GTX 1070 Missing Framerate options in Shadow of the Tomb Raider

[JamesTheGreat]

So I was just doing some reading this morning and saw that Nvidia enabled RTX features on some GTX cards, like my GTX1070. So I checked, and updated my driver to the latest version. (My old Nvidia driver was from January) and launched SOTTR.  A quick benchmark later and now all my frame rates are all goofed up, even with RTX disabled.

I've also checked, and other than 1080 and 4k resolutions showing the 60hz options, everything else only has the 30hz option.  

I'm using a 4k 240hz display, so I doubt that is my problem..

Final note, with resolution set at 4k 60hz in game, on Ultra w/o RTX I average 48fps using in game benchmark,.. 

Basically, I want to drop my resolution to "2k" and enable RTX with the hopes of getting better than the 30fps I'm being limited to. (And still run ultra settings)

 

4k-60hz w/ RTX on Ultra is crawling at 20fps, so that just won't work...

And 1080-60hz w/RTX gets me like 58, but it's 1080, so it still looks like poop...

 

Does Anyone know a work around or a way to force the game to add in the option for higher framerates on the lower resolutions?

 

Any thoughts??? 

 

And please!!! No negative replies!!!  

 

And NO, I don't wish to rollback drivers, because I'd like to give the RTX feature a whirl.. (But maybe will later)

Only 20 series cards and up support ray tracing, a even a titan xp won't run it. For ray tracing you need a 2060, 2070, 2080 or a 2080ti (and the super versions of those cards)

The option will be there with the new driver but since your doesn't have any RT Cores it will run under 30fps, if you need ray tracing you'll also need a 20 series card

Im sorry, I guess I was being rather confusing in my post.  Let's forget about the RTX for a moment.  Had anyone else seen the options to change from 25, 30, or 60hz, "disappear" in SOTTR, after updating to the newer drivers?

 

My point was I used to have a 60hz option in a lot of different resolutions, and now I only see it under 1080 & 4k, inside the Tomb Raider graphics menu.

I.e.: 1440 & 2k only have 30hz as an option for me now.  I'd have to go back and check to see if I ever took a previous screenshot of my benchmark scores, but I swear I remember having 60hz as an option for them, using the old drivers..

 

With that being said, I almost remember when the games 1st came out, that I had to do something inside the Nvidia control panel to enable them, and when I installed the new driver today, I clicked the "Remove all previous..." Box when doing the install.  

Is everyone limited to 30fps in 1440 & 2k like I am? Or do you have a 60hd option under them?

Thanks
