First of all, dig out a proper keyboard. That's right, it's 2020 and they still haven't hired anyone who knows what a mouse is apparently. Same problem as last year IIRC.
PC performance:
At 1920x1080 I could set everything to Ultra High on a 1080 Ti (i7-8700K) and got around 110fps in both sunny and rain. Very smooth.
On triple-screen 5760x1080 I got about 90-95 on High settings. Beware if you use the Borderless Gaming app. That reduced my fps by about 25-30!!
Controller settings:
Make sure you set max steering angle (or Rotation/Angle or Wheel Operating Range or whatever it's called in your wheel's drivers) to 360° in your wheel drivers. I assume you'll have to do this regardless of which wheel you own because there is no in-game setting for this.
Don't set Wheel Damper too high or your wheel might feel sluggish. This setting doesn't work at all like the "Dynamic damping" setting in ACC.
The official F1 2019 settings for my CSW 2.5 work fine for F1 2020 as well: https://forum.fanatec.com/discussio...net&utm_campaign=General+Links&a_aid=gtplanet
With the exception of ffb strength which I turned down to 65.
For proper FOV use this calculator and select Single Screen only, even if you are on triples. (The triple screen setting seems to mess up the calculation.) Then after setting screen ratio, screen size and distance to screen look at the value for "F1 2016/2017/+". Use that value as your FOV.
One last tip: when you turn vsync off to run the benchmark it will still be synced as long as you are in the menus. Don't worry as this is only a UI cap/vsync (which is a good thing IMO).
As soon as the benchmark loads the framerate will be unlocked.
