Insane Stuttering in all Games

[Flowey]

So yeah, up until a week ago everything was fine, games were running great... Up until I finished Mass Effect 3. 

 

ALL MY GAMES ARE UNPLAYABLE

 

And I mean, literally unplayable. The stuttering man, I don't get it. It's not the Xbox app for sure, and I don't think it's windows 10, checking my temps everything is fine, and my loads are never over 60% so it's not some kind of bottleneck or shit. I've still got great FPS, like, minimum 144, but god damn the stuttering makes any games unplayable.

 

Anybody has had similar experiences? It's only with games, otherwise chrome and internet services are fine. Any suggestions?

 

Specs : R9 390 Saphire Nitro, Intel I5-6600k, Asus Z-170A Board, couple of noctua fans, EVGA Supernova Gold 750W, 2 1TB HDD, one empty the other full of games, 1 Samsung 850 SSD for OS and CSGO. Hum that's it,

 

Thks!

DDU in safe mode and reinstall latest drivers fresh new?

 

[Billy_Mays]

Did you update or install the drivers?

[Ryujin2003]

Are your games legit or torrented?

[Notional]

Did you choose the option where all organics fuze with synthetics? Because that means you are part of your computer, so maybe you are slowing it down?

 

Kidding aside. Sounds like either your graphics drivers got corrupted by something, or maybe directx derped. Generally, try to reinstall your drivers (clean install) or use DDU (I never do).

I'll definitely give it a try, and I'm pretty sure the latest update I've done was a Windows Security type update thing. I definitely disabled the Xbox app functionality afterwards though.

 

Yes, all my games are legit, never hacked or torrented crap cause, I'm a gud boy like that . So yeah, all legit unless Steam shared libraries have a problem with that.

 

Nope, the ending I got was so funny, didn't even know it existed. You've got the whole 3 choices before you, but you walk so slow, so I'm like "Hey, I've got a gun, if I need to walk around the whole area to pick destroy, might as well shot the fucking kid cause, god, he's annoying" So I proceed, shoot the kid, BOOM, " As you wish", 4th ending, Reapers rape the galaxy. I was like " WUT". Definitly wasn't in the original game for sure, but managed to surprise me. 

 

To confirm, DDU, that's the software that removes graphics drivers for AMD/Nvidia cards to let you reinstall, right?

 

Anyways, thx!

When I had a similar problem it was a problem with AMD ReLive. Do you have it on? If so try turning it off.

what's your ram? maybe it's some extremely slow lpddr3. Also, you can test games more accurately with fraps and tell us 1% and .1% lows. It will be more accurately show stuttering than "insane stuttering". Also check for any background apps running, maybe somethings loads your cpu/gpu, or your batteries in mouse are dying)

I knew I was missing some spec! I've got 16gb 2666mhz Ripjaws Ram and A wired Logitech G502 mouse and a wired Corsair Strafe keyboard.

 

And by insane stuttering, I mean both CPU and GPU loads don't go over 15% in some games, and yet every 2-3 seconds you get up to a second of just, frozen gameplay, then the game resumes and if you don't let go of the control your character kept moving while the monitor was displaying a single frame, so in games like Dark Souls you can understand it makes the game unplayable. Though, the music does not stutter, so I'm kinda going for the software issue vs hardware issue TBH.

 

And what is AMD ReLive, never heard of it.

 

I'll get back a  report once I'm done working and tried a few things.

that can be damaged hard drive, but most likely it's just driver issue. Just download latest amd graphics driver (driver itself, not tool that automatically downloads it, you'll have to choose gpu model on amd site) and choose "clean install". Pc will reboot to safe mode to completely uninstall driver and then reinstall it, this might help. And relive is amd's tool to record and stream games with almost zero performance loss, similar to NVidia's shadowplay.

I had similar issues a few months back for me it was my hard drive or Windows 10 rather. Try alt tabbing to task manager when the stuttering happens and check the hard drive usage if its more than 90% then that's it. I had to disable Microsoft Telemetry and a few more Microsoft related things which I can't remember off the top of my head. You can also try closing other apps that take up a lot of the drive but that might not make a noticeable difference. There's also a possibility of hardware failure (which is unlikely but still its worth looking into) Is your pc booting normally or is it slow too?

AMD ReLive is AMD's Shadowplay. There is a tab in the AMD Software program, that is called Relive. Try turning all the functions off.

Nah, PC is good, reboot is done in like 20 seconds top, ain't got an SSD for nothing. I'm scared, but if it is the HDD fucking around... Well, let's check CSGO, that's the only game on my SSD. If it doesn't stutter we've got ourselves an answer.

 

Yeah just downloaded and clean installed the most recent drivers, still stuttering my ass off.

It's not the HDD tkhx god, CSG, which is installed on my SSD, is stuttering as well.

Try reinstalling drivers.  If that doesn't work, I'd reinstall Windows if I were in your shoes.
