The Issue: I am experiencing a consistent frame rate drop over time. Upon a fresh boot, the system runs fluidly at 60Hz (verified via UFO Test website), which is my display max frame rate. However, after about an hour of use—specifically after watching videos or multitasking—the entire UI (including the cursor, shell animations, and all application) feels “heavy” and laggy. Re-running the UFO Rest confirms and shell are stucked at 24~30 FPS. The cursor movement is now visibly choppy. This persists across the entire session until a logout/login or reboot occurs. But when I reboot, the smoothness only stays for a short while and then turn back to the laggy/choppy status.
I’ve Tried:
-
Setting kernel parameters to disable PSR: Added
amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10or0x410toGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUXto disable the panel self refresh (PSR), but there was no change in behavior. -
Disable all extensions.
But none of them fix the issue. Therefore, I am wondering if there is a way to fix this issue. Thank you!
