FPS Destroyed After Latest Nvidia Update

I usually get around 100 FPS at 1440p, Now I get about 10 and much less sometimes. What happened?

3080 TI

Roll back the update?

check the settings some times it sets settings to weird things. Remember there are three places Nvidia, Windows, and WOW any of these could be it. At one time the recommend settings from Nvidia gave me bout 10 fps too.

Nvidia’s Geforce Experience or the new app(does the same stuff) has a bad habit of randomly setting your foreground and background FPS limits to the wrong values. For some, it ends up setting the foreground to what the background should be, which is usually 8.

Check your WoW settings and you’ll likely see this. Go into the Nvidia app and disable it from automatically adjusting WoW, as it will keep trying to do this until you stop it or do some kind of manual override on it the profile.

This is happening to me too. How do I adjust the Nvidia settings?

So what was happening to me is I was using a weakaura with a texture that was not supported by the new NVidia drivers. It was giving me a BSOD. Check weakauras. It was a DH metamorphosis animation texture. Took me forever to figure it out. Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

i’m lucky if i can log in without the game crashing since last wow update.

things have been a train wreck for like the last 2 months. most of the time 1/2 the FPS i used to have.

apparently a $700 intel CPU makes games crash because intel has incompetent engineers
and apparently a $2,300 nvidia video card has incompetent driver & app developers behind it
apparently microsoft employs incompetent engineers who can’t stop breaking intel and nvidia running windows with updates

ENJOY!!!

a texture not supported? lol are you high bro?

Possibly a texture that was changed in the game client and the WA didn’t have the update for the new one or new location.
