Performance (for me) is way better on Xbox gamepass than STEAM. Why?
Anyone know why this would be the case?

On xbox game pass I am getting 70-90 fps almost everywhere at 4k on ultra preset.

On STEAM I was getting 45fps with the exact same settings.

Yes im Todd, my development team doesn't even understand why so I am asking the public.

Jokes aside, I am actually serious here. I am curious why performance is better on xbox game pass.

You don;t own it on Steam tho

dont have a comparison point but can say, it's running fine for me too on gamepass. 4k, defaulted to ultra. 60fps is this tv's refresh rate but been steady except for few places in the city where went down to 50fps or so.
Weird tho, maybe from something like the steam overlay?

I refunded it because of crap performance and then tried it on a family members Xbox game pass.

Do you need my life story to believe me or do you think I am making this up. I am legitimately curious about the performance differences.

Could be, maybe because I had steam overlay AND Nvidia overlay on? I should have tried to both overlays off, but I forgot.

At the moment I have nvidia overlay on.

Because Steam is buggy as hell atm and I am pretty sure it has a memory leak somewhere. That might cause it.
