Re: [PC] Extreme Start Up Lag In Mass Effect

The only thing I can think of is maybe a corrupted game-profile of the nvidia driver. You could try downloading nvidia inspector and optimize your settings according to this guide ("advanced tweaking"). You should first try to reset every setting shown under the Mass Effect 3 profile.

[edit]I found this regarding lag in ME2. Not sure if it'll help, but surely worth a try, should be the same procedure for ME3. Some people could set the affinity back to all cores after confirming the affinity to one core as well and ME would still run smoothly.

    Setting the affinity unfortunately did not work, and being unfamiliar with the Nvidia inspector, I had no idea where to find it. I googled Nvidia Inspector but there as no reliable Nvidia website, and I would prefer a trusted site. Thanks for the help thus far, once I get the inspector and attempt it I can go from there.

    You can get it from here. Guru3D is one of the best known graphics cards websites. It's not an official nvidia tool, but given that nvidia themselves are using it in the guide I linked from their official page, it's at least endorsed.
