Frame limit dropping fps

[thebombsauce]

I am playing metroid prime trilogy and when testing with frame limit off I always stay above 70 fps but when using the following (v-sync, auto, 60 fps without limit by fps, 60 fps with limit by fps) I will drop frames below 40 at times in game, particularly when jumping into and out of water. What can I do?

Try without V-Sync.

I have, all of those options have been tried seperately.

Well if you get constant full-speed you can let Framelimit set to "Off"

Then it runs far too fast, like at 120 fps-70 I need it at 60
