Comment on Why do video cards get slow when there's an available update?

Are you sure it’s not throttling because of a thermal issue? Make sure the fans and heatsink are clean.
It could also be that the factory-applied thermal paste might have degraded over time and reapplying new thermal paste might solve the problem.

My man it doesn’t seem like you read the whole thing. This has been a thing I’ve noticed for like decades, on different cards and computers, this isn’t a tech support post

Honestly I haven’t noticed that, so yeah this sounds like a tech support issue on your end.

Literally just updated and weirdly enough, all the stuttering went away like magic. Agree to disagree I guess

Did you reboot as part of updating? If so, the reboot could have fixed it.
Also, how often do you check for updates when you’re not having problems? How long have the updates been out before you have performance issues and look for them?
