RTX 4060 issues ?
Going back to an earlier, stable driver version is usually recommended:
For RTX 40-series graphics cards
Version 566.36:
People using these cards often mention this as a reliable and "problem-free" driver. Some tests suggest that an even older version, 566.03, might provide slightly improved performance, but 566.36 is generally favored for its consistency.
Clear the shader cache:
To refresh the DirectX shader cache on Windows 10 or 11, follow these instructions:
Open the Start Menu
and type Disk Cleanup,
then launch the Disk Cleanup application.
Choose the drive where Windows is installed (typically C
, and click OK.In the Disk Cleanup window, find and check the box for "DirectX Shader Cache".
Click OK and then Delete Files to remove the shader cache.
Once done, it's a good idea to restart your computer so the cache can be regenerated.
For a more comprehensive cleanup specifically for Nvidia shaders:
Open the Nvidia Control Panel.
Navigate to Manage 3D Settings.
Set Shader Cache size to Disabled.
Restart your PC.
Execute Disk Cleanup to remove the DirectX Shader Cache.
Afterward, turn the shader cache size back on and restart again.
This procedure removes outdated or damaged shader files that can lead to stuttering and performance problems, prompting the system and GPU to recompile shaders anew during gameplay.
It may be necessary to uninstall the current Nvidia driver using ddu, download the older version from the official Nvidia website, and then clean your shader cache.
It doesn’t seem to be a hardware issue, but driver-related problems are common among high FPS gamers. Try increasing settings to high or ultra—your PC can handle CS2 at around 180fps in ultra 1080p.
The stuttering might just be caused by running at low settings with a high frame rate. Consider turning off V-Sync and enabling VRR (FreeSync Premium/G-Sync Compatible), while disabling DyAc features for the best low-latency and smooth performance.
Well, let's make sure the monitor driver is updated as well. There are also several extra steps to follow for achieving high frame rates in competitive games:

GPU achieved 108308 at full voltage and 103167 with undervolting applied. Undervolting slightly lowers the card's performance, which helps ease the issue of high frame pacing. This is mainly due to uneven driver and synchronization settings.
Dynamic Accuracy and VRR conflict means you have to choose between them. High Dynamic Accuracy can reduce input latency if your system can handle it, such as 1080p at 180fps for CS2. Alternatively, 1080p with around 382fps could work if your monitor supports it.
In scenes with heavy effects or FX, VRR is better to keep up with frame adjustments and maintain smooth visuals.
If needed, consider these steps:
- Clean driver installation using NVCleaninstall for minimal setup.
- Check game files for corruption via Steam client.
- Turn off unnecessary background apps and overlays, as they can affect performance.
If you're not sure about pushing limits for maximum frames, it might just be about finding balanced driver settings. You could also reach out to the Steam community for more experienced advice or specific recommendations.
Before deciding, test different settings and weigh the trade-offs between input latency and frame quality. Even with lower input latency, strong situational awareness can still be crucial in competitive play.

08-14-2023, 04:33 AM #14My current driver is 566.36. I've tried everything, done a few installs with nvcleaninstall, adjusted settings, turned off dyac and similar options. Still nothing works. I've used all my knowledge to ask for help, unfortunately. If this didn't impact input lag that much, I wouldn't bother at all, but it makes the game unplayable and difficult to enjoy.
It seems the issue only appears at 1080p when aiming for high frame rates or with higher resolutions and settings that result in lower frame rates. The goal is to determine if the problem can be resolved by adjusting resolution and settings, which would indicate whether the GPU is functioning properly. Regarding the high frame rate of 360fps at 1080p, you might try reducing it to 240fps or 144fps. You have a capable system—even if it feels extreme for CS:GO. However, if the problem only emerges when you attempt to increase the frame rate significantly, it’s uncertain whether that will succeed at rates above 240fps. It would be helpful to know if others have found similar solutions, such as specific settings on YouTube. Generally, your personal experience with one computer isn’t enough to draw clear conclusions without comparison. Finding a way to toggle the issue by changing resolution could help confirm if the GPU is functioning correctly. For resolving the need for high frame rates at 1080p, consider contacting your monitor manufacturer’s tech support or NVIDIA. Your CPU and GPU combination could potentially surpass the monitor’s 360Hz by a small margin, but many factors influence performance.
The only improvement noticed is when adjusting settings in bios, the computer might run smoother for a short time before slowing down again.
Yes, I've experimented with various YouTube videos, streamer settings, and pro configurations, but nothing has worked.
I don't perceive any change, switching from 16:9 to 4:3 for more frames doesn't make a difference.

It's crucial to confirm that your main system functions correctly. A CPU benchmark gives a solid clue the processor is working fine. Stress testing could take a long time, possibly hours or days.
When deciding to return it, let the RMA process decide based on the issue presented. Fingers crossed you get the right outcome.
It's possible the GPU has a flaw. There doesn't appear to be a straightforward solution—every attempt you made didn't help. Likely you'll need to clarify your reason for returning the card, so if you're certain it's defective, send it back. Alternatively, seek additional feedback, such as from NVIDIA, to document your efforts.

It's strange, jumping into Valorant or Fortnite causes endless shader stuttering. It feels like my shaders keep failing to save and must be reloaded repeatedly—whether I start a new skill, flash, or move to a different area on the map. The stuttering keeps happening even when something new appears on the screen. In Valorant, it shows up as a CPU wait and GPU time spike at the same moment. Could my GPU not be powerful enough for my CPU?
Last attempt: you might boost the shader cache size to 100GB to try and reduce issues (in Nvidia Cpanel global settings, I believe).
It seems there’s no input lag from the keyboard and mouse either—this doesn’t appear to be a common reason for stuttering.
Perhaps the problem is actually with the GPU; after testing various settings, there doesn’t seem to be a suitable option left.
If you’re unsure, it’s okay to ask the technical support staff at Nvidia, your card manufacturer, or the game developers. The depth of troubleshooting depends on it—there should be a clear point where things stabilize, right?
You might be able to achieve your goal by running at a higher frame rate on the AM5 platform with an AMD 4+3060 Ti. In short, your CPU should be more than sufficient for the GPU and the games you plan to play.

I've been experiencing stutters and freezes for over a year, they started randomly.
It began while I was playing pro in Valorant; even after changing the whole system, they persisted.
Now I'm trying to identify the cause of these issues but haven't found a solution.
I've read countless things about potential causes and tried everything, yet I can't enjoy a game.
When the PC was running smoothly, it needed nothing—just enable EXPO, install Windows, and that's it.
I decided to switch my AIO cable to the 3-way version instead of all in one, hoping it would help, but I still tried.
Interesting note: I've built a million systems for friends and none had any problems.
I've experimented with unlimited cache, used four different mice and keyboards. The monitor is brand new, and I just replaced it as well.
