Massive FPS Drops in POE2

Same Here, the bloodworms effect after rare mobs destroys my GPU.
spikes to 100% load and then frame drops

Stable 80fps in hideout, down to a very choppy 20fps in maps when it gets crowded. Minimum settings and downscaled resolution. I don't run a top-end PC, but still decent.

It's especially bad in the hourglass rooms in Trial of Sekhemas, to the point where it drops below 1fps and I have to exit the game. I literally can't finish the trial and had to do Trial of Chaos instead, painfully.

same... fps drops when kill some rare mobs.. (4k with out upsc) from 240fps to 80 fps.. Game dnt using pc performance ;)

for me, stable 70-80 drops to 25 on boss , dynamic culling and lowered settings dont help

Also having significant performance issues. Was running the game at 140-180+ fps in almost all areas up until last night. Now I get <60 in town and huge fps drops with large mobs (<20 while fighting queen of filth). Drivers all up to date, re-installed the game, lowered graphics settings, tried changing between Vulkan/DX12 - no improvements in performance.

Its so frustrating when u die because of high FPS drops, all the time when massive mob spawning or to many effects...so frustrating! :(

Pretty much the same as you guys, I've only had one hard freeze luckily (wasn't on load screen) in 145+ hours. Most parts of the campaign runs decently well except act 2 town 30-50 fps or lower it varies a lot there, also some parts of act 3 can be janky like canals, Most fps drops come from big packs in breach, delirium, ritual, fog from strong boxes and map rare mobs dying and playing duo (spark firewall- ball lightning lightning rod ) I can go from 80-90ish +fps to low 20's fps or lower, also happens to my friend on Xbox about the same fps drop might be a little worse for him sometimes, also happens when solo too with minions (arsonists SRS). High CPU usage spikes on loading zones. While playing I notice my CPU is at 50-60% and memory is about the same CPU does spike a lot though and temps don't seem to be any different than other games where I get better fps and performance. I figured id add to this hopefully they do more optimizations before launch fingers crossed.


This is another post about performance maybe drop by and add to it to help get GGG eyes on it and more people too

Bumping this post cause +1 on this problem

I have the same problems

I upgraded to an i-9900K because I though the processor bottleneck was the main issue.

But I still get drops to 10-40 FPS during high action moments in maps.

The low frames last the entire action make it hard to dodge, and annoying to play. I've given up on playing and spend my time trying to troubleshoot or playing other games.
