From Tom's Hardware: A fix is on the way to solving the Discord bug plaguing Nvidia's GeForce gaming graphics cards. However, you may or may not already have the update since it apparently automatically downloads itself to your system without your knowledge. We've asked Nvidia for clarification on precisely who is affected, how the fix gets applied, and some other details and are still awaiting a reply, but here's what we know.
Nvidia announced the update(opens in new tab) for Discord a couple of days ago; however, the chipmaker's vague statement caused more confusion among GeForce graphics card owners. The post didn't include instructions other than that the patch will arrive as an OTA (over-the-air) update. Apparently, it practically requires no user intervention other than restarting their systems for it to take effect.
"NVIDIA GeForce users can now download an application profile update for Discord. This resolves a recent issue where some GeForce GPUs' memory clocks did not reach full speed while Discord was running in the background. The NVIDIA display drivers will automatically download and apply the updated application profile to your PC the next time you log into Windows. NVIDIA GeForce application profiles are a group of software settings used by the NVIDIA graphics driver to provide optimum performance when using a selected application," stated Nvidia in a recent blog post(opens in new tab).
