Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Nvidia says there's a fix for a recently discovered issue where Discord being open in the background limited the performance of some graphics cards. According to a tweet from the company, the patch will download automatically when you log into Windows, so you won't have to go through the trouble of manually downloading a graphics driver or other software update.
The issue, which affected systems with cards like the RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 Ti, was seemingly caused by a recent Discord update. It kept GPUs from reaching their maximum memory clocks, missing by around 200Mhz. That came with a slight performance penalty when playing games, which isn't exactly ideal given that Discord is made to help you talk to friends while gaming.
