Hey Guys,
I've just installed the new version of GFE which included some updates to ShadowPlay.
I cant remember the exact version but ShadowPlay worked brilliantly with almost no overhead when it was first released but the driver itself wasn't great in BF4 for me so I had to run with the driver updates to make it stable.
I current have the latest driver installed (331.93) and the latest GFE version 1.8.0.0 however I simply cannot enable ShadowPlay at any settings at all without a huge overhead.
Here is a comparison of two identical 3DMark runs I have just made, Shadowplay ON on the left and ShadowPlay off on the right. Should the overhead for ShadowPlay be THAT big!?! My GPU usage goes from 98% on both cards with SP off down to 55-60% usage with it on.
I've had a look round for some possible configuration change to help eg turning off additional monitors but I cant find anything that helps and I'd really like to keep ShadowPlay turned on but still be able to maintain +144fps in game which I cannot do with the current overhead.
Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated
