Good news for Discord users! The latest update from NVIDIA addresses a performance issue that was affecting graphics card memory clocks on some Nvidia GPUs. It turns out, the recent Discord update had introduced a bug that caused memory clocks to slow down by up to 200MHz on some Nvidia models, including the RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 Ti. But don’t worry, NVIDIA is already on the case and is working on a fix.
For those of you with GeForce RTX 40-series cards, you’ll be happy to know that Discord has also started rolling out an update that will enable AV1 streaming. This update appears to have caused memory clock issues for some RTX 30-series cards, but users with RTX 40-series cards haven’t reported any slowdowns.
The company has tweeted that the patch will download automatically when you log into Windows, so there’s no need to worry about downloading anything manually.
The bug that affected the RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 Ti kept GPUs from reaching their maximum memory clocks, missing by around 200Mhz. As a result, there was a slight drop in performance while playing games, which wasn’t ideal considering Discord is designed to enhance your gaming experience by allowing you to chat with friends.
The solution to this problem is now available as an app profile update. Users don’t need to download a profile manager to export, edit and re-import profiles. Previously, they could just manually apply the update, but NVIDIA has made the process much simpler.
