unstable fps

Does anyone know how to fix this. I capped it at 165 but like every 3-5 seconds it drops to 60fps then goes back up

mythea•12/26/23, 4:36 AM

oh okay that's fine for a laptop i9

mythea•12/26/23, 4:37 AM

u may want to clean install ur gpu drivers

RealifyOP•12/26/23, 4:37 AM

like uninstall and reinstall?

mythea•12/26/23, 4:37 AM

since u have nvidia ones, I recommend using DDU

RRealify like uninstall and reinstall?

mythea•12/26/23, 4:37 AM

it's not clean if u do it through device manager

RealifyOP•12/26/23, 4:39 AM

so that’ll delete all files and i gotta backup everything

RealifyOP•12/26/23, 4:39 AM

that’s the one u meant?

mythea•12/26/23, 4:40 AM

no, u don't need to backup everything

mythea•12/26/23, 4:40 AM

u only need two things, DDU and ur gpu driver installer
