I recently purchased the anniversary edition and I had a blast playing it the first session, no lag, over 200 fps average on 1440p all high graphical settings, which is not surprising given my 1080ti, ryzen 9, 32gB of ram and the game being installed on a fast SSD.

I then sat down for my next session, but the game slogs at 30fps and below, I've verified game files through steam, tried allowing the game access to more cores on cpu, run it on dx 9, reinstalled the game, updated nvidia drivers, restarting pc and starting the game freshly from boot and nothing seems to work, then randomly after leaving the pc with the game running, I come back to it going at 200 fps+ again.

I just started the game again today, and the same issue persists, I checked task manager and the game is using 83ish % of my gpu, the rest of my pc is using the remaining 17%, what do I do?

Anyone else having this insanely frustrating issue, or better yet: HAD this issue and managed to resolve it?

Any and all help would be much appreciated.
