Getting 20fps with vulkan and dx12

Hey,

Ever since the recent 6GB Patch, my fps have dropped from ~120-140fps on dx12/vulkan down to ~20fps. However, when I swap to dx11 it shoots back up to ~144fps. This however has the downside of being super choppy whenever I open a strongbox or have any kind of clutter on the screen.

My PC specs are:
CPU Intel i9 9900KS
GPU: Gigabyte RTX 2080 Super
RAM: 32GB DDR4 (1600 MHz)
SSD: 500GB M.2 SSD

Game settings are as follows (when having the 20fps):
Resolution: 1080x1920 (no change to FPS even on low res)
Renderer: DX12 or Vulkan - Both produce same 20fps issue.
VSync: Off (Does not change FPS with any choice)
Triple buffering: Enabled (does not change with any choice)
AA Quality: Off (does not change with any choice)
Lightning: Shadows
Shadow Qual: Low
Sun Shadow Qual: Low
Number of Lights: Low
Depth of Field: Disabled
Water Detail: Low
Texture Qual: Medium (does not change with any choice)
Texture Filtering: Trilinear Filtering
Dynamic Culling: Enabled (Does not change fps with any choice)
Dynamic Res: Enabled
Multithreading: Have tried on/off with no change

If any further info is required, please let me know, I have tried removing the shader cache and letting the system rebuild it with no change. I have tried fully uninstalling and reinstalling the steam version of POE. I have also tried removing all MTX effects and still no change in FPS unfortunately.

EDIT:
Even after the patch, fps is still stuck at ~22FPS on Vulkan/DX12...

EDIT2:
Also tried standalone client with no change, tried disabling gsync completely also with no changes.

I have the exact same problem how did you solve it?
Same thing. DX11 I get 144fps. Vulkan and DX12 I'm stuck at 40 or so.
same issue, dx11 normal fps but vulkan and dx12 lock ~4x fps
Update!!

I am back to normal fps, what I did was reboot my PC fully, open POE straight away before ANYTHING opens, then open up my internet browser/anything else after and it seems fine, such a strange issue....

EDIT: Well it was working for a day, seems to be back to good ol' 20fps again -,-

UPDATE:

Seems like GGG have fixed whatever issue was occurring previously. Stable once again on DX12 :)

Update....
Back to 22FPS we go, why is it so intermittent...
