Interestingly, there was also a DLSS shimmer issue, which occurred due to auto exposure being disabled by default. Previously, players had to enable auto exposure manually, but that is not the case anymore. A recent patch solved the DLSS shimmering issue for good, but if you are still encountering this problem then you should disable DLSS.

Now that you know how to fix FPS drops due to DLSS, try Bethesda’s workaround. The good news is that the issue will eventually be fixed as a patch. However, there is no news about when this patch will be released.
