FPS DROPS ON FORTNITE PERFORMANCE MODE. IT IS UNPLAYABLE

A few months ago, I switched teams and got myself an AMD GPU (6700xt). I've been very happy with how it performs on every game, except Fortnite when using Performance Mode. It is literally unplayable.

After doing some research on this, I came to realize that this has been a known issue for years, and I am very disappointed that it has not been fixed or even addressed yet.

At first, I contacted Epic Games support regarding this, thinking it was an issue with the game. However, they told me that this is an AMD issue that has been going on for years. After doing my research, I confirmed their claims.

Now, I know that I'll get a more stable performance on DX12, but the input delay is very noticeable. I am someone who plays the game competitively and has a bit of earnings, so I can easily tell the difference between Performance Mode and DX12.

I know that some of you might say that my GPU is new, why should I use a stripped version of DX11, which is very old and this and that, but players who have the newest NVIDIA GPUs do not face the same issue, so why should we?

It is very disappointing that AMD has never done anything about this issue, even though it's been known for years and has been brought up here many times. Especially considering the fact that we're talking about Fortnite here, literally the most played game for years now.

I am attaching the youtube link now:

now i have an rtx 3070 and a 5800x3d but in january i had a 5700xt and i was getting like 100fps when dropping from the bus to reckless railways. in this months even if i'm on an nvidia gpu, i discovered some things which can probably improve fps:

-uninstall amd drivers.

-Install amd legacy dx11 drivers.
-disable dxnavi (only works for rx 6000 series or older if legacy drivers are installed).
-turn on shader cache.
-to improve gpu usage try tessellation on the amd software to ovverride application and set 64x or lower (this should boost fps in some games) and also try anisotropic filter which improves the quality on textures that appear to be far away and set this to 16x or lower. the amd software says that anisotropic filter only works in dx9 titles but

try it anyway, if it does nothing (search online how to turn on trilinear textures in fortnite, if it's possible then turn on anisotropic filter).

-disable ulps  (do this possibly with registry editor).
-with more power tool disable all the DS_ which make the gpu to downclock and set the minimum gpu frequency on the AMD software to 100mhz less than the max.

to do everthing perfectly look for a tutorial on yt on the first, second, third, fifth and sixth point.

let me know the result.

I don't think AMD or Epic games even care at this point :c.. Epic has no interest in AMD and AMD has no interest in bettering their cards :c
