Windows 10: Horrible PC Performance 21H1 19043.1055

Seems like my issues started after update KB5003637. My frame rates in Cold War dropped by more than half. In just the menu screens sometimes I drop to around 20fps. Maps take forever to load and half the time I lose connection now. If I do get in a game my FPS will drop below 30. I used to play on mostly medium settings w/ some highs and lows mixed in and could get 70+Fps. I have an i72600s (which is old but the game had run fine), an AMD RX570, 16GB of RAM, and 16GB of RAM. I have tried many things such as repairing the game install, fully uninstalling graphics drivers and reinstalling, emptying cache folders, SFC scan, etc etc....I have never had such a performance drop after an update so I am not sure what is going on, but it is very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Windows 10 21H1 for desktop will be build 19043, confirming once again that it will be another cumulative style release that sits on top of version 2004. It won't be a full blown OS release.
