Hey @joeaudacious :wave:

For what it’s worth, here is a little tidbit of info for you. Your mileage may vary but it could be worth trying. It’s easily reversible if you want.

Background: in desperation trying to get my new VR to be smooth I tried this. I no longer need Frame Generation (really, I’m not going back to flying on my monitor again haha) so that is something you may want to skip, but…

  1. Turn off HAGS (only needed for FG)
  2. Turn off Game Mode in Windows settings (so Game Bar is out of the equation for deciding about v-cache etc)
  3. Go into Bios and Enable the X3D CoreFlex for Gaming profile (default settings. No idea what all the stuff you can tweak here means but this makes Windows no longer in control of that core parking etc).

For me it’s way better than before. Much more consistent performance all round in VR. Not tried in 2D but I guess it would be similar improvement.
