GPU suddenly not at 100% anymore, FPS kinda locked in Cockpit view

[xoxen]

Hi,

I´m actually seeing an issue I cannot explain to myself. From one day to another I experienced that my GPU isn´t fully loaded anymore. It always was at 100% and now is barely hitting 90%. It also seems that the FPS are limited in any way. When I´m in the cockpit I have 37 FPS now. This is not uncommon at the ground but in the air, especially over water in PG it climbed to appr. 50 FPS. This does not happen anymore. It´s glued to 37 FPS in the cockpit. Looking up into the sky raises it to appr. 50 FPS where it was appr. 70 FPS before.

I didn´t change anything I know about. I checked vsync and unchecked it again, no difference. I made a fresh installation of the NVidia driver. I deleted fxo and metashader2 folders. I switched on "maximum power preferred" in the driver. No change at all. Actually I´m at the end with my knowledge. Maybe someone has an advice for me. Thanks in advance.

 

The CPU shouldn´t be the bottleneck as I had a 100% before with no hardware change.

Edit 1: Switching off MSAA (2x) and SSAA (1,5x) and switching it back on at least made a change looking into the sky. The FPS in the pit looking up are back in the 70s. I remebered that this is at least worth a try checking and unchecking things. I read it somewhere here in the forums some time ago.

Thanks for the advice. Forgot to mention that I have a triple screen setup. ctrl + enter displays everything on one screen when I hit it. Attached are my settings.

Edit 2: It really seems that switching MSAA and SSAA from on to off and back did the trick. I now have 100% GPU load again. Good to know, didn´t expect this to work. Maybe this helps others.

Try renaming your saved game folder and see if it is cured with a new folder.
