I’ve been gaming for almost 3 decades now and i’ve seen this time and time again, where i will run a graphically intensive program and suddenly it’s just choppy as shit and running bad. Sure enough though no matter which brand of card i’m using or how new it is, if i go to the gpu program theres a driver update. So clearly this is too much to be a coincidence, so what’s happening here? Surely AMD and Nvidia aren’t both throttling your performance to get you to update right? That’s ridiculous. Can someone smarter than me explain what might be going on? Perhaps the games themselves are updated with new libraries for the cards and those need to stay in sync or something
Well I just updated and it went away like it ways does. If this was an issue its a very consistent issue spanning every windows PC I’ve ever used , so I don’t know what to tell you
Did you reboot as part of updating? If so, the reboot could have fixed it.
Also, how often do you check for updates when you’re not having problems? How long have the updates been out before you have performance issues and look for them?
