Some gamers using Nvidia graphics cards are complaining of drastic performance drops and display issues with the new version of Windows 11, which Microsoft has started rolling out.
Windows 11 has started rolling out its update 2022 (also known as 22H2) for Windows 11. But, despite extensive internal testing and as part of the Windows Insider program, operational issues may occur. This is the case with some users who use Nvidia graphics cards. They share it on the forums of Microsoft and Reddit. Thus, the Internet user ChoPT shares his problems with his 3080 Ti:
“I had serious performance issues, especially in games (this also completely broke Gsync). Drops to around 30 fps randomly from around 120 fps, in non-graphically intense tests. The image does not wait to tear. »
He says he saw the same issues when he tested the preview version for members of the Insider program.
Other users indicate on the forum the Microsoft slowdowns and stuttering effects in the display, with CPU usage dropping from 60% to just 5% when gaming.
Nvidia started to react on Reddit in the guise of Manuel Guzman, who takes care of customer relations (pseudo pidge2k):
“Can you share more details? What games? Do you have other apps running in the background? Do you have overlay software running in a game such as Game Bar or GeForce Experience? »
It also asks users who encounter difficulties to complete a form, so that the manufacturer has as much data as possible to understand the cause of the problem and solve it. We will therefore have to be patient while waiting for a driver update, assuming that Microsoft is not also to blame. The other solution is to revert to the previous version of the operating system, if possible.
Note that the deployment of the Windows 11 update is gradual, which is why many users have not yet seen it appear in Windows Update. Also, some complain regarding difficulties while downloading with sometimes the error 0x800f0806.
While attention is currently focused on Windows 11, Microsoft has not forgotten Windows 10. The publisher has just announced that the 22H2 update will be available in october. Remember that Windows 10 will continue to receive updates until October 14, 2025.
