Warzone 3 fps stuttering or too much 1% low

[Shinei Nouzen]

so my monitor is 1440p 165 hz monitor so i locked the frame rate at 165 fps however, every 20-45 seconds im getting the 1% fps drop. i dont even see the fps number, it completely freezes and then goes back upto 165 but it is too sudden and too often to consider it as normal.
My specs:
-rx 7800 x3d
-4070 ti super
-32 gb ddr5

-i have every setting on high, i've tried switching dlss to each mode(quality, auto, performance,balanced,ultra performance), nothing changed.
-VRAM scale target, switched between 50-80% nothing changed
-played around with windows power settings (balanced, high performance) nothing worked
-Everything is updated to the latest (video card, bios, all other drivers etc.)except the "Windows 23h2 update", this update made my fps go from 165 stable all the way down to 80-100, after I reset my windows and stopped the windows 23h2 update, my fps is as I explained above.

Any solutions ?

i wrote my cpu wrong.. its
ryzen 7 7800 x3d

just reinstalled my gpu driver, and just had stutter again and it lasted for a good 2 seconds. Also I just built this pc maybe 2 weeks ago

does it stutter then go back to normal like every 30/45 seconds?

[Shinei Nouzen]

yes, the fps goes down to 45-50, then it goes back upto 165, but the sudden drop just makes it stutter or freeze for a good second or two

lock CPU frequency

didnt work

it happened to me the last time, its the game nothing with ur pc
mine fixed when they came out with another update, sometimes these updates they come out with are ♥♥♥♥

[Shinei Nouzen]

yea i mean i dont have any problem with any other game, whether it be AAA games or flight simulator. but is there anything that I can do to fix this problem ?

Game optimization is garbage.
That said you can make it work, especially with your rig.

Search for fr33thy's yt channel, you need to watch and follow carefully 2 videos:

- MW3 Call of Duty Optimization Guide (https://youtu.be/xtyHHXBJLU8?si=uXPNcCIeMOb8hTgZ)

i reduced the fps cap from 165 down to 145, now it barely happpens but i doubt the root of the issue isfrom fps capping. its just trash optimization overall

it may not be the root but capping FPS is based and game pilled
though cod is a rare case were the ingame limiter works slightly better than RTSS - I also recommend in your case to make a custom resolution of lets say 150 and then set the ingame limiter to 146, so it's 4 less than the res/hz - it will lower latency a lot

also, did you try and change RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "2" in the ini files
to something like RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "7"
or even RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "16" with your banger cpu?

i just did a reinstall of the game and it reset that setting, causing gigantic lag spikes
has to be done for mw II and mw III separately as they have different ini files

unsure what those do so i havent changed anything in the games files.

game uses more threads correctly for rendering
