1% Lows in Spider Man: Miles Morales

[Zombroski]

Does anyone have a fix for 1% lows? 

Noticed it a lot more when I am playing this game but I think I can feel the 1% lows when I am playing other games too, just not as much.

 

I have noticed that the FPS drops from around 180 to 1 at time too.

 

CPU: Intel Core i9-11900K 3.5 GHz 8-Core Processor

MOBO: MSI Z590-A PRO ATX LGA1200 Motherboard

GPU: MSI GAMING X TRIO GeForce RTX 4080 16 GB Video Card

 

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory

RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory

SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive

SSD: Western Digital Black SN770 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive

HDD: Seagate IronWolf Pro NAS 8 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive

 

The game is downloaded on the WD SSD if that makes a difference.

The only fix would be a newer and stronger CPU if you're on 1440p or 4K.

If you're on 1080p, an upgrade to a higher resolution would smooth out the frames a bit.

That might be a fix. I did have a look at the task manager and CPU usage does skyrocket at times.. Although, i thought it was normal

It's not the CPU usage jumping (that is calculated as the average of all the cores including hyperthreading), it's the GPU usage dropping.

Low GPU usage ~= CPU bottleneck.

Cap the frame rate to a lower number, like 90 maybe, to avoid bouncing off the CPU ceiling.

 

There's really no reason to run single-player games uncapped.

Only way to eliminate 1 percent lows stutter like that for gaming is to disable all start up programs

 

go ms config and disable all services apart from windows services

 

Disable core parking ( bitsum power plan does this) 

 

run absolutely nothing but the game on the pc

 

remove all overclocks apart from xmp 

 

run a debloat for windows 

 

basicaly eliminate anything and everything that’s running that isn’t the game, so no Corsair icue no discord no web browsers open ect 

 

I played this on a 8700k and the lowers were 10ish percent lower than the average

Sounds like you need a new computer. I know this is difficult to hear, but you need to get rid of it. Fortunately for you I specialize in scamming people ethically disposing of terrible and slow computers like this one. I'm feeling extra generous, I have a $15 Chick-Fil-A gift card that I'll send, should help you cover the shipping cost.

 

In all serious this probably is basically just your computer being "too fast" for its own good, as others have pointed out you're probably hitting the "CPU ceiling" as your GPU suddenly is deciding to randomly become extremely overpowered for this game. As others have pointed out, making things easier on the CPU or harder on the GPU should narrow the gap between them and smooth things out.
