Hey Locus,
Just so you know, the "View Angle" I was referring to, I meant the "Mesh Angle", which is under the view options. This regards the viewport and how finely the system dices up the surfaces you see. (With a larger model, this can start to bog down the system)

Anyway, since it happens for you on an empty file, this is of no help for you....

Last note:

""""""""""""This didn't start becoming an issue until I updated both Windows and my Graphics driver in the middle of January."""""""""""""

Maybe try moving to the February update. I'm on "18362.657"

When I get my sons system built, i'll be on a 2080 ti, so may be able to play more then....
