Games stuttering

[Typsylol]

Posted earlier this week about this but wanna know if there is anyone out there that knows how to stop fps stutters in many games. I mainly see it in overwatch and a bit on other games. Really only use my pc for games and a bit of school.

Ryzen 7 3700x
6600xt
32gb ram

Games are on in ssd :)

Cap the FPS

cap the fps and maybe turn on v-sync if available

Have you turned off game DVR, disabled game mode, and other game bar related stuff ?

Well you're going to have to turn off the firmware tpm to see if it's causing it. I don't know why you started another thread. You didn't even have any new details. Did you ever even try anything that was mentioned in the other thread?

I'm so confused why you started another thread, never came back to the old thread after many things were listed.

We don't even know what windows you're using. Ryzen video games stutter is going to be tied to the firmware. You have to disable it in the bios. You can also get a tpm module to bypass the fTPM.

Well go ahead and list some things you tried to remedy the stutter. Right now the ftpm is something that you should rule out. The web page I linked covers the stutter in detail. It happens on windows 10 and 11. Go ahead and give it a look as it's a real issue.

Lock FPS, and remove all overclocking for CPU, RAM, and GPU.

[SenMithrarin85]

lock the fps...

locking the fps is irrelevant if the render thread is being interrupted. vsync on/off, gsync on/off, fps caps etc all won't hide them. whether it be 600fps or 60, you'd still see them. Only variable is more frames are discarded at higher framerates.

The only remotely relevant response has come from post #6. Although this to my knowledge only affects windows 11 and the OP hasn't included which OS they're running.

In my experience stutters are usually caused by 1 of 5 things:

1) the game engine
2) av software's realtime scanning
3) the intel rapid storage driver
4) amd cppc
5) storage media used

we can rule out 3 and 5 at least.

Sadly I don't think the OP will return. I feel they may be waiting for that magic comment that fixes their stutter. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way and it's starting to look like the OP is simply ignoring advice because they didn't get the answer they want. It would be helpful if the OP would at least try to turn off the ftpm so we can rule that out. It's not windows 11 only. It also happens on windows 10, if you have the ftpm enabled which is likely.

I mean, there were numerous replies to your issue before that, and you never ever once made a follow up reply. I could get how they might be frustrating but the discussion that happened later didn't make the suggestions towards you go away, did they? Without you coming back and replying to any of the suggestions made, there was nowhere else to go with it until you did. And, unfortunately, I've observed there's been a tendency to veer discussion towards why AMD is bad these past few months.

Anyway, even if that was the case (you felt frustrated your thread for help got overtaken by something else), you still failed to provide information or feedback to any of those suggestions when reposing this thread. That's just going to make the people who offered help before less likely to even want to try.

That brings me to my final point, where I'll try and offer what little help I can. Information in, information out. You can't just hope you'll get a magical response on little information provided. It's like saying "my PC crashes, why" and expecting the exact fix. It may happen, but you increase the chances when you provide more information. You reposted this two days later just to add that you play the games from an SSD. You did list your hardware and one game, and that you have stuttering as your issue, but more information might be helpful.

What other games does this affect?

What is the nature of the stuttering (is it consistent, is it frequent, is it at certain times, etc.)?

Does it happen outside games too or no?

I imagine temperatures are okay given it's relatively newer hardware and unlikely to be dusty, but it's worth checking temperatures.

What operating system?

What PSU?

Lastly, if it mostly affects one thing/game, it might be better to seek advice relevant to Valorant if that's the prime case? Afterall, if I had a Minecraft issue, I'd probably stand a better chance of success seeking Minecraft channels in addition to or even rather than Steam (not saying you can't ask here, mind you, but if it's mostly a Valorant thing it's a thought).

It looks like AMD is aware finally.

Disable TPM (might be labeled different on AMD BIOS boards)
Disable Secure Boot.

Clean install your OS if you have to.

If using Win10 it will really help to do a clean install from self-made USB after making that USB for Win10 64bit 21H2. Then once in Windows, do all the Windows Updates and also look at what Optional Updates are present. Google the KB# of the optional ones and install any that are a performance based hot-fix.

Then disable Windows auto driver install feature; Fast Startup and Hibernation.
Reboot as needed.

Then download + install all latest drivers. Namely the AMD Ryzen Chipset Driver and latest AMD Radeon GPU drivers + software.

well thats weird cause I am not on Windows 11

[Bad 💀 Motha]

It can happen in Win10 as well.

Well, I just bought a game and was playing it for the first time and talk about stuttering! Wow! Never had experienced it to this extent and I have an Intel/NVIDIA system. So I searched and came up with this guide which...worked. To a large extent. Still have very minor stuttering but at least the game is playable--before, I wanted to throw it in the garbage can.

So even if you don't have AMD and you have this highly, highly annoying issue in Windows 11 try this. It does involve several keys in the registry so I would be careful and all that.

Again, just for Windows 11, it seems.
