Discord is slowing down graphics card memory clocks on some Nvidia GPUs.

A recent Discord update has introduced a bug that slows down memory clocks by up to 200MHz on some Nvidia models, including the RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 Ti.

Reddit users and Linus Tech Tips forum posters spotted the bug, and Nvidia was quick to acknowledge the problem and offer a temporary workaround.

If you notice your memory clocks are dropping by up to 200MHz, you can download a GeForce 3D profile manager and apply a fix early.

Discord recently started rolling out an update that enables AV1 streaming with GeForce RTX 40-series cards.

This update appears to have introduced the memory clock issues on some RTX 30-series cards, but Reddit users with RTX 40-series cards haven’t experienced the same slowdowns.
