Low FPS after updating windows, geforce and the game

Prior before updating the game, I was running 120 fps which is fine for me. However, after updating the Windows update, as well as the GeForce update, and then the game, I've been getting 50-70 fps. I have no clue what exactly is causing this. Last night it was fine, I was getting 120 fps but now its back to the 50-70 fps. Anyone else getting this issue or is it just me? i7-10700KF, RTX 3070, 32GB ram

  • What windows update did you install?

    If your using Windows 11 and installed the 22H2 update, this has major problems with Nvidia cards, it creates massive FPS drops and stuttering, it's basically unplayable. Nvidia and Microsoft have acknowledged the issue and Nvidia issued a fix...BUT the fix was applied to the GeForce experience app only, so if your like me and don't use the GeForce experience app, then will have to either wait for a fix to be applied just on the Geforce driver or revert back to the previous version of Windows 11. I tried the new Windows 11 update only a few days ago to see if the problem was fixed yet, and it's not, so I had to roll back the version. Yes I'm using the current Nvidia driver 522.25.

    If you're not using Windows 11 then ignore what I said above, or it could be something else.

    The nVidia 522.25 drivers actually fixed the Windows 11 22h2 update performance issues for me. Did you do a clean Windows 11 install?!

  • Hey, @Hibonbon can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with Battlefield 2042 and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

     

    Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

     

    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

  • I didnt clean install 22H2, I probably should have and will try again. Your right, I can see people online reporting this issue is now fixed. Cheers.
