Symptoms

After ~30 minutes(1.5 missions) the game begins having performance issues.
FPS drops from a locked 165 with 0 drops.
To 120 and every movement of the camera or mouse drops FPS to 80-65 fps area, the bigger problem is that the frame-time is super inconsistent and it looks like it reaches something fairly nasty despite a high enough FPS.
I haven't noticed for the GPU Core clock nor VRAM frequency to drop significantly while playing.
I play maxed out at 1080p 165hz vsync on, 100% render scale.
Around 40(1800mhz)-60%(2200mhz) core util.

Reproduction

  1. I play the a single level of the game and get to another mission. (I go through around 4 locations, ship->mission->ship->mission).
  2. In total around 30-45 minutes passes.
  3. The game begins having nasty performance issues and has to be restarted.
