Hi there, I have a quick question regarding my system and mouse lag with nvidia proprietary drivers on X11 using OBS with NVENC.

My system runs great with red dead redemption 2 for around 40 minutes until I begin to lose frames when mouse looking. I can leave the mouse and perform intensive graphical actions and it still runs perfectly without mouse input.

I assume it might be a misconfiguration on the mouse or a known bug with nvidia but am unsure of exactly where to begin looking and/or what terminology I should use to Web search the problem.

Could anyone please point me in the right direction?

The game has a known vram leak bug. I'm going to look into that as well as my compositor set-up. I think you might be right about it not being the mouse as the desktop is still very smooth.
