Specs?

Buzzing can be coil wine, something in a fan blade, etc

But need details

Sorry im a pc noob, only had pc for a year and never had to learn about stuff like this because the pc was a gift from a family member so forgive me if im being really stupid here but i have an AMD FX - 6300 six-core processor and 8GB of RAM, the buzzing sound only happens on this game i should note.

I dont mean to be the bearer of unwanted news but a PC like that isnt a gift, its a hand me down.

Honestly amazed bl3 even works at all. That cpy was new in 2013. May not seem that long ago but picture it in dog years, makes more sense to explain it that way.

Your probably stressing the system too much and the buzzing most likely is your fans inside the machine running at maximum rpm to keep thermals down.

I guess you're right i dont know much at all so i couldnt tell you otherwise, but the weird thing is i get 60 fps consistantly (still get stuttering and buzzing) and i run way more demanding games just fine on this setup, but thank you for the help man

Reduce all the graphical settings to their lowest levels. And perhaps even lower resolution to 720p. See if that lessens or stops the noise.

Does sound somewhat like the coil on the gfx card protesting like hell!

I recommend tuning settings then. Turn things off, on, lower settings, etc. find the balance that either completely solves the issues or at least partially.

Try to install the UE4 prequisites, it's in your borderlands 3 folder, in D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Borderlands 3\Engine\Extras\Redist\en-us

that solved stutter both for me and a friend. give it a try

Try what tumbz recommended, that fixed my problems.

np fam
I still don't know why on earth Gearbox / Steam doesn't pre-install those prequisites the first time you launch the game, but whatever...
