I am currently on my 4th game of dota in a row when setting performance level
manual to 7. working so far. Everyone should test this now so we have more
reliable data. As we all now the issue can be gone for several hours so my
experience means nothing yet. 
Would be amazing if we can pin down the issue to the  performance level of the
cards.
