Stuck at 13fps no matter what settings and resolution...

You should get some software to really check your hardware.

CPU: Check temperature, is it throthling? Is ur Mhz at it highest, or does it stay low?
RAM: Do you have enough ram? u should have 6gb min to run windows + game atleast OK
GPU: Is the driver installed, do you have the cable to your screen connected in your GPU, not your mother board? How is the temperature? Is the MHZ of GPU ram and GPU cores ok?

There's so much to check

Might it be that your laptop also has an integrated chip and you need to go to the Nvidia Control Panel and make sure the game is using the Dedicated GTX 1050 rather than the integrated one that is on the CPU?

@carlostagno Just providing you possible troubleshooting tip. Without seeing your setup, it’s difficult to diagnose. Could be the game is stuck at 1/2 Vsync. Best to contact support.

@carlostagno Also, being a laptop gamer myself, I can tell you that there are other things that could be affecting performance - like power management settings both for the game and the global laptop settings. And, SoT is not as well optimized as other games. This is the first game in a long time where I can’t play at 1080p even on lowest settings on my gaming laptop. Some of that is due to age, but some of that is optimization.

@carlostagno
While playing your Mhz of your CPU should be at max. If not... either the CPU is getting to hot (throttling) or your power settings are not set up right. Try HIGH PERFORMANCE power setting.

Also on the latest builds of windows you can see the GPU usage in the TASK MANAGER
GPU 0 would be your integrated graphics GPU 1 your GTX1050. Do you see GPU 1 at 100% and GPU 0 at low% while ingame?
If not, it means your integrated GPU is used instead of your 1050. If you see GPU 1 (1050) at 100% it means it is fully stressed and it can't do more, but that wouldnt make sense if you play on lowest resolution.

I wouldn't mind trying to help out trough Teamviewer or something, but that would need some trust from your side, because I'll be in control of your PC (until you stop the Teamviewer session ofcourse :) )

As you can see here: someone playing on a laptop with same CPU but 1050TI
but still, very good performance

@carlostagno Just a stupid question here, but are you sure you haven't accidently made it so Sea of Thieves has a low priority in the Task Manager? Or maybe made it so it only uses 1 of your Cores instead of all of them?

You can check that under Details in the Manager.

Right click on Sea of Thieves after you have opened it, check it's priority, and then check the thing under the priority thingie(Don't know what it is called in English, I have the Danish Version of windows) and see if all of the cores are assigned to it.

Sounds like you might not know how your laptop works. SOME machines only use the built in card when pushing to am external monitor. And even though you set it to always use the 1050, that doesnt neccesarily actually get applied to every program properly. Ive seeb a few machines where you have to list the programs individually still that you want using the nvidia gpu. Also a 1050 isnt as good as you think it is....
You can play the game but 4k?...
Good luck figuring it out. Like others have said best bet is support as most of us would need to see it in person.
Had same problem on my own machine and others ive seen that have two seperate gpu chipa. It CAN take some extra tweaking to get it to work just how you want it

Plug in your powersupply If on a laptop otherwise u have a problem because i have 0 problems on My pc

@shuoink Who ever talked about external monitor? I said that i set Sea of Thieves individually to use only the gtx. And I never said that i can't play SoT only in 4k, but at every resolution and graphic settings it will stay at 13 fps.

Thanks for confirming my thoughts.
Its a PC issue not a sea of thieves issue. Good luck figuring it out!

@carlostagno said in Stuck at 13fps no matter what settings and resolution...:

@handsh0t probably you are right! I started the game, went to task manager and under gpu usage it says "gpu 0 at around 90%" and gpu 1 at 20-30%".... how can i solve this? in nvidia control panel under 3d setting I set sea of thieves to go with gtx1050 only.

Mhm... Good we now know the problem.

I don't own a laptop so try some websites discussing this issue:
