    My budget build is performing like it lost a generation. an MMO stutters in places that used to be smooth, all after the NVIDIA driver update.

    Fatal error

    Fatal error
The game has crashed and will now close.

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
The GPU device instance has been suspended.

    i'd like to measure this properly instead of going on feel. What's 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 simlpe, repeatable method would be perfect. pls help 🙏

    lol same thing happened to me first rule out teh obvious: on laptops, check that the game actually uses teh dedicated GPU. Settings > System > Display > Graphics, add the games .exe, set it to High performance 😅 driver updates can reset per-app GPU preferences.

    Shader cache rebuilds explain a lot of "driver made it slower" posts, i'd play three or four sessions before rolling back. idk maybe im wrong lol
