Help with frame drops in Assassins Creed Odyssey. The game occasionally shifts to Intel HD Graphics mode.
Hi, your Dell G515 5587 has an Intel Core i5-8300H processor, GTX 1060 Max-Q graphics, and a 256GB SSD. You noticed the game runs smoothly on the SSD but experiences sudden performance drops every minute. It switches from GTX to Intel HD Graphics when GTX usage falls below 10%, causing frame rates to plummet to around 1 or even 9 fps. After Intel HD usage increases, the frame rate returns to normal. You've adjusted graphics settings and even lowered resolution to 720p, but the issue persists. The problem seems linked to the GTX component, as mentioned in the Nvidia support notes. It appears a known issue was fixed in the latest updates, but you haven’t received that fix yet. Consider reaching out to the manufacturer’s support or checking for further patches. This situation does seem to be the game’s fault given your setup.
