"Negative" effect occurring randomly throughout gameplay
- A problem with the image randomly becoming negative on RTX 4xxx cards has been reported with NVIDIA drivers newer than 522.25.[5][6]
- NVIDIA driver 527.37 contains a fix for this bug[7], alternatively can be fixed by downgrading to version 522.25 or older.
- It seems certain AMD CPUs with asymmetric CCDs (e.g. 7900x3D, 7950x3D) are having severe stuttering issues on Windows due to dynamic core parking.[8]
Set the Windows power plan to High Performance to prevent core parking[9]

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (1449560) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
- ↑ "Current" only applies it for this launch of the game, "Always" means Process Lasso will apply the setting automatically on every launch (may be a paid feature, unsure).
