Big Picture overlay extremely laggy
Hello, I am posting on this forum to find out if others are in the same situation as me, and if any of you have a solution or a clue to solve my problem.

I just discovered the new Big Picture interface and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I started to enjoy it, but unfortunately, when I open the in-game overlay, it is almost impossible to navigate, the menu lags heavily... (I play on a QHD (1440p) monitor).

After several tests, I realized that the overlay works without any issues when I lower the resolution of my games. At 1080p, the menu is usable but still slow, and at 720p, everything works perfectly. I tried it on my laptop, and there were no problems, everything works fine. I also tried it on a friend's PC with a similar configuration to mine, and there were no issues on their end.

So, the problem probably comes from my own desktop. I explored several possibilities to find the origin of the problem:

- Updating my drivers
- Disabling G-Sync
- Disabling the GeForce overlay
- Uninstalling/reinstalling Steam
- Uninstalling Wallpaper Engine
- Changing the installation directory of my games
- Checking the power mode of Windows (high performance)
- Checking the memory usage (no saturation)

But nothing worked... Do you have any potential idea of the origin of the problem?

Thank you in advance to those who will take the time to read and respond to me!

Hey, I have some news to share.

After few more tests, I think i found something. By disabling GPU accelerated rendering, the in-game overlay is working perfectly again regardless of the game resolution. However, the smoothness of Big Picture is reduced when I'm not in-game.

It appears that there is an issue with GPU accelerated rendering. When it is enabled, Big Picture functions correctly, but the overlay is unusable at high resolution. On the other hand, when it is disabled, Big Picture is slowed down, but the overlay works perfectly.

Bit of an old post, but you've described perfectly my problem.

The original BPM did not have this problem. The issue was introduced with the BPM redesign.

I haven't tried disabling GPU acceleration yet but I will today.

I've been struggling with this for ages.

What is your hardware like?

I'm on an Intel 12600k, 3080ti gpu, and 32gigs of ram. And I play on a 4k monitor and the lag makes the in game overlay pretty much impossible to use.

Hey, i recently switch to an amd gpu (7800xt) and the issue was gone.
Maybe something related to Nvidia drivers ?

My old config was I5 13600kf, 1070ti and 32go ram.
I only switch the gpu.

Dang. I'd rather not replace my 3080 TI yet 😅
Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll mess around in the invidia control panel or something.

Anyone other fixes? Can't even use BPM overlay. Sometimes it won't even open up after a few times.

Pretty sure I have the fix for this, it's a windows setting.

System > Display > Graphics > Change default graphics settings
Set Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling to off
Restart computer

My man, you are a god.

I just tested this. Ran BG3 and it is smooth as butter. (Well at least as smooth as new BPM can get)

Thank you for sharing this!

I have RX 6800 XT which has no hardware acceleration feature but the BPM is insanely laggy.

For me, enabling "Use Big picture Overlay" when using the controller in the "In Game" menu did the trick.
Disabling GPU acceleration made the big picture main menu unusable for me

The original workaround of disabling gpu scheduling didn't work for all games. Seemed game specific depending on how intensive it was.

I just tested your solution and it's working great. Nice find 👍👍👍

You are the god now

Finding this now in 2025 and it worked for me as well

I legitimately am lost on WHY this works though, it doesn't make ANY sense. Steam already uses the Big Picture UI if you launch a game via BPM, why on EARTH does enabling this suddenly make it stop performing like garbage?
