UE4 to UE5

hey guys, I was wondering if the upcoming change to UE5 would affect performance on my mid-low end laptop much as it's running on integrated graphics and a pretty shitty cpu it currently gets around 80-100fps on a good day so I'm concerned if the move to UE5 is gonna cook my laptop. also, does anyone know when this change is gonna roll out?

It will definitely affect performance on any machine as UE5 is more demanding compared to UE4 but it wont fry your computer.

can we predict how bad the fps drop would be- would it still be possible to get around 80-100fps

Compare it to fortnite when it first switched to UE5

haven't played either šŸ˜­ didn't even know fortnite used UE5 well I have played it once I got like 8fps on minimum graphics would it be super bad

It will not happen in the upcoming months so don't worry about it for now

I'm worried about it in the long run because I'm currently considering an offer from a team šŸ˜­šŸ™ if I can no longer play valorant in (assumedly) a few months due to UE5 being too much for my laptop to handle then that's not ideal for both parties and getting a new laptop is unfortunately out of the question šŸ„²

Accepting an offer from a team with a bad laptop?
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago

Whats the cpu on the laptop?
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
currently hovering around immortal 1 / 2 i5-1235U iirc
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
I5?
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
yeps
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
So a 12th gen i5
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
yup
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
Gosh u made it sound like u were on a 4th gen i3
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
no clue what the GPU is tho naw it's not that bad I get around 80-100fps on a good day with some occasional fps stuttering
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
Prob just iris graphics
2
2ā€¢2d ago
that laptop is prob running on integrated
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
yep yeah it is I used to have one with an mx450 which was unironically worse than this one
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
From what i can see, u should be getting around 120 fps with that
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
lowkey I'd be fine with keeping my 80fps, that's why I was worried about UE5 cutting it even more
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
prob can be optimized further
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
hope so
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
Does it have 8 gigs of ram or 16?
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
any predictions for how ass the fps is gonna be? uh 8 iirc
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
Thats an issue
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
which is another reason why I was concerned- don't think I can upgrade it either
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
U should be able to Gimme the laptop model I recommend just getting another 8 gig stick
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
lemme check rq
jidat
jidatā€¢2d ago
Even if ue5 doesn't effect ur fps that much, that 8 gig is holding u back by so much U should be getting around 125 fps
2
2ā€¢2d ago
its holding him back if the cpu is under 100% util when playing
keiru
keiruā€¢2d ago
acer aspire lite 14 N23G2 guh

jidatā€¢2d ago
It shouldn't hit 100% with a 12th gen anyway Open task manager Performance Select memory Show ss

U alrdy have 16 gigs of ram In single channel for some reason And 4 slots on a laptop welp https://downloadmirror.intel.com/835141/gfx_win_101.6083_101.5736.exe Download and install this whenever u can Install any drivers it shows See if it improves the fps a bit
keiru
keiruā€¢17h ago
aight thanks šŸ™ does that mean I'm slightly less fucked singapore i installed everyt my fps actually got worse when i uncap it it fluctuates to like 30 now but if i leave it capped it still stays around 80-100fps also i did a system test and it keeps telling me i have an i3-6300
jidat
jidatā€¢17h ago
What system test?
keiru
keiruā€¢16h ago
uh computer benchmark it keeps detecting my cpu as an i3 also if you search up my laptop model it says it's an i3
keiru
keiruā€¢16h ago

HAHAHA nice I'm singaporean wait uh @jidat my val is lagging more after downloading the stuff u sent me-
jidat
jidatā€¢12h ago
U can just reset it by deleting the driver in device manager and updating it from device manager aswell

usually it would lag for like the first 2 games cause its caching shaders happens with any driver update
