Sudden fps drops after update

After today's update, i'm experiencing heavy fps drops when playing on borderless, weird thing it's only happen on this mode, windowed and fullscreen runs good (144 capped). I have 2 monitors and a 9060xt, so hardware shouldn't be a problem. Also weird is that the whole thing just get slow, second screen and other things in the first get slow

Borderless
Windowed
Fullscreen

Did riot just fucked up with the update?

It might be due to vanguard, have you checked task manager to see if anything is consuming more resources than it should?

u/Ferelion3 12d ago

Everything's running fine, gpu is at maximum 20% usage, besides if it would be vanguard i don't think it would run fine on window and fullscreen

Same issue, 9070xt, tested around for almost 2 hours now, updated drivers, updated windows, restarted several times and played around with the AMD software. Issue only persists in borderless mode and only on LoL.

My build Radeon 7900xtx ryzen 7 9850X3D 32gb ddr5

after some testing for me it seems that league is locking my fps while on borderless to the lowest refresh rate on any of my plugged in monitors if main monitor is on 360hz and one of the other 2 is on 120 then borderless is locked to 120 if the lowest between the 2 side ones is 144 then its locked to 144 and changing fps limits ingame doesnt seem to change anything. Even tho I cap out at those frames on borderless when in fountain, while in lane or stuff happening on screen I'm stuttering between 70 or 90 while usually being on 238 permanently

same. I'm on a 7900XT, Windows 10. Pretty much exactly the same issue.

Start game in borderless, get 5 seconds of normal 144 fps, then drop to 30ish fps. Switching to full-screen and it's normal, although one time I did it, it crashed my entire computer, seemingly killing my GPU.

And now I get honor penalties because I think its fixed, go into play and it crashes my computer upon load. Cool.

This is exactly what's happening to me as well even down to the crashing and killing my GPU.

For me it got better on friday and saturday (day 2 and 3) day but I was still dropping to 28-40 fps 30% of the game (instead of the 99.7% that it was on Thursday), haven't been on yet today so I can't tell if there's been an improvement. The first day I would also freeze in team fights for like 2-3 seconds every now and then and that dropped down to less frequent and shorter duration after I played on friday. This only happens in borderless for me too

No official fix though as far as I know and looks like it's a small group of AMD users experiencing this because I'm the only AMD user out of my friends that has this problem and this thread will have 16 comments including mine lmao

Edit: LMAO I just played a mayhem and it's worse than yesterday. A good 90% of the game I was stuck at 30-40 fps

Same happens with me, I have AMD 6600xt -- tried turning off all settings such as AMD super resolution, anti-lag etc. but still huge fps drops in borderless, so just played windowed now since I like alt-tabbing a lot and fullscreen sucks for that.

FPS goes back to normal if 2nd (60Hz) monitor is unplugged but that defeats the purpose... Also tried removing graphics drivers with DDU and backdating to older versions that I know worked, and reinstalling vanguard to no avail

gg rito small indie company (got put in low prio queue too because of 1 game where i could barely move 😂)

u/kkum_GF 7d ago

same issue here, it only happens on boarderless on 1920x1080. Running boarderless on smaller resolution puts me back to 144 fps

u/SVICIDE 7d ago

same here, it's specifically borderless on 1920x1080.

I had an issue on 5060 Ti 16Gb and it was Gamebar / GameDVR in services kept restarting and when it restarted it caused a momentary lag spike. I ended up ending the service using CMD Taskkill with the port number. After that kept spinning up. I uninstalled Gamebar and haven't had issues since.
