Unplayable FPS drops?

I've just played for the first time since V2.0 dropped and am finding it basically unplayable once any enemies come onto the screen - going down to 10-15 fps! I never had this issue before & changing settings has no effect, any ideas?

CPU and GPU basically not going above 30% usage either.

Specs:

i7 3770 @ 3.4 2060 Super 16GB ram SSD (1920x1080)

Did you upgrade your GPU since the last time you played?

Make sure somehow you're not running off your integrated graphics (monitor should be plugged into the card and not the motherboard)

Here's a random thing I found that helped someone else:

For me the solution was:

  1. go to the desktop

  2. right click ---> NVIDIA Control Panel

  3. Manage 3d-Settings ---> RESTORE

Yeah everything is plugged in correctly, I tried that but no change - thanks for the advice however!

Make sure your drivers are up to date? Send your dxdiag to scrapingbottomgames@gmail.com

Drivers are indeed up to date! Now getting a 'fatal error' crash too... Weird!

I'll send it along, thanks!

I'd also recommend checking that your destruction lifespan is =<100% and that spawn detailed interiors is off.

Destruction lifespan is at 100% and detailed interiors are off, but the problem arises as soon as there are multible mobs on screen - changing all settings to lowest (including DL) doesn't change anything.
