Hey.

 

I upgraded my 770 for a 970 under a week ago. Since then I have experienced minor stuttering, longer load times, and sometimes a few seconds freeze in some games.

Anyone know what could cause such a problem?

Cpu? Could be bottleneck.

Did not have the same issues before I upgraded, so I doubt it.

yeah but the 960 is essentially a rebrand of the 770

What's your CPU?

You might want to do a reinstall Windows.

I don't like 2D games...I just couldn't get into them.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

What? The 960 is based on Maxwell 2.0, and the 770 is based on Kepler, two very different architectures.

Similar performance doesn't make it rebrand, a rebrand is taking something, changing nothing about it, and then selling it under a new name.

Can we please get back to my problem :)

I dont even have a 960. I upgraded from a 770 to a 970.

Since then I've experienced slight stuttering, longer load times and short freezes in games.

 

I got a i5-4670k

Asus 970

16GB DDR3

Got an SSD for windows and some games, and a normal HDD for mass storage.

Running a 750W PSU

probably did but, did you install the latest drivers from nvidia for the gtx 970? did you overclock?

Have you tried a Clean Installation of the drivers?

 

There is an option to completely remove the old drivers before the new ones install, this could help eliminate any possibility of any thing being leftover causing the issue.

Try use DDU to reinstall the graphic driver. Maybe older shader cache is still there.

Then maybe you should not use the word "rebrand"

+1 because AMD rebrand 970 to 390.
