Hey guys, I just got the game so I decided to replay Shadow of Mordor first. Everything was fine until one day it started freezing for a few seconds every time I performed a killing blow. After a quick search I found no fix and thought to myself "well ♥♥♥♥ it I'll just play Shadow of War instead".

I launched the game, got a steady 50-60 fps on ultra in the benchmark and then started a new game only to find out I have the same problem on the new game as well. I updated my GPU drivers, I ran a memory check, turned off vsync, tried adaptive vsync from nvidia control panel, my hard drive is fine and I get steady 60fps in every other aspect of the game. I hope the internet can do its magic. Video on ultra low settings but the problem still persisted: https://youtu.be/vm_MZZB85pM

Solution
Ok I found the fix. I had to turn off Dynamic Resolution in the in-game settings, then go to Nvidia control panel's 3D settings, find "Power Management Mode" and change it to "Adaptive."
