osu! stutter lag [fix]

this fix might not work for everyone, please comment down below if you know any other fixes to help people out!

first of all If you dont have the Synergy option its normal, its a 3rd party program that can cause problems with osu, so if u dont have it just only worry about restarting superfetch!

other possible fixes
1 Reinstall your audio and video drivers.
2 Open task manager and check if anything is using up a lot of recourses and close some of the programs using the most recourses.
4 Turn off superfetch/sysmain this fix is only temporary, and you will have to do it every time you start lagging again.
5 Update/Reinstall your Game Ready drivers from Nvidia if you use that.
6 Check if you have at least 3-6gb storage available on the drive you have installed osu on.
7 Make sure your computer isn't overheating 80c and up.
8 Disable overlays u might have on examples, Discord game overlay, MSI afterburner overlay, any fps overlays, ect..
9 Do a virus scan as you might have a virus using up your recourses, would suggest doing a virus scan with Malwarebytes.

This is the only video I can find that has the exact type of stuttering I have. When when i tried the fix it didn't work. :(

[TobiasLeanderOfficial]

If your audio drivers has updated recently i would recommend reverting the update or reinstalling your audio drivers as this seems to fix the issue with the audio/video rollbacks, please reply to this post if that fixed it or not.
