I've missed Dota for a while, hadn't played since the new monkey king update. Now that it supports 21:9, I wanted to jump back in but am experiencing really poor FPS—usually around 15-20—and the game starts laggy, settling at about 60 FPS but dropping to 30 sometimes. This shouldn't happen on my GTX 970 with an i7 4790K, yet MSI Afterburner shows GPU usage in the low 10s and CPU barely active. Any thoughts on what changed with the latest patch? I also saw a message suggesting disabling Xbox DVR, but that's been inactive for a while.

Hey there! Just got into my CS:GO scene, but my RX480 and 6600K are getting a bit of a blackout. 😅
