Game performance drops heavily sometimes after using menu

[Squished]

Randomly, after pressing select then using the map or any of menu sections, after coming back out frame rate will drop hard with the GPU maxed out. The only fix is to go back into the menu and toggle a graphics option (such as shadows) and come back out. Performance is then restored to normal.

This happens a lot, using the menu a few times is enough to trigger it.

I can't see this in the known issues list, but I'm sure I've seen it already mentioned by others?

frame generation is disabled in menus

I'm not using framegen, just DLSS quality.

This isn't about the performance *in the menu*, it's about losing performance after using the menu and returning to the game world. Other things that can trigger it are fast travel and loading into the game.

This still happen if you put the "uspcaler" on Automatic?

It does. Automatic just uses DLSS anyway on my PC.

I've also tried other upscalers, FSR, TAA. And the bug happens with those too.

Same here : even worse i went from 116 fps ( locked 116 on my 120Hz Gsync ) to 89/ 93 fps
No mather if i change DLSS with or without FG ...
Switching back and forth into the menu changing DLSS it sometimes comes back to 116 and stays there ...as if nothing happened. Quiting the game and the problem is back ..

disable steam input controller for the game. then you will have DLSS available in the framegen section and game will be smooth for you.
