    smth's off. an open-world RPG feels sluggish since teh GeForce Graphics Driver update and the FPS counter agrees with me.

    Fatal error

    Fatal error
The game has crashed and will now close.

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
The GPU device instance has been suspended.

    that crash happened once too.. 😅 i'm on a gaming desktop, i've restarted, reinstalled the game, and turned off recording, before i go back to the old driver, is there something i should check first?? i would also like to understand how to meausre this properly, because right now i am mostly going on feel and an FPS counter in the corner of the screen. thx in advance!!

    reading release notes like its a horror novel

    lol same thing happened to me if measurement confirms a regression, roll back with DDU to teh previous driver, and report it to NVIDIA with your GPU, game and settings.

    yeahhh check Power Options: a Windows update or driver installer can switch to Balanced or a battery saver profile. On laptops, also check teh manufacturers performance mode app. good luck man!

    oof to measure properly, use a repeatable in-game benchmark or teh same route, log frame times with a tool like PresentMon or CapFrameX, and compare average and 1% lows on both drivers. One run each isnt enough. worked for me anyway 🤷

    @fenna_mutex wowww ok the game had dropped back to the integrated GPU. Set it to High perforamnce and an open-world RPG runs better than before. Wow.
