Stuttering and lag on RTX 3080 TI

[Mr. Lolo]

Lot of times I have stuttering and lag on games like half life alyx, vrchat, etc... and I don't know what to do, my specs are:

RTX 3080 TI
16GB RAM
I7 10700K
ASUS Z590-PLUS MOTHERBOARD
Windows 10 and latest nvidia drivers.

Please help, I paid 1700$ mega overpriced rtx 3080 ti for just find 1500$ rtx 3090 1 week later that no one was buying, and now this, ima cry, i just want to properly vr.

im instantly assuming this to be on the drivers, try reverting the drivers.
other relevant information would be nice however

Haha retail for a 3090 in this brave new world of us is a steal. Bloody good show.

I have a rtx 3090 and a 3080 and they run fine. are you in direct mode? it's in developers section of steamVR in settings. Also, what supersampling are you using? Do you have motion smoothing on? what game are you experiencing the issues?

Stuttering and micro lags are known to be usually caused by some third-party software as Afterburner and the likes... Check if you have some real-time monitoring software from your motherboard or GPU vendors installed and try uninstalling them to see if this fix your issue

On spain basically no stock of FE came on official spanish seller, but some time ago I got a notification of a massive restock of all 3000 series for FE at original price lol, it lasted like an hour, it was crazy, sadly that I already bought my card.

I have some monitoring software like ASUS Lan utility and ASUS thing that monitors your fans and cpu, I will try unistalling.

I go check this once I get to my pc, but yeah I think I have motion smoothing on, games basically VRChat, half life alyx, didn't tried much more games.

In my experience stuttering is usually caused by something like the cpu throttling from high temps or maxed out vram usage on gpu. If you've got a decent cpu cooler I'd say the issue is probably SteamVR's resolution is set too high. SteamVR's gpu profiling sometimes overestimate if resolution is left on auto.

I've heard that VRChat usually doesn't run well because of all the un-optimized user created content, so it might not even be an issue with your system. I don't know why HL Alyx wouldn't run well though. If your SteamVR resolution ends up being +200% or something and the game's running ultra fidelity I can see it having trouble in that case.

Not VRAM problem because it wasn't even using 50%, not sure about CPU throttling, gonna check, and yeah I heard that about VRChat, about resolution, gonna check too.

Definitely test without the Asus software, including ASUS Aura if you have it, that's a known stutter cause.

Hi, I have a similar problem, did you manage to fix it?

So, one major issue that causes this or could be an issue is the PSU. I am running special PSU that gives full power per rail on the graphics card. I am not using adapters. If you are using adapters for your graphics card, it could be you are over heating it and it causes the card to down clock. check your temperatures. This goes for the CPU too. If you built the pc, you should be aware of this.

when i upgraded from my 2080ti and my 1080ti on both pc's, I had to buy new PSU. adapters on poor performing PSU causes GPU to fail.

check your Bios CPU settings

What VR headset are you using? A high resolution headset like the HP has problems rendering at 100%.
Try turning down your rendering resolution.

Other than that, it might as well be your PSU. Your PSU might not supply enough power for the 3080, if you're putting it into an old motherboard/PSU. Try running a benchmark or something, to deduce what the problem would be.
