Shaders/DirectX12 huge FPS drop.
|
im already finished with the league so i don't feel like testing myself but is anyone affected running Windows 11 with the last update + a nvidia GPU?
apparently something broke with the last w11 update and some games got a really nasty performance loss so nvidia had to release a driver hotfix a couple of weeks ago (581.94) has anyone tested this? Last edited by sisco1985#1020 on Nov 26, 2025, 10:29:17 PM

siitting in the same boat but with Vulkan as renderer and without FPS Drops, if its loading and stoping shadering its playing fine.
" perma shadering aka grinding the gear.

Same happening to me since 3.27.0d Hotfix (2025.11.27). The game was fine before that.

Similar issue here with the shaders bar sitting at max during a map.
Game becomes unplayable when killing multiple packs at once. renderer: vulkan but swapping makes no difference. 9800x3d 64gb ati radeon 6950xt |
