Stuttering Troubles

[Rilenator1]

Hey everyone!

 

Throughout the past couple months my PC has been giving me some issues. My computer has a problem where it stutters in most games. For example: Starfield is currently unplayable. There will be times where I will watch my CPU and GPU usage drop simultaneously casuing immense stutter. Fortnite consistently stutters due to inconsistent GPU usage and CS 2/Rainbow Six Siege will also stutter in-game from time to time. I have tried uninstalling and re-installeing GPU drivers multiple times through DDU, and have tried uninstalling and re-installing WIndows 11 a few times on different SSD's on my PC. Everything on my PC is up to date as well. I have the newest Chipset drivers, BIOS software, and my AMD drivers are currently on 23.9.3. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

 

My specs are:

Cpu: Ryzen 9 3900X currently at 4 GHz

GPU: XFX Speedster 6700XT

RAM: 4x8 Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 MHz

Mobo: ASUS X570 TUF Gaming

PSU: 750 watt Gold

Storage:

• 1 TB WD Blue Hard drive
• 125 GB Samsung SSD,
• 500GB WD SN 750 SSD

Zen 2 is for 30-45 fps in Starfield. Better in most other games, but still weak, especially for 1080p.

Time to upgrade.

Do you have anything in event viewer?

 

Have you looked into the fTPM stutter stuff? (I thought it was resolved by now, but I might be mistaken)

I assume it is not installed to your hard drive?

Prior to this, the computer did not stutter? Though, I assume that would only apply to Siege, since CS2 and Starfield were released recently.

Hey!

 

To answer your questions:

 

1. I haven't paid attention to event viewer unless my pc crashes or an application crashes, which usually isn't the case for me.

 

2. I have not looked into fTPM but I will try turning it off in my BIOS to see if that fixes anything

 

3. I have tried Starfield on both an HDD and SSD

 

4. The Fortnite issue has been going on for about two years now, but the SIege / CS2 / Starfield is actually new.

Be careful with that, I'm not sure you can just turn it off/on on Windows 11, especially if you're using encryption.

Apparently you cannot turn off fTPM on WIndows 11 so I'll exclude that one from the troubleshooting list.
