Photoshop brush/eraser lag

Lydia M

After trying so many "fixes" and working with Adobe and Wacom tech support I finally have Photoshop working without any lag. I'm so happy. It was a combo of hardware and software issues. Here's what I did:

Plugged my Cintiq into my high performance graphics card with a DVI to DP adapter
Disabled my integrated Intel graphics card
Updated high performance card driver
Removed "All User Preferences" in the Wacom Tablet Preference File Utility
Reinstalled Wacom driver
Deleted AdobePhotoshopCC2019Prefs.psp from the Photoshop Settings folder
Deleted PSUserConfig.txt file from Photoshop Settings folder
Enabled Windows Ink

Things that didn't work for me:

Turned off brush smoothing
Turned off rulers
Disabled Windows Ink and used PSUserConfig file to "trick" Photoshop
Disabled Use GPU in Photoshop Performance Settings

@Lydia-M No it is not just you I have given up PS because of lag on the brushes and also they dont support windows 8 anymore . No problems with Clip studio paint
