Hello to all who take the time to read this! Thank you in advance
I have been encountering stuttering/screen tearing for some time. I have attempted countless fixes for it both before switching to windows 10 and after. Reformatting and wiping my system clean did not fix the issue during the transition. Its incredibly rhythmic, Every 5ish seconds my screen tears and I rubber band. I could issue a command, See/hear it and not have actually used the ability, Such as ana's grenade trying to self heal in over watch. Blink with tracer and then be pulled back at the end of it to my "actual in game location". It used to present itself in the form of Audio Crackles and sound pops when it lagged. Now with some diligent DPC tweaking it seems to mainly be the visual ques.
I've attempted
1. Replacing pretty much every driver in device manager. Making sure to uninstall them prior using manual methods and DDU Cleaner.
2.Changing power settings to High performance
3.Changing bio's power settings I.E Cool and quiet, c6, C1e, Amp.
4.Flashing bios and unseating CMos, then reinstalling again.
5. Disabling audio/network devices after uninstalling/reinstalling the drivers for them.
6. Installing a new Asus 4X4 ac3100 network card
7. Running CCleaner, Antivirus/malware scans (both 3rd party and only windows after uninstalling them)
8. Disabling pretty much every USB Root Hub.
9. Dusting out the inside
10. Re seating every piece of hardware and re applying thermal paste to my CPU.
11. Observing temps to see if anythings too hot (doesn't appear to be but I am kinda new to it)
12. Beating my head against my desk repetitively.
13. Searching the internet extensively.
14. Removing all bu 1 ram stick and switching them around.
15. Defragmenting my HDD
16. running Mem Diag
17 Troubleshooting with Latency mon (got my levels down significantly)
I fear that my motherboard may be bad at this point. Especially given that they removed the comparability listing with my 8 core processor a year after the mobo's release. https://hardforum.com/threads/asrock-removes-supported-cpus-years-after-release.1800623/
My system.
Windows 10 Home
Amd FM-8320, 3.5MHz, 8 core
Asrock 970 extreme3 Mobo
Nvidia 1060 Gigabyte Geforce GTX, 1060, 6gb, PSU
32 gigs 4X8 DDR3-2400 Gskill ripjaws
Asus 4X4 Ac3100 Wireless PCi-E
OSZ trion100, 256GB, SSD
WDC 1TB black HDD
675W ToughpowerXT Power supply.
I've been trying to resolve these issues focusing on DPC Latency as of late for entirely too long and am desperate for some help. I seem to have gotten my levels there down significantly but my consistent stuttering is BLATANTLY apparent. I have OBS videos of me in the Overwatch training grounds/in game, I am not sure what method is best to share them if you think it will help. Thank you in advance!
