This time, it is not MSI or Windows to blame, surprisingly lol.
Revert your Intel Arc GPU drivers to December 2025 version (8331 WHQL). Ideally after a clean DDU uninstall.
For some reason, the latest drivers absolutely tank my performance in ALL games. Spent the whole evening trying to find the culprit.
 
Yeah, I had an issue recently and noticed one game in particular was complaining about the swap file size (god of war I think). I had it set to default (automatic) but after changing it to min/max 24GB god of war stopped complaining and seemed to perform a little better. YMMV.
