Created attachment 178317 [details] Desktop artifacts/graphical issues SUMMARY I was playing Baldur's Gate 3 and CS2 today while having Night Light on. I have noticed that the desktop became sluggish while playing BG3 and seconds later, the whole entire desktop, along with some Electron programs (Discord) started having weird graphical issues. After trying CS2, everything was fine except the Steam that overlay started being extremely sluggish and having weird graphical issues. I have attached an image of the graphical issues. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a game on the NVIDIA GPU (as of now, I have found that the desktop graphical issues only happen with BG30 2. Leave the game running for a while 3. Tab out and try to use Discord 4. Notice how after a while things start to go crazy 5. All of these while having Night Light on OBSERVED RESULT Upon turning off Night Night, while playing BG3 the general sluggishness of the desktop went away along with the artifacting of the desktop and I have have noticed that CS2 gained 100fps compared compared to when I had Night Light on. EXPECTED RESULT Desktop and general performance should not be impacted by this.
