Potential fix for dual monitor lag

1
Author Content Date
Soma has been almost unplayable on my main PC, the lag/stutter due to the dual monitor bug has meant I need to relog every 15-20 mins. Today on a whim I tried disabling Windows 10's built in Game Mode and the lag is pretty much gone. Still seems to be a slight slowdown, but nowhere near as noticeable as before.

A couple of people on Discord have tried it and had similar results. If you're affected and running W10 give it a go and post your results here

The easiest way to find it is to just search for "Game Mode" from the Start menu and it should take you directly to a settings page where you can turn it off

It seems that you can actually expect improved game performance if you turn it off... https://www.techradar.com/uk/news/windows-10-users-should-turn-this-feature-off-now-for-better-gaming-performance

Remember reading a similar article a while back and that's what prompted me to give it a go today
