The application NVIDIA is an important tool for millions of gamers who want to optimize their games, keep drivers up to date, and take advantage of advanced features such as performance metrics, gameplay recording, and graphics adjustments. However, a recent controversy raised a warning: the software may be causing a significant loss of FPS (frames per second) in some games, which directly impacts the players’ experience.
FPS loss of up to 15% of performance
According to user reports, the NVIDIA application can reduce gaming performance by up to 15%, directly impacting games with different APIs on varied hardware configurations.
NVIDIA acknowledged the problem and said it is working on a definitive solution. In a statement to the Tom’s Hardware website, the company reported: “We are aware of a performance issue related to game filters and are actively investigating it.”
Meanwhile, the company has suggested a temporary solution that could help players mitigate the impact of this glitch.
How to resolve NVIDIA app performance issue?
NVIDIA’s recommended solution is to disable the feature ‘Game filters and photo mode’ your ‘NVIDIA overlay’ (overlay)options that are part of the application and that appear to be the source of the problem. These functions are available in the application settings. It may also be worth uninstalling the NVIDIA app completely until a definitive solution is confirmed.
