I'm having a tough time getting Battlefield 6 to run smoothly on my Alienware R10, which packs an AMD 5600X and an RTX 3080. I tried tweaking my settings, using user configs, and even overclocking, but I'm still stuck with frame rates between 30 and 56 FPS, even on low settings at 1080p and 1440p. My monitor is a 144Hz TUF gaming display, so I'm looking for at least a stable 60 FPS. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple times, and I'm considering switching to Xbox Series X, where it seems to run at a steady 90 FPS in 1440p. Any advice would be super appreciated!

Sounds like there's definitely something wrong with your setup. You should start a separate thread to dig into potential causes for the performance drop. It's puzzling since your hardware should handle the game much better.
Your setup shouldn't struggle with BF6. I have a 7600X with an RTX 2070, and I can run the game at 1440p on medium settings, getting 75-90 FPS without issues.
It looks like something's off in your setup. Make sure you've enabled XMP, PCIe Resizable BAR, and Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) if you've got those options. Also, ensure your CPU cooler's working well and that your PC is clean inside to avoid thermal throttling.
Have you checked your thermals? Sometimes overheating can throttle performance and lower frame rates significantly. Make sure your cooling is up to par!
Are you seeing these issues just with Battlefield 6? How do other games perform on your system? A quick search mentions some optimization issues with BF6 that might not be related to your hardware. It could be worth checking those out for possible fixes or workarounds!
I've tried everything since the beta, and it ran fine then. I even toggled DLSS on and off, but no luck.
