Improve Starfield Performance by Forcing a Shader Recompile: Everything You Need to Know

🚀 Ready to unlock the full visual potential of Starfield? Watch this step-by-step tutorial to learn how to force recompile shaders, ensuring a smoother gameplay experience! In Starfield, shader compilation issues can lead to graphical glitches and performance hiccups. Whether you're an NVIDIA or AMD user, we've got you covered.
For NVIDIA users, we'll show you how to clear the DX Cache and tweak settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel to jumpstart the shader recompilation process. AMD users, don't worry, we've got your back too! We'll guide you through accessing and resetting the shader cache via Radeon Software.

I did this for my AMD system and finally something that permanently fix the stutter/lag I had.
Whatever else settings I changed like running in bordered window only worked for a while then it came creeping back.
But for me the game did not rebuild the shaders after, it just worked like when I started the game first time smooth and I can use whatever settings I want. Thanks.
