The biggest performance killer driver is .... the physx driver!!!!Strangly this driver under windows 10 cripples performance in physx games such as lords of the fallen and others by causing hitching and bad performance but strangly enough the gpu is still doing the work for physx even tho the driver isnt there. i found this very odd and titles performance even better with zero hitching with this driver gone.
