If we are Discord users , we can see that it is complete with functions, actions and many variables both for work on servers, channels and chats, these functions can usually be affected if they are worked in a team with few resources. But in modern computers Discord integrates with hardware acceleration , that is, with this function the power of the processing tasks of the graphics card (GPU) is increased..
In addition to this, the processor or CPU is also used in a normal way, this use of resources can cause an impact on the performance and speed of the computer for other types of tasks that are more delicate. Discord enables this function by default and if the objective is to disable it, we will see how to achieve it.
