Lagging, frame dropping and sound clipping after last updates?

[CMDR Correa]

Is anyone else experiencing those? Especially at stations and asteroid fields. My game (only Horizons) has been nigh unplayable since update 5 (for instance, at asteroids fields I could usually play for half and hour before the heavy frame dropping started, going from 60 FPS to 4), and after the last updates I can't even go bounty hunting anymore.

Check if your graphics settings have changed, I know mine did for some reason. Had to go through and tweak things down to where I need them for a decent framerate. Also the way you describe it, it kinda sounds like your video card might just be throttling back because its toasting, and with the way the game is always being added to it might be running harder then in the past which would exacerbate that situation. Just whiteboarding here, not enough info for any real conclusions. Good luck.
