To preface, I have looked at the mega thread and followed the generic advice. Made sure all relevant .net and redists are installed. Terraria is a fresh install from Steam, even deleted all files in the documents folder and played with Nvidia control panel settings.
Have also used tricks like, CPU affinity adjustments and system priority. Makes no difference at all.
This PC has run the game fine in the past. I've always been very smooth (almost 600 hours on steam) and always run with frame skip off. Never had to use it. I took about 2 months off the computer, came back and now it's running like it's in slow motion. Turning on frame skip does what it needs to, "somewhat" smooths it out visually. But I'm still getting extremely slow response on things like crafting menu, opening chests, attack and mining input response time. Things that do affect and make gameplay miserable.
In F10, I'm getting 30 (1-10), constantly.
System Specs, before anyone asks:
CPU: I-7 6800K (3.4ghz)
Mobo: x99 SLI Plus
Ram: 32 gigs Corsair vengeance
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1080 (EVGA variant) - I was using the same drivers I had before. No auto updates. New drivers now, no difference.
HDD: 1 TB Scandisk SSD
