Resizable BAR had a TREMENDOUS impact on my fps/stuttering
If your computer supports it turn it on...... it changed the entire game for me. Went from a stuttering mess to a fantastic smooth play. If you have 30/40 series Nvidia TURN ON RESIZEABLE BAR.

I should note not every single stutter is gone but it makes the game 1000% better. Stutters now only happen around obvious loading zones and things that make more sense for the game to have a small stutter. My game is no longer just stuttering endlessly in every single room, No matter what.

Through your motherboard's BIOS settings, if your hardware supports it.

This is a good place to start, but you might feel like giving up before you even start lol, very few games actually support it and if a game doesn't you'll need something like Nvidia Inspector to get around it.

It's also hit or miss with performance, games that officially support it will average about 5-10% improved performance give or take, for most games you'll see no improvement at all, in some cases it can make things worse although it's generally a couple fps at most so pretty negligible.

You have to ♥♥♥♥ with your BiOS and it can actually hurt some games. I'd only do it if I was desperate. That's just me, maybe you're a wizard with that sort of stuff.

There is absolutely no risk involved. The worst that could happen is that it doesn't improve the performance in any noticeable way and the only reason it's turned off by default is to prevent compatability issues with certain set ups. For example: SAC memory (AMD's version of this feature) only works with a Radeon GPU and Ryzen CPU.

I'm only seeing reports of this happening with NVIDA cards. What about AMD?

AMD setups have it On by default

Mine didn't. And I'm talking about performance differences.

was it disabled in the mobo BIOS ?

I don't know. Played offline and it ran fantastically and smooth! I played online again and it stuttered here and there.

Yes. I had to turn it on in BIOS, before I could enable it in Adrenaline.

You need to use nVidia Inspector to enable reBar support in games that don't officially support it - provided you have reBar enabled in your BIOS first.

Didn't you make this post yesterday and already farm my points from me.... ?

It DID make my experience 'smoother', however repost.
-1 to you sir! :)

OP is correct! I've followed all instructions and enabled it. It adds significant fps boost!
