I've tried multiple screen resolutions a thousand times and it had no impact on FPS.

Yes, ABSOLUTELY. See, that's my apprehension. If I shelled out 500/700$ for an Nvidia card and STILL had this problem then thats a lot of money wasted.

LOL. Its me. Its the SAME GUY with the SAME PROBLEM. Ok so I ran a GPU diagnostic tool and got this information. Is there an OpenGL diagnostic tool or a GUI for it I can attempt to troubleshoot for? I refuse to beleive I need to chuck this 600$ GPU because of this issue. This has to be a checkbox problem somewhere. Evereything I hear tells me I should not be having this problem. I'll accept even wiping my PC and reinstalling the operating system but if that doesnt fix it I dont know what to do. Also here is the SL info everyone has been asking for.

So does that mean the solution Nvidia? I don't normally listen to people who's immediate solution is "Oh you have X brand, you need Y brand ya noob!" cause it usually is just them falling for marketing but they may be right. I will run some GPU diagnostics programs this week and post them along with viewer information. I'm glad this post is still getting attention!

I thought that was the depth map that the SL engine creates to calculate Depth Of Field information from.

I thought that was the depth map that the SL engine creates to calculate Depth Of Field information from.

Second Life isnt even utilizing all available resources.

My depth of field issue refers to the fact that Second Life is unable to produce a depth map.

Refering to "Depth" as in the Depth Map generated by SL by which it calculates Depth Of Field. Black Dragon is somehow able to render its own Depth Of Field without this, but GShade is not able to ustilize Deapth Of field shaders as it pulls info from the SL Depth Map.

I dont understand this answer. While the info I copied from my Task Manager that I provided in my post says [GPU 0 AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT Driver version: 30.0.15002.1004] My AMD software says I am using Driver Version 22.3.1. But both have a driver date of 3/9/22 I've downloaded the drivers through the AMD app several times and installed them. I dont know what other drivers it could be using. How do I select that and tell my computer to change to use different drivers?

Yes, it is plugged into the GPU. I do not have this problem with other games. This is specifically a Second Life, and I suspect, Open GL issue.

Hi. Since first obtaining this computer I have suffered from extremely low FPS across the board on SL across all viewers. As you can see I have a really decent computer. Certainly decent enough to expect 30FPS. However the only time I am able to breach this level of FPS is in the sky, no other avatars, no background, basically no game. In any sim my FPS is about 5-7. the weird thing is that this is under ANY GRAPHICS SETTING. REPEAT. CHANGING GRAPHICS SETTINGS DO NOT CHANGE FPS. THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM IS NOT TO LOWER DRAW DISTANCE AND TURN OFF SHADOWS. I HAVE DONE THAT PLENTY. I HAVE ALSO TRIED CHANGING SCREEN RESOLUTION. I HAVE ALSO UNINSTALLED REINSTALLED SEVERAL TIMES. NO EFFECT! STILL 7 FPS! Besides. I am a Second Life Photographer and Cinematographer. (Photography & Video) Filming on anything other than Ultra is unacceptable. Trying to solve this problem off and on for a year I have basically heard something something SL uses your processor something something single core only something something 32bit architecture something something. Is this the solution? In addition depth rendering in Second Life does not work on ANY VIEWER. My gut feeling is something isnt utilizing my GPU correctly but I am not enough of a computer genius to go about figuring out how or what that is. I am willing to expend money to solve this problem, whether that involves buying new parts, or paying some kind of advanced tech support. I see other users copypaste this huge stack of information including sim info but I dont know how to do that. If you tell me how users are getting this information I will update this post.

For the past two days I have been trying to log into SL only to have it crash at "Downloading Clothing." My computer is a 2011 Toshiba, RAEDON graphics card, and SL has worked on this computer before. What is the problem?
