Clean AMD & NVIDIA Shader Cache
Over time, your graphics card stores temporary files in a shader cache to speed up game load times and performance. Occasionally, this cache can become corrupted, leading to stuttering, graphical glitches, or performance issues. These scripts provide a safe and easy way to clear the cache for your specific GPU vendor.
