I'm at a loss as to why this problem still exists and the fact that the "official fix" is to turn off graphics acceleration but then it runs like crap and stutters any time you try to do anything.

 

Anyone got any suggestions?

I already have a new GPU (RTX 3070) and I have updated drivers etc

Do you have a GSync enabled monitor? If so, try disabling GSync in the NVidia control panel.

NVIDIA Control Panel / 3D Settings / Manage 3D Settings / Program Settings

 

- Select Photoshop from list

- Change Monitor Technology from GSYNC Compatible to Fixed Refresh

 

Then it is solved for Photoshop.

If you use Adobe apps, you can't use GSync. It's a known bug and they've stated it will never be fixed.

Given G-Sync was designed for high screen refresh rates on games - i.e. fast moving images, it is not needed for Photoshop anyway.

Except for the fact that people use their machines for more than just Ps...

You only need to disable it for Photoshop though - not gaming apps
