Hi I recently put up a post about me getting low fps in games, I fixed that by reinstalling my gpu drivers 3 times. I thought is was fixed but then i found it isn't. If I want good fps and no stuttering in games I need to reinstall the drivers each time i leave the pc off for a while, If i leave it off overnight then the drivers need to be reinstalled. Please help because this is really annoying. I have a temporary solution, I sleep it instead of shutting down. I tried using a program to wipe all driver data completely but there was no change

Oh my. It's been years since I've last been rick rolled. Well played sir, well played.

 

To OP: Try DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and a clean installation afterwards. If that doesn't work, try reverting to an older version that you knew was stable. Other than that, you have to give us more info to help you, like your GPU model for instance.

I had this problem with my laptop, it fixed itself after installing some older drivers. As to how old, I am not sure since I had some other people help me with this issue on this site.

I Have a 240mm closed loop water cooler for the cpu so I don't think so

it's not the cooler, listen up.. does you processor reach 100% load during gaming, that might cause your stuttering because the processor is not able to keep up with the gpu peformance

okay so your processor is almost maxed out and spikes may hit your cpu to 100% wich may cause your game to stutter, my suggestion upgrade the cpu!

8350 won't really be any more different from FX-6300. All it does, is give you more threads.

It doesn't help on DX9/DX11 titles.

 

What you need, is stronger new cpu like i5 4690k/6600k.

I wouldn't. What GPU do you have? I had an FX-6350 with a GTX 970 and experienced 0 lag spikes whilst playing BF4 at high 1080p.

Yeah, it would. But it is the only way to properly improve your fps.

You would get the same effect by simply overclocking the FX-6300 to same clockspeeds as FX-8350. Which is 4.2Ghz. Oh wait...you are already running it at 4.3Ghz. So it is currently performing the same or a bit better than stock FX-8350.

Only difference you would see, is in highly multi-threaded workloads. But not in DX9/11 gaming.

Won't help, but frankly I don't think your problem is the cpu. The symptoms do not indicate that, and if it was the cpu then you wouldn't be reaching 100 fps under any cirumstance. What I suggest is to log gpu and cpu usage throughout the game and check if there are any suspicious dips when it starts stuttering.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

sudo chmod -R 000 /*

So, I used http://www.geforce.com/drivers and entered all the details and such. Then installed a driver from last year and still using it now since I'm afraid it will break or something.

 

Use a gpu driver swipe thingy (there's plenty online) to uninstall current drivers and install the older driver by just double clicking.

 

Not guaranteed but it worked for me on my laptop with 860m.
