Hi, I recently purchased my new gaming pc, specs are a i5 7400 8gb ddr4 with a 1070. I then added a ssd and installed os and a few games on there.

 

I still get stuttering on pubg even on low settings?

 

can anyone help as to why I get stutters. I have even tweaked windows etc etc.

 

Regards

Welcome to the LTT forum!

 

There's a lot of possibilities here. Are you on a Z170/Z270 motherboard, and if so, have you overclocked the memory?

 

Are you on the latest graphics card drivers?

 

Are you on the latest BIOS?

 

Is it only PUBG that you get stuttering in?

 

It could be something else entirely, but the solution is probably tied to one of these questions.

Hi it was a pre built from where I work, its was on sale for £400 from £1000. so its not a overclockable board. Bios - do you know of any software that can do it from windows for msi boards. because I've searched the motherboard and get no where. I've downloaded the latest nvidia drivers which was released last week sometime

1. PUBG loves memory performance, regardless of Intel or AMD CPUs. If that's single stick of DDR4, it will be stuttering all the time

 

2. PUBG is badly optimized from the start, so it might not like low frequency CPUs like the 7400 very much.

 

3. You've got background tasks lugging around.

Wow, that's actually a pretty good deal! Good to hear that you are on the latest drivers, so that probably is not the issue.

 

Has it always been like this? If not, when did it start?

 

Let's not worry about the version, let's worry about the board. If you can find what the board is, you can probably find the place to update the BIOS.

 

And as @Jurrunio said, is it single stick of memory? Some games struggle with only one stick, and PUBG is no exception.
