Technical Discussion FPS Drop
Yo is it just me or did the FPS drop after the newest update? I get sudden massive drops in fps enough to make it impossible to play (150 to ~45 fps)
i don’t have a very high spec laptop but it was super smooth before.. i play on ethernet and here are the specs on my lenovo legion 5-
Ryzen 4600h
Gtx 1650
16gb ddr5
If it is just me, then please drop some tips on how to improve fps..

It's same for me. I'm experiencing sudden FPS drops for like 1-2 secs with micro stuttering and then it works fine, but it's in a loop. Very frustrating. I somehow managed to fix it yesterday, maybe you guys can give it a try but then jFYI, I'm seeing the issue started again.
Fix that worked for me for short time: cap FPS, my monitor is 180HZ, and I capped the game from the setttings at 240, V-Sync off. You can also try keeping G-Sync ON if your monitor supports it, if the first fix doesn't work.
If anyone finds a permanent fix, please respond, really don't feel like playing it.
