Hi

I'm one of many users which experience bad fps in the Company Of Heroes 2 menu. Have found a solution for the problem with a few Nvidia setting tweaks.

Here you go:

1: Go to your Nvidia Control Panel and select "Manage 3D settings"

2: Set vertical Sync to = "Off"

3: Set power management mode to = "Prefer maximum performance"

4: If you only have one monitor , set Multi-display to = "Single display"

5: Set all Antialiasing modes (FXAA, Gamma, Mode) to = "Off"

Before, my fps was 15-45 the most. After the tweaks, the fps goes from 70 to 110 in the menus.


Hope this helps some of you!

Omg you just fixed the greatest issue I've had with this game, maybe I can turn the background videos back on now too.


EDIT:I have a 780ti(for ivan)
EDIT 2: From testing, it doesn't look like adjusting the power option does much and I believe its simply just vertical sync

i have vysnc off anyway and the main menu isn't great but it's tolerable. i think the issue is all you peons who are bothered by tearing turning on vsync and then being capped at 24 fps or whatever the main menu runs at because of the movie. games are more responsive the more fps you get and i'm not bothered by tearing; it isn't a movie.

You don't have to mess around with Nvidia control panel and Geforce experience in the first place. There are a lot of guide available for a lot of games.

As a general rule of thumb, it's better to set almost everything to "Let the 3d application decide" or "off" unless you know what you're doing.

Thank for the post btw.

PS: In some older games, Nvidia Control panel can work as an undetectable cheat! Not sure about CoH2, but forcing "AA" and "AO" to "on" in control panel and disabling the said effects in the game act as a "wallhack" for smoke grenades in games like Battlefield and Call of Duty (older versions-can confirm in CoD4).

Nice find. It does appear to be related to V-sync, which is odd because it wasn't actually turned on anywhere. Nvidia just wasn't being explicitly told *not* to use it, so it apparently used it anyway.

Incidentally, the frames completely drop away again once I open a lobby. One step forward, two steps back :p

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific. :snfQuinn:.

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
