PC refresh rate stuck at 30!!!

Just installed BV on my PC and cant change the default refresh rate above 30! I've changed it in Nvidia control panel and deleted the original config files. Still no joy. I have an i7 and RTX2080, so...

...and finally!

If I use borderless window, the game still sticks at 30Hz in the in-gmae menu, but actually runs at 60Hz. If I select fullscreen it drops back to 30Hz. WTF?

    Is Vsync off both in-game and in the Nvidia settings?

      Thanks guys. Finally got this sorted.

      I was unable to change the VSync in-game. It was stuck to ON. In NVidia control panel, the game setting was "application controlled". Once I turned this off, the game ran at full speed, but with terrible screen tears. Strangely, the game reported that it was still running locked to 30fps. I exited to game and GeForce experience could finally "read" the settings and optimised. Once restrarted, the game is set to runn at 60fps with VSync on. Result!!!

      Thanks again
