Wouldn't it be a lot easier if each of the platforms had its own specific thread featuring tweaks which have been found to work ??
I've a vague memory that the fix involved moving a slider somewhere (in NVidia's Control Panel maybe??) But I've spent nearly 2 hours this morning searching for it and I just can't find the thread any more...
It's definitely time we started putting all this stuff in a common place (exactly like Pyramix is doing...)

The 2 Nvidia tweaks I find essential are to move the OpenGL slider to High Performance (IIRC, Performance works too), and disable Sync-to-VBlank. This is for Linux but I also have used these in Win10 successfully too. I have no Macs.
A sticky for individual OS tweaks is a good idea but they should be curated as I've also seen a few useless suggestions.
I also have several tweaks for Linux/KDE that took me a long time to find but now I can use my favourite DE happily whereas it was a PITA without the tweaks.
Mixbus 32C, Debian Bookworm/KDE, EVE SC205 + ADAM Sub 8 monitors, Soundcraft Compact 4, M-Audio 2496, i5 6500, 16GB RAM, WD Blue SSD 1TB, 48" LG OLED, other stuff.

Well remembered - it was definitely something to do with moving a slider away from High Quality and towards High Performance (I'm blowed if I can find the actual thread though !!)
