Hi Guys,
I recently jumped back into the Witcher 3 there after having not played since January, and I noticed that the frame rate was fluctuating quite a bit from when beforehand, I had no issues at all.
Prior to my last playthrough I was getting frames on average of 90+ with Vsync off, and I generally prefer to play with Vsync on so that the gameplay is smoother, so it was capped at 75 FPS - this is everything on Ultra settings too. Now, the frame rate is dipping below 75 and going into the low 60s in more populated areas, and I am also experiencing stuttering quite a bit which is a bit worrying.
My current set up is the RYZEN 7 3700X paired with a RX 5600XT and I purchased both back in December after viewing benchmarks which seemed very satisficing and had no issues myself upon setting up my PC until now.
I thought it might've been a driver issue, so I rolled my drivers back to the update that I had when I last played, but unfortunately that didn't change anything either. I also play with a few mods installed and tried removing them and running the game and still have the same problem.
I'm not really sure what else to do except maybe reinstalling the game - I have the Steam version - or factory resetting my GPU and reupdating the drivers as I download them using the AMD software application and perhaps downloading over previous drivers is causing the issue.
I just thought I'd ask and see if anyone else has experienced this recently. I understand that the frame dips aren't massive, but I was my GPU is more than capable of getting frames better than what I'm getting now and it's concerning me that there may be an issue with the hardware itself!
If anyone has any advice or suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
