    Title: Frame rate goes from 60 -> 30 fps cap
    Reproduction Rate: Not sure, see it frequently
    Blocker? No
    Details: Sometimes the frame limiter just goes from 60 -> 30 fps and stays there. Goes back to 60 after a while, or restart. I posted this last release as well, but I really can't think of any other relevant information, sorry. It's an issue though and does happen.
    Steps to Reproduce: Not sure, i think alt-tabbing has an effect

    @coffeeislife, there was a bugged nvidia win10 driver a couple of months ago that would drop people back to using their onboard intel graphics sometimes. the fix was in version 397.55. is your driver at (or, hopefully, past) 397.55?

    @Alley Oop yeah, i'm on 397.93. Performance stays solid at 30fps where it would normally be 55-60. It's definitely not falling back to onboard, that would be like 5 fps if i'm lucky!

    Aye, thanks! Yeah, it's a weird issue and not a blocker, but very irritating.
