FPS "drops" when I watch a video/stream

[Fruitdragon]

I have a dual monitor setup. When I run Warframe alone or with Spotify/in a discord call and such, my FPS is perfect. However, when I open Chrome and watch any sort of YouTube video or Twitch Stream on any quality setting, the game gets jittery. My frame rate doesn't move, either. Says it's running at 250+ fps but it looks like 40. It fixes when I minimize the video/stream or close the window. This only happens with Warframe. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

sounds like you're running out of RAM. Chrome is a notorious memory hog. can't say anything more specific without any actual specs. maybe try opening task manager to see what's going on. could be some sort of bottleneck.

Can't be. I have 16Gb and with Warframe up it only runs ~7. I have an AMD Radeon 7, GTX1070 graphics card, my PC isn't overheating, all levels are normal. Just seems odd how it only works with Warframe. Even if I turn my graphics down all the way it still happens.

Dont watch the video/stream then 😆

 

Tho, its probably Nvidia driver compiling shaders again, have stuff too, but rest of mission runs ok? 😆 Also, yes, if your web browser window is active, it will use resources, so when you minimize it, it doesn ;] Damn when i have youtube open it takes like 15% of my desktop i5 and 20% GTX 1060 😕

Are the Radon 7 and GTX 1070 in the same rig? can be driver related as AMD and Nvidia drivers naturally don't like co-existing.
