    uplay everlay on or off?

    Hi all.
    What happens if I deactivate overlay? I read many different forums ubisoft games, they say disable overlay to improve performance games, is it true? I have far cry 5 sometimes I get stutter when I pick up arrows or when I drive I feel stutter instead of when.
    ubisoft please advise me should I disable overlay "uplay" or activate? please......

    Have you been into the games graphic settings? Down the bottom is a scale how much vram you can use on your computer for your particular graphics card. Adjust the settings so that the scale is in the green not in the red. The game software knows your graphics specs.

    I have it set, water, low shadows and blur motion disabled, VRAM is at 2.58gb, others in medium high, I do not give importance to graphics or framerate, but the important thing that finishes well and fluid, but I have stuttering when you pick up the arrow or objects, leei many forums also has problems, I have far cry 3 and far cry primal works well and super fluid, but far cry 5 no, I do not know why they do UBISOFT?

    There are already quite a few posts about this issue and right now Ubisoft is trying to reproduce the issue but they haven't been able to do that yet...
    Right now you might wanna see this post and send them your MSINFO and dxdiag files: https://forums.ubi.com/showthread.ph...1#post13880389

    I suppose that if you disable overlay, you will got some FPS. I tested it and I found that overlay has impact on GPU.
    You should disable it, but then you can't use coop.
    Also I don't think Ubisoft is going to fix this. Moreover FC5 is dead for Ubisoft, so....

    hi ubisoft! I think I discovered for the cause of stuttering when I pick up arrow and autosave, just play and open task manager, minimize two program one for the game and another task manager to see what catches stutter and I realize is the fault of LAN internet , synchronized every moment when I pick up arrow and objects and autosave.
