I have read the FAQ and it does not cover this case. The thing that keeps tripping me up is that everyone assumes you already know the basics, and the wiki is out of date.

    I have read the FAQ and it does not cover this case. The thing that keeps tripping me up is that everyone assumes you already know the basics, and the wiki is out of date.

    Turning one setting down fixed it, which raises more questions than it answers. Let me know if more detail would help.

    Had the exact same issue. worth testing on a second account to rule out something profile-specific.

    The usual fix here is the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.

    Not the answer you want, but give it a clean reinstall before assuming the hardware is at fault.

    Quick correction to the above: keep a note of what you changed, otherwise you cannot undo it cleanly later.

    I went through this last month. temperature is the usual culprit when performance degrades over a session.

    Report back once you have tried it.

    Adding to the above: the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

    Not the answer you want, but the safe move is the reversible one — you can always undo it if it makes things worse.

    Only partly related, but check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

    This comes up a lot, so: it depends heavily on your specific setup, so take any single number with a grain of salt.

    Others may have a cleaner method.

    Agreed on most of this, except do the cheap diagnostic first — it costs nothing and rules out half the causes.

    This is the bit people miss — if it only happens in one mode, that narrows it down considerably.

    Good luck, it is a common snag.

    Quick correction to the above: measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

    From experience, do not copy someone else’s config wholesale — start from defaults and adjust to your own setup.

    Depends on your setup, but broadly nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect.

    Quick correction to the above: verify the files before anything else; it catches more problems than people expect.

    Had the exact same issue. that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game.

    Worth a shot before anything drastic.

    Same boat here. measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.
