While I didn't do all that; I did update to the latest drivers, and that seems to have fixed the issue. I have only done one mission so far, but I it was with the loadout / mission that was consistently causing crashes / stutters before. This time, no problems.

Dang, still an issue. No idea what triggered it this time. I was doing a completely different mission, and a public match. Looks like I'm back to square one.

Hey! Try disabling Nvidia share in the settings: http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4228/~/how-to-disable-the-geforce-experience-share-in-game-overlay. This fixed my issue of crashing and i was able to play with PhysX on with no problems! Tell me if it worked! :)

[Nvidia Physx and Warframe = Bad fps over time?]

I am also expriencing this problem where warframe drops to low FPS after an extended period of time. I have also experienced freezing where the game is actually playing in the background but the video-output itself isn't. I have everything maxed out except for physx and i really want to turn it on as soon as possible, therefore please try to fix this problem for our sakes.
I used the advice [DE]Dmitri gave us but still no success.

My rig:

I7 6700k
Asus 1070 strix
16gb 2133hz ram

EDIT 1: I think the problem lies in 64bit mode, if i disable it then the game works fine with 140+ FPS. Problem is that PhysX doesn't work without 64bit. Also i have no v-sync on and my monitor has a 144hz refresh rate, i tested it on a 60hz monitor and still got the same results. I updated the drivers to check if it solved the problem but it didn't, i also reverted back to 375.70 but still got the same problem. I don't even need to go to a mission for it to drop to 30fps, it just happens overtime. Trying to lower the graphics didn't increase my framerate either so i think it's something bugging it down, maybe the PhysX particles don't dissappear correctly so the GPU still calculates and it weighs the performance down? Like stacking equations one after one before you can finish the first.

EDIT 2: Ok, so i have disabled Nvidia share and overwolf and it seems that the game is working fine with PhysX again, i've let it run for about 45min now and it's still over 300 fps inside the ship, i've done a couple of missions with minimal FPS loss. It seems that the problem is either Nvidia Share or Overwolf although i think it's Nvidia share that is the problem since almost everybody here has 10X0 generation of cards. Disable your Nvidia Share to see if that solves the problem for you!

Solution: I can now confirm that it is Nvidia Share that is causing this issue, in my pc atleast. I've tried running warframe with physx on whilst overwolf was active and it was working perfectly fine. In conclusion if you want to play with Physx without warframe going down to 30fps after a while you'll have to disable Nvidia share in the settings; http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4228/~/how-to-disable-the-geforce-experience-share-in-game-overlay
