Will GSYNC solve my stutter problem?

[Gezzenegger]

I recently built a new workstation, - 

 

 

• Corsair Obsidian Series 900D Super Tower Case, 
• ASUS Z10PE-D8 WS Intel LGA2011-3 EEB WorkStation Motherboard.
• Cooler Master Vanguard 1200W 80+ Platinum Modular Power Supply.
• Samsung 850 EVO 500GB 2.5" SATA III SSD MZ-75E500 (3 of them)
• Kingston 8GB (1x 8GB) 2133MHz ECC Registered DDR4 Server Memory.
• Noctua NH-U9DX i4 CPU Cooler.
• EVGA GTX Titan X 12 Superclocked. 
• Intel Xeon E5-2640v3 LGA 2011-3 2.6GHz (Turbo 3.4GHz) Processor x 2

 

I play a lot of games and have been getting awful stuttering with vysnc enabled in League of Legends. When its off it tears like crazy; I have two monitors both at 60Hz (a BENQ Senseye 3 LED and an old ASUS ) - if I pick up a GYSNC monitor and have VSYNC off will the tearing go and what would you recommend I go with, I get a bazillion frames in League with VYSNC off. Also on a side not - this is my first time with a workstation and I'm trying to work out if I'm getting optimal performance from my CPUs - I know server boards come with a ton of power saving features and was wondering if anyone knew if these boards keep CPUs running on some type of power saving mode and how you would disable that in BIOS.

 

Thanks for your time

What PSU do you have?

Yep. I've started noticing it in GTA 5. With Vsync on it's perfectly smooth but it's locked at 60 fps. Once I turn V-sync off, I get 140 fps but it jumps up and down making it tear and stutter. G-sync seems to be the way but I'm broke, so it'll be a while for me.

I'm hoping G-SYNC will fix it - I didn't notice any stutter in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Just seems to be League of Legends related.

If you stutter with V-sync on then G-sync won't fix anything as since you're obivously getting 60fps G-sync will function like normal V-sync

Damn - thought GSYNC was my answer - I've tried so many things to get the stutter to go - any ideas?

Use the frame limiting option in LoL - games like LoL and CS:GO have terribly broken V-sync incorporated in them.

those dual socket cpu's could be the cause..

is it possible to run the board with 1 cpu?  and test it?

I do - limited it to 60fps - still stutters - if I limit it and disable vsync it seems to be ok but I get awful screen tearing - thought GYNSC would fix that?

I have no idea - first time I've ventured into a workstation computer - was hoping someone might have experience with dual xeons and gaming

id update the bios first..then check the bios settings for possible causes

 

stuttering is usually a cause of bad ram or bad gpu...sometimes hdd/ssd/psu

Alright - will update BIOS - the stuttering seems to only occur in League of Legends.

if its only that one game

then its probably just the game is coded badly for your partitcular hardware

 

this might sound stupid..but try running the game in windows xp compatiblity mode

[techguru]

also update the firmware on your ssd's
