help!! my small form factor PC is performing like it lost a generation... an open-world RPG stutters in places that used to be smooth, all after teh NVIDIA driver update.
Id like to measure this properly instead of going on feel. Whats the right way to compare two drivers? I have both driver packages downloaded already. I just do not want to run a dozen random tests and end up with numbers I cannot interpret 😭 A simple, repeatable method would be perfect.
hmmmm quick q laptop or desktop? If laptop, is the game definately using teh dedicated GPU? ?
power plan had switched to Balanced 🔥 no idea when that happened. hope thats enough info 😅
hmmm check Power Options: a Windows update or driver installer can switch to Balanced or a battery saver profile... on laptops, also check the manufacturers performance mode app.
lol same thing happened to me after a driver update, games often rebuild their shader cache, which causes stutter for the first sessions. Give it a couple of runs, or clear teh driver shader cache manually in teh control panel / %LocalAppData% cache folder and let it rebuild once.
reading release notes like its a horror novel
hmmm any update on this?
