Hi, I encountered an issue while playing Fortnite or another game where the frame rate dropped from over 200 FPS to around 60-50. It returned after restarting, but it still felt frustrating even after updating drivers.

Hmm.. can't say I've ever seen Fortnight aside from a few pictures. Is there any benefit to you running more than 60fps? I'm sure there's a way to set a limiter (vsync too) in the game options. It's possible that while you have your graphics card pushing out 200+ frames per second, you're causing it to heat up more and if it thermal throttles at all you'll notice a spike where your frames drop. If you set your fps to a static 60 you might get better results.

Consider reverting the roll update. If this has just begun, it's probably due to the driver. If it's a single game, it may be related to that specific game's updates.
