when i reload a save or start my game up, the fps stays around 80-60, which is normal. after around 5 or less minutes of walking around or doing really anything, it just decreases to around 30-20 fps for no reason.

Hi! Could you please let me know what's your current game version, video settings, and PC specifications? A video of the incident, especially with an FPS counter, would be very helpful too. Thank you!

unfortunately i'm unable to record it as it's completely random, i've been noticing it happening after one minute or after 10, or not at all. i think one cause may be the fire extinguisher, as when i use it for the first time, i get a lag spike and then sometime after that, it usually gets laggier.

i have max graphics on everything besides DLSS, which i have set to ultra performance.
i'll check the actual game version later, but it's the patch 5 hotfix.
graphics card: GeForce RTX 3050, 16 gigs of ram

if anything else is needed, let me know
