I was using FH5 on high settings with my Acer Nitro 5 (Core i7 11800H, 16GB RAM, RTX 3050 Ti). After about 20 minutes I noticed my frame rate dropped to 15-20fps. Once I reset Windows and reinstalled the NVIDIA drivers, everything worked fine—no lag or stutter. The GPU temperature is now between 50-55°C, which is normal for gaming laptops and not a bottleneck issue.
It could be related to insufficient VRAM, especially with only 4GB available. FH5 tends to consume a lot of memory. Consider using RivaTuner via MSI Afterburner to check your system details. You might find useful insights there. An updated VRAM monitor can help identify if the issue lies with your graphics card. Also, test the setup on a powered outlet to rule out power fluctuations. Edit: I didn’t examine the VRAM chart—your graphics card is likely the source of the problem.
If this happened unexpectedly, I'd check drivers and other updates first. Perhaps revert the GPU driver to a previous version.
