Does anyone have any more ideas or insights?

I tried this with both i440x and q35 machines and it still does it. I even enabled MSI with each try.

Does anybody have any input? I set the VM up according to the Space Invader One tutorial and it worked fine for years. Now on upgrading unraid it's causing this stuttering issue.

Here's a copy of the VM configuration xml: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' id='3'> <name>Productivity VM</name> <uuid>ebadb672-b6c9-2a5b-8493-b5a3e325f3d4</uuid> <metadata>

Hi all, I upgraded my Unraid server from 6.7.2 to 6.11.5 and started to experience audio and UI stuttering on my Windows 10 VM. I passthrough an Nvidia gpu and have made sure to enable MSI. All the same setting as I was running on 6.7.2 but now I get audio and UI stuttering. Downgrading Unraid makes everything run smoothly again. I tried linux mint with the same VM settings and it doesn't stutter. Windows 11 also experiences stuttering on Unraid 6.11.5. Any suggestions?
