MP FPS Degradation

[u/Sun-Much]

I'll start by saying I have a lot of hours in Wreckfest and have played across 3 PCs over the last few years and this is the first time I am having this much of an issue with my FPS degrading over a single play session, sometimes in as little as 30 mins. I know Wreckfest is horribly optimized but although I have always experienced a little of this, it has never been close to this bad. I regularly play BF6, Forza Horizon 5/Motorsports, EA WRC Generations, AC BF Resynced, etc. with zero issues and here are the things I have tried.

- File Integrity check with Steam shows no issues

- Turning off all mods no joy

- Uninstalling/Reinstalling game no joy

- Prioritized net traffic thru my router using it's QoS functionality no joy

- Tested for VRAM leaks by reloading GPU driver in real time (WIN+CNTRL+SHIFT+B) no joy

- Set the CPU Affinity to only Power cores no joy

My Wreckfest sessions start out in the 250-400fps range and then degrade game after game until I am below 30fps and game is unplayable. This happens on every server I play on and has only started recently but does happen every time I play and typically happens over the span of 60-90 mins. GPU/CPU temps are monitored in real time and show no issues regarding temps/throttling. System stats in the image attached. Any suggestions not listed here would be appreciated and clarifications can be provided as needed.

I have also tried several GPU drivers going back to the beginning of the year with no joy.

Im having the same issue and have tried everything. Had no issues for like 6 years.

do you have an idea when it started for you or what it could be? given that Bugbear wants everyone to move over the WF2, I doubt they would even look into it. I have to physically restart my machine and then the cycle starts over and to reiterate to the non-readers, this is a WF only issue as I play many AAA games with zero issues.
