[2023] Serious FPS performance problems after 64bit upgrade — on a high end machine

I've been experiencing some awful FPS dips to as low as 20-50 fps sustained (especially during group content and whenever I open menus such as inventory or character sheet.)
 

Hi there, 

A couple notes from the team. The frame rate limiter defaults to 60, so you can try turning it up to the max of 200. Additionally, if you have multiple GPUs, we recommend checking to make sure you have it set to using the installed GPU as opposed to the power saving one. 

If you are having performance issues that are limited by rendering, the FPS will display green. If it's limited by the CPU, the FPS will display red. We would like to know what color you are seeing. Some things to test if it is a graphics issue:

• Turn off AntiAliasing
• Reduce shadow settings
• Update your drivers

Other info we would like to know: 

• Are you on a laptop or a desktop? 
• Please submit a DXDiag and send to [email protected] 
  • Be sure to include your account name and use the email address associated with your account name 

Thanks!

Heh.
I think the conversation has veered a little off the rails.

Fact is, I'm still experiencing really shockingly poor FPS performance out of this title, and I'm just about resolved to end my subscription and walk away for the time being.
My machine is dramatically over the recommended specs, and it's really frustrating that despite a week of trying out dozens of troubleshooting strategies, nothing has improved the situation.

I'll log in again with the next major update to see if things have improved any, but this does leave a sour taste in my mouth.

Hi there, can you confirm that you tried the steps listed in my previous post? And if you've submitted a DxDiag to Support? Thanks!
