0.7 Ashes update performance, poor frame rates

I did some benchmarking on my computer last night, on the new 0.7 update and performance seems to have dropped somewhat in dx12 mode. I was able to hit an average of almost 28fps at standard settings, however now i'm around the 17fps mark.

 

I have a Core i54670, 16gb ram, and a GTX 950, not top of the range, but I'm curious is others have seen this drop in performance?

Make sure Temporal AA is off. That is very GPU heavy and sometimes when I changed the graphics settings to High it would turn it off and other times it would put it on medium. Running the benchmark on Extreme, which has Temporal AA off and on High with it on medium the results were almost the same. High with T AA off was 8+ fps faster on my 970 FTW.

Anyway, that particular setting is a bit buggy with it sometimes being on and sometimes being off. If Extreme and Crazy settings have it off by default I don't think High was meant to have it on. I haven't benched lower than High in a while but perhaps the same thing is happening at the standard setting so worth checking.

 

Edit: Standard does indeed seem to be have Temporal AA off by default.
