the new driver optimized for it. Same card btw.

Make sure you're using DX12 and not DX11. With DX11 you have to enable Future Frame rendering which adds input latency.  Withour FFR enabled while using DX11 GPU usage is horrible and FPS is whacky.  If you're experiencing this issue with DX12 I would use DDU to remove the previous drivers. While doing that unplug your ethernet cable or Windows will update to the latest driver they have which is incorrect. 
 
I had a similar issue before and found out that I had to unplug the ethernet cable. Even with updates disabled for hardware Windows was still updating GPU drivers on its own.
 
*TLDR and using DX12
Download DDU, unzip it, reboot in safe mode, unplug ethernet cable, use DDU, restart windows, install new driver.

Are you using the Settings give from NVIDIA?
Post your Battlefield V Benchmarks Here.

The game just crashes on launch for me. Seems like that driver/patch has botched a lot of people

I'm having the same SLI issues with my two 2080Ti ... sudden massive drops in FPS as demonstrated in this video here: '...//youtu.be/EsSOYg98ODI' (add HTTPS)   ... the problem is NOT just specific to Gsync monitors nor BF5, lots of A titles and not so A titles that support SLI are having much the same problem.
 
I've been in and out of using SLI over the years primarily because it was problematic and wasn't supported in many games/sim.  However, even the games/sims that claim support and actually have a nVidia profile in the drivers, they aren't work well with SLI.  It seems SSDD from nVidia despite their promises they would commit resources to SLI/NVLink for 2000 series onward, they apparently haven't done anything they promised.
 
So, it looks like I'm going back to single GPU usage and will put my extra 2080Ti into one of my other PCs.  Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
