Drivers 101.5379 Beta NOT good for God of War

[Stephen]

Driver 101.5379 Beta is not good for God of War.

After installing it, I have experienced dropped frames and micro stutters mostly if busy scenes. This was not an issue before.

I reverted back to 5333 and all those issues went away.

I was using the same exact settings between both drivers.

Ultra Setting, FSR Quality Setting, Output Resolution 3840 x 2160

Everything else is default.

Hi, Stephen.

Your experience of dropped frames and micro stutters, especially in busy scenes, suggests that this driver version may not be fully optimized for your setup. Reverting to Driver 5333 and seeing an improvement confirms that the newer driver may have some compatibility issues with the game when running at high settings. You might want to check for any new driver updates that may have been released since, as they could contain fixes for the problems you've experienced.

Finally, knowing your graphics versions is a good start, but I could still use more information about your system configuration. Please run the Intel SSU report and share the results with me so I can verify details such as OS build, driver version, errors logged at the system level, etc.

Looking forward to your response. Have a nice day ahead!
