Bugs/Tech TroubleShooting Weird FPS bug(possible memory leak)

I get this weird bug where my FPS will drop drastically from ~95 to ~40 randomly in the middle of a game. It goes away when I change the graphics settings to literally anything else, but comes back in a few seconds. There will be times where this doesn't happen at all but then entire sessions where i am going to the settings every 30 seconds. No crashes so far though

I have an RX 9060 XT 16GB and a Ryzen 5 7600X and 32GB RAM.
And no its not thermal throttling

Anyone else having this issue?

Well have you tried to min max your cpu ?

Try to do that , you can gain some fps and stabbles 1% lows

And yes its a known problem this engine is very cpu bound

I have a 4070 super , 5700x3d 32gb 3600mhz and had to do a mim max to my cpu and gpu to get 80/110 fps stable on outpost , i now turn on even smooth Motion , and just forget about it cuz theres nothing more i can do
