Stuttering in games for no visible cause

Jass609

So i got this dell G3 after watching a video from Linus on it, the specs are

I5 8300H 3.9 GHz

8GB DDR4 2666MHZ ram

GTX 1050 4 GB

1 TB hard drive 

So the issue is when i play i play games like GTA V my FPS drops so bad sometimes the game is unplayable and i kicks me out of lobbies and sometimes the game crashes as well(it doesn't happens in fortnite tho)

I've tried every single solution i could find on YouTube but nothing has worked, I've tried it on all resolutions from low 800x600p to very high\ultra on 1920x1080 and V Sync on and off but nothing has fixed the issues i did reinstall the game a few times i did reinstall windows ad well and i just re-verified the game files today again but no luck so far 

there is no resources that are used like 99% while gaming or nothing thermal throttles i did do Intel XTU stress tests as well and the max was about 81 degrees after reapplying thermal paste

here is a video link with all temps and usages on the side and i was just 10 minutes into the game if i play for about 30 mins the stuttering is even worse-

Did you overclock your GPU by any chance? Or is it overclocked by the factory? Try to run it at stock settings. GTA is known to be a bit weird when it comes to GPU overclocks.

I was just running a -100 mv undervolt on the cpu because it was overheating besides that nothing else has been changed

Use ddu 

Check temps 

Dust off your laptop

Remove the undervolt, can cause instability. Or undervolt it less

What ?! No that would cause it to be even more unstable 🤣

undervolting is removing voltage from your cpu/gpu. It's great for lowering temps but can cause instabilities if you undervolt too much. Kinda the same as overclocking (You add voltage to make it more stable, sacrificing temps.)

First of all 

I know what undervolting is 

But I'm not sure if you know what it is 

It's not like ocing 

Undervolting more would cause more instability as the silicone has to work more to be conductive at lower voltage

And if it is not binned or decent quality 

Well then good luck 

Overclocking or over volting on the other hand is COMPLETELY THE OPPOSITE 

The silicon will have to do less work to be conductive do if the silicon is shit it will be better if you over volt 

What will be more work is in the PSU and the mobo

I know. But if he is undervolting, he is running it below the stock voltage of the manufacturer. It's not for nothing a manufacturer uses a certain voltage, otherwise they would be able to run all of their chips on lower voltages. In this case this user should return everything to their stock settings (so the voltage it runs on out of the box with no overclocks/underclocks anything) to see if it fixes his problem.

 

I recently had someone come to me with their pc with some issues and they were undervolting it too. Removed the undervolt and it was stable as it should have been.

 

Try undervolting your own cpu, at some point it will become unstable because it's not getting enough voltage to work properly. With some chips it'll be with -0.1 volt with others maybe more or less.

WTF no. undervolting can easily make a system unstable. will it run hotter/lower clocked without it yeah but that is fine.

Remove it and test again.
