FPS is so bad its unplayable

I made a new pc a week ago. It has 9950x3d, 9070 xt, 64 gb of 6000mhz ram, 12000mb/s nvme and I have played poe 2 with around 260 fps with FSR and 200fps without upscaling. Now I can't turn on FSR at all and I have 130fps without upscaling which drops to below 50 on a single spellcast, it's constantly stuttering and spell effects don't show :(

Same issue here, ryzen 5600 and 3070ti, before 0.2.0 I had 140+ fps with full settings, now it drops below 10 regularly. Vulkan seems to be better as it holds vsync cap 99% of time but it makes more crashes.
The game has become very stuttery after the patch on both pc and ps5, very sad.

4070ti super
9800x3d

I tried switching to vulcan which gave worse performance and turning off reflex did not resolve the issue either.

Same - Major FPS drops since trying to play poe2 again. It runs smooth for 5 or 6 seconds then fps drops to 5 for 5 or 6 seconds and then back.
3080TI, i9 13900k, 64gb ddr5

Also had no issues for several hundred hours at poe2 release. No changes to pc other than regular updates/drivers/etc.
Turning off Nvidia Reflex and or switching to Vulkan have resulted in clearing up the FPS issues. I turned of Nvidia Reflex and it fixed it for myself.
Same:
9800x3d
RTX 4070

Going to try switching to vulkan and turning off nvidia reflex like others suggested.
Turning on Vulkan cause the game to instantly crash for me and Nvidia reflex is off. But I guess it might work for Nvidia cards?
Same here
13900KF
RTX 4070 Ti
Maybe anecdotal but turning off Nvidia reflex fixed my fps fluctuation from 144-15. now running stable at 144 again so far...

+1, fixed some but not all issues with shit performance of this version

still getting spikes of random GPU overloads, while the 0.1 versio worked perfectly smooth
