Hi guys,
I srsly think this problem should have been solved years ago, but here we are:
If you search the symptoms you will find multiple topics (even in this forum), that are regarding the same issue. (Even early 2017, 2016)
My PC: Gigabyte 1070TI, 4790k, 16gb ddr3, MSI 790FXGD70, 750PSU.
Setup: 3 Monitors: GSYNC 1440p@144hz, 2x1080p@60Hz
The problem:
Whenever I start a Netflix stream, Amazon video or Spotify song, the PC consistently starts to stutter at a constant rate. (every 1-3s, depending on which monitors are active and if multiple videos are open.)
This can be felt e.g. by moving the mouse or watching an animation.
For all 3 apps this happens with chrome and canary, as well as for Netflix and Amazon with firefox.
This issue has been present on my PC for over a year, so multiple versions of all programs and drivers have been testet.
Windows was also reinstalled and graphics drivers deep removed.
If none of the mentioned apps are open the PC runs like hot butter, no issues in any other application.
Using only 1 Monitor only changes the rate of the stutter.
Changing the GPU clock does not alleviate the problem, closing AUROS also doesn't.
Changing VSYNC/GSYNC settings in Control Panel does not help.
Changing 144Hz to 60Hz didn't help.
NVIDIA promised a fix on more than one occasion, but they either can't manage it or refuse to do so.
I can provide videos, gifs and more information about the problem.
Is there any way we can find the root of this problem?
Did I miss anything?
Can we get NVIDIA to do something or help them fix it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
