You'll still get lag, even if you change displayfusion.exe to use the High Performance option. This is depsite the NV control panel doing a MUCH better job of switching.ĭouble Edged Sword: If you run your laptop in high performance mode with discrete GPU turned on all the time, this fix won't work. This whole "Graphics Settings" hijack occurred at the end of 1803 where windows assumed controls over Optimus and the nVidia control panel no longer was doing the job. Why: The lag is the firmware switching over to the discrete GPU every time anything graphic related (like changing wallpaper, with or without transitions, or themeing) and since the Intel UHD is MORE than sufficient for that task, switching the app (DF in this case) that is changing the wallpaper to the default video method will stop this lag. How: Open up Settings, Go to Graphic Settings (search for it) click the drop down and choose classic app, click add, add DisplayFusion.exe, once added, click on displayfusion.exe in the list again and click on options and choose "Power Saving" as the method. Hopefully this can be marked as solved and stay here for anyone else who is having the problem with Optimus.

I mostly ignored it until I had time to search around or post this request.Īlso tried disabling application hooks, and trying the different aero color change modes, but none of those solved the problem.Īre there any new suggestions that I can look into? So far I've only used three different laptops in the last 8 months moving from one to the other with completely clean, debloated installs of windows before installing DF. The transitions suggestions doesn't change anything, I though it might have been Aero color changes, but that doesn't effect it, and the real rub is that this happens on ANY computer that I've had DisplayFusion on, I don't recall which version of windows or of DF when it started. I have it loading images from reddit for wallpaper changes every 30 minutes, each time, mouse cursor lag, freezing and typing doesn't work, instead it buffers all the text I'm typing, mouse movements and clicks, and then dumps them all at once when the wallpaper changes.
