[2023] Is the Dx12 version unplayable for anyone else?

I've returned to the game after buying at release on steam and since I'v upgraded my PC I tried the DX12 version.

To me it's unplayable.

I got massive freezes. I figured it might be a shader compilation issue and after a few minutes there were indeed very few freezes left, but my game still had massive frame drops (15fps or less) even though my PC is rather ok (RTX3070ti, Ryzen 7 7700X + the game is on an Nvme SSD) and I tuned the settings so that it generally runs at 60+fps in 4k.

It doesn't bother me to play the DX11 version, but I was wondering if it was just me.
