Insane stuttering (video)

Here is an exemple of why my game is barely playable at the moment. I already finished the game day one with some stutters but not as bad. I don't know if this is since the last patch.

Fps are locked with RivaTuner, No RT.
I tried 60fps locked, same results. Recompile shader cache, same. no DLSS, no gsync, no vsync, reinstall, changing disk, high performance power plan, low latency mode, no dualsense features... basically everything advised in forums and absolutely nothing changed. I hope it get fixed !

Do you use -dx11?
I used high preset with dlss performance
Turned off rt, dof and film grain.

I now only get some hitches on loading new area's for a second.
And when playing online for long time it gets bit stuttery aswell. Unacceptable.

I just tried and its the same, but thx

[Xniperwolf]

same for me and in bosses or bigger rooms with enemies inside, it takes an insane amount of time to load everything

[Sang-de-brume]

It doesnt seem to load anything for me because as you can see in the video the spikes/stutters happen basically in the same spots. but in a lot of them on a single zone. I didnt have this problem day one.

I'm having the same problem, game starts well, after some minutes of gameplay the fps just tank and can't get back to normal numbers, my GPU works at 100% when it should be working fine. I've tried everything and can't get around it

[Sang-de-brume]

Im having this from the start of my session and my fps are "fine", just losing 20-30 fps during a stutter. For your GPU its normal to be at 100% usage if you're not locking your fps.

Ouch thats rough :(

Ive just completed the game now, 5120x1440@240hz , ryzen 3900X, RTX3080 Strix (latest drivers), 32GB ram, Win11, game and os on SSD.
I had one occasion where the game fps suddenly just tanked in the middle of a fight, after that i turned down settings to High and played through the rest without any mentionable stutters (there was one here and one there, but nothing annoying, certainly nothing like what you recorded).

Not sure what would cause this for you, i have done no overclocking or anything. Dunno if youre on Win11 or Win10, so that might be different, and also your CPU is newer so of course it could be that, but seems strange..

I have the exact same stutter on my rig with 3070 with RT off. No matter if I put graphics to Low or High, it stays the same. I use DF optimized settings and the funny thing is the FPS is super stable on screen. The 2 first biomes were quite stable on the stuttering side, mostly traversal ones, it's noticeable but playable. The third one has definitely more of them, and it was reproductable on all presets, I'll wait for a patch at this point, too intrusive for me.

Try Deleting shader cache to force recompile if you've updated your graphics drivers recently. Lock to 60 fps in game and nvidia control panel.

I have weaker than your PC and don’t have this problem.
Check if your RAM is working fine with xmp/docp on. It caused stutters in Elden Ring for some people.
Task manager -> performance-> memory -> speed and slots used.

Here is my 3600Mhz with
wrong settings: https://ibb.co/hyhr5jk
correct settings: https://ibb.co/8bh5vKg

Other than that maybe your CPU is overheating?

Just refund the game until they patch this.

No its a problem with the game. Classic Unreal + Dx12 issue that we see time and time again. "Capping to 60" is something alot of ppl say is a "fix" thats not a fix thats just making performance crappy on purpose cos game cant stop stuttering

The game works fine for many people so it’s not just the game.
