I just updated to 466.11, performance in Stable seemed like a notable improvement and an FPS gain (Rift S) Hoped back to 2.7  and in any mission with more complicated clouds the performance dips for me. This was even with a lower PD in 2.7 than stable.

2.7 isn't good for me either I tried Hoggit last night and was a nightmare with awful stutters and was unplayable . Not sure if this is DCS multiplayer being bugged with 2.7 . 

Someone noted to roll back to older drivers around the  44. area Nvidia .

Going to test today .

Please let us know how you go. I'm stil on 448 and haven't moved - after seeing so many people report issues with later drivers I'm sticking with what I know works atm. I'm very interested to know if this solves the issue for you.

Will do . I was getting very poor performance in VR with 2.7 . So went to latest drivers .

In stable I had no issues fps were at 30fps as its locked with OTT 30Hz .

Hi, it seems that Nvidia has still poblems with dripped/lost frames in connection with many monitoring and rgb softwares.

That might be icue, AURA, nzxt software...

Ahead of starting DCS I stopp all kind of unneded software and that may help a bit.

 

Ingame, I set PD to 0.8, and MSAA to off.

Super Sampling in Steam VR is set to 100% at the start but i managed to go up to 120% without stutters.

I just rolled back to 457.09 Tonight, I started to have all sorts of issues with stuttering with in Oculus (not a DCS issue) after I turned my PC back on this evening.
