Hello,

First, I would like to thanks Kitware’s developer for providing such great tool.

When trying to upgrade to **6.0.1** , I noticed weird latency/wiggles of the meshed actor when interacting with a sphere source, which was not occurring with **5.11.** I attached on screenshot video for each version, trying my best to highlight the issue.

Trying with a colleague of mine laptop’s revealed that the issue was due to our graphics card being slightly different, as reported by the `Help -> About` We have exactly the same fields except:

| My laptop | His | |

Here is my full `Help -> About` report for **6.0.1:**

In 5.11 you are somehow NOT using your GPU.  
Maybe try doing that in 6.0.1 ?

Could you point me how to disable GPU usage in Paraview ?

This is not controlled by ParaView but by your system. Typically this should be done in NVidia Settings or Windows settings directly.

Indeed, deactivating the NVIDIA GPU temporary fixed the issue, as Paraview 6.0 now reports using Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics.

Do you think issuing a bug report in gitlab Paraview could help being able to use the GPU ?

this is probably a nvidia driver issue, not a ParaView issue. Please update your nvidia driver.

~~Issue solved by updating nvidia drivers.~~

Actually, the issue only appears when having a second screen plugged, even after updating GPU drivers.

FYI: I’ve tried 2 different screens without any difference.

If that can help, it seems that the whole GUI is affected. See attached video.

That points even more to a driver issue. No idea how to fix it though.
