    Hey @Shardmaster79

    Are you currently using any sort of adaptive sync on your monitor? I use G-Sync on my own monitor and sometimes this happens to me when I alt-tab fullscreen apps. I'm curious if that might be happening here as well.

    Gotcha. Would you mind sharing a DxDiag when you have the chance? For more details on how to pull one up check out the EA Help website. Once you have the text file please attach it to this thread. 

    Thanks!

    Thanks! I appreciate it. It doesn't look like there's anything out of the ordinary. There is one other thing you can try which might help. Open the NVIDIA Control Panel and go to Adjust Desktop Size and Position. Try setting the Scaling to No Scaling there and see if that helps at all.

  • No, sadly its still does it but turning it to dx12 fixes it but my frames drop drastically
