Hello,

After reinstalling Photoshop on my new computer i have this issue where the layer selection tool is leaving " ghost artifacts " while moving layers around.

is this a common problem?

I have not noticed this before in my previous installation of CC2019..

before you say " oh its your pc " let me list the hardware...

64gb ddr4 ram

NVIDIA 2080TI 2x (non SLI) latest drivers and such

INTEL 9900K Processor

WACOM Cintique 27HD as a monitor.

so the machine should not " lag "

any thoughts?

regards

    Have you tried to enable the legacy composition option in preferences and restart Photoshop?

    PS 2019 has had some issues regarding Ghosting, no matter how much RAM you have.  In preferences,  have you adjusted how much RAM is allocated to PS?  And as Francesco mentioned,  have you enabled Legacy Compositing? Also, have you installed the latest version of PS?  I know it addressed a lot of issues,  I'm not sure if it addressed that as of yet.

    the ram allocated was 45gb that  was not the issue i guess, i have the latest version of the gpu drivers and the latest version of PS since i just installed it the other day.
    however legacy compositing fixed the issue (for now)

    It seems a problem related to display driver...

    Have you tryied to disable the GPU?
