      @nine2 said in Nvidia driver performance problem:

      NVidia released a new driver (466.11) on April 14 which they claim fixes the supcom stuttering issue:

      However we are getting mixed reports from players about its effectiveness.

      I tried this and removed the nvidia fix mod. The issue was much improved but it still remained.

      I believe it's because I have two monitors. When I unplug my second monitor it works fine. If I plug it back in, it instantly has the fps stutter again. Also, using the nvidia fix mod or the console command instantly fixes it again.

      If anyone else with multiple monitors can do some testing that would be nice. The easiest way is with rapid scrolling in/out whilst moving the mouse side to side with a few air units on screen.

      I have reported my findings to nvidia.

          I saw some people in chat the other day saying it was. I haven't updated my drivers yet to the newest because of that so the 472.12 I am on are working just fine. I'm scared to update lol

            @lightbearer Yes 472.12 is working great, 496.13 has the bug again.
            I fear a lot of users are going to update and then have a hard time.

              I was actually just reading through all the unread posts since I haven't really been on the forums since I joined and noticed another post about the same thing from a few days ago. Nvidia fix mod is apparently the solution. I just stay on the old drivers since that's what the guy who showed me this game and trained me suggested but if the mod works I may give that a go....although like the saying says if it ain't broke, don't fix it lol

                We're going to add the 'Nvidia fix' to the base repository with the next patch 3726 on the 26th of November.

                  Glad I went searching through the FAQs. I spent a couple hours in sandbox tonight and could not figure out why I was lagging in effectively a single player game. My laptop is more or less top of the line (though I am on a wireless net). I opened up the aforementioned Nvidia service app from Task Manager, then clicked into it for the Services menu. I disabled 'Nvidia Display Container LS' in the Services menu, and now my game is smooth as butter.

                      Hi can you explain how to adjust the above please. I’m not seeing “nvidia display container LS” as a option

                            I will close and unpin this extremely outdated thread:

                            To sum it up for whoever finds this thread by any search term:

                            • The UI mod "Nvidia fix" was integrated into FAF
                            • The latest nvidia driver https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx has fixed the issue as well

                            If you encounter technical issues, make a new thread and post your log.
