Frame Drops While Connecting a Wheelbase

I am experiencing a problem that when I use my wheelbase my fps go down from +300fps to 95-100fps with stuttering. I first thought that it was an issue with my wheelbase but searching in this forum there are more people experiencing this issue with differents wheelbases. I am trying to compete in some leagues and as you could imagine have this frame drops and stuttering ruin my game experience and my lap time. Not just me, but all the people that might be having the same issue.

I have tried everything in my hands to resolve this.

  • Clean Drivers Reinstall
  • Reinstall F125/Verify Integrity
  • Reinstall Wheelbase Drivers
  • Reinstall Windows
  • Closed Wheelbase App
  • Changing usb ports for the wheelbase

The only thing that works is shutting down my wheelbase, but when i power it up again the fps go down to 100, even without force feedback at all

System:

  • AMD Ryzen 9 9900x
  • AMD Radeon RX9070XT
  • 32GB RAM DDR5 6000Mhz
  • 1TB Samsung 980Pro 

 Wheelbase:

  • Asetek Invicta Wheelbase
  • Asetek Invicta THORP I Pedals
  • Forte® Formula Button Box

I have attached a video where i start having the wheelbase connected, after i shut it down the gpu usage and fps goes up to what it should be. And after I start the wheelbase again and everything goes down, gpu usage. Fps

    Hello, Does someone see this? I am not the only one experimenting this issue since long time ago, and we are receiving not a single answer. It's not what I expect when I pay 70 Euros yearly for the game.

    This looks similar to issue I had with moza and F1 24, once FFB was "active" through wheel base fps started to drop. At some point moza updated windows driver for base and that fixed fps issue. So maybe contacting astek and reporting this problem. I had fps drops with moza in F1 and WRC game, but AC or ACC, AMS2 worked fine. Driver update and no problem with fps anymore.

    I only have this problem with F1, I tried changing asetek firmware versions and everything. Since there is other person with the same error and have a completely different setup, i don't think this have anything to do with asetek itself. And i have not received a single response since 2 months and the other report since 3...
