Check if your PC isn't using iGPU as default.

it uses the proper GPU.

To get better performance, lower the graphic details. The RTX3050 is a lower end budget card that is already two generations behind and therefore unfit for medium detail levels of newer games.

Prior to me updating my graphics driver, I played on low and I would get around 100 fps, but now its locked to 2.0 MB VRAM usage, sometimes lower and now its never goes above 30 fps

I don't even know how to disable G-Sync.

I feel like I should note that this is on a laptop

NVidia app, in system tab. Or in Nvidia control panel.

It seems I don't have an option to turn on G-Sync for Nvidia.

However, in the AMD software, I have option to use free-sync.

I've added some more photos to see if that will help.

If you guys want anymore photos to understand better, I can provide them

This is why getting the most recent driver is a bad version. They are not long term tested anymore. Also, it seems like they only cater to the newest game that is out. So unless you want to only play the newest games, do not update drivers. It used to be the best thing to do, but not anymore. Even if the game tells you to update your driver, ignore it. I tend to use a 1 year old driver for games, and have had not many problems in games.

Before 2022, this was a good practice. Anymore, no it is not. Do not update to the newest driver if the current driver works fine. You could try a rollback to a previous driver version. Ask your graphic driver manufacturer or check their webpage on how to do it correctly.

At this point, you're probably right. I just tried resetting my entire PC. GPU is still being stubborn sticking to 30 fps. It might just be GG for me. I can't stress this enough for whoever comes across this.

DO NOT UPDATE YOUR DRIVER IF YOUR CURRENT ONE WORKS
