I hope this is the right place to put this... but i was wondering.. how many other people had a huge performance hit upon patching vantage to the newest (1.1) version. As a specific, my CPU score dropped from like 50-60k to 32k... Mainly in the 2nd CPU test, i used to be at like 150-170 OPS but now it maxes at 31 and my computer hasnt changed at all....
 
Anyone else experiencing this type of thing?

    It's just that your Physx is disabled. With Physx on I get 210 OPs/s in CPU test 2, and with out Physx I get 35-37.
     
    Make sure that "Disable PPU" in options is not checked, and make sure Physx is enabled in Nvidia control panel, and you should be good to go.

    +1 to what Halo said, disabling physx will cause that huge drop

    Jeez. I feel super silly. I just re-ran it with that box unchecked and bam. 240 OPS on the 2nd CPU test... CPU back up to 66k. Thanks guys, i guess i thought since i didnt check any boxes (ever) that it was due to the patch. That'll be a solid "durr" moment from now on! Thanks! hahaha
