Photoshop lag when using master brush and smudge tool

[mario27016171q7p9]

Hello, 

I just built a new PC, and photoshop lags when I am using the master brush and smudge tool. Sometimes it lags so much that photoshop becomes unrresponsive, and I have to quit it via the task manager. My PC should have more than enough power to run photoshop without any lag. 

Steps I have tried to fix the problem: 

1) turned off smoothing 

2) allocating max resources to photoshop by using the performance settings.

3) Overclocking PC to increase performance

4) Updated graphics card driver

Does anyone have any suggestions that could help me solve these lag issues? 

Thanks 

PC Specs: 

processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-core, 32-Thread

RAM: 128GB DDR4

GPU: nvidia geforce 3090

Photoshop version: Photoshop 2023 

platform: Windows 10 Pro

You have almost most powerful machine at the moment. Can you expand Brush Settings and capture screenshot. Try to reset Brush Settings, in the past it was happening to me with huge brush size and Scattering.
