AMD Processor Stutter

[jakester9000]

Recently My CPU [ AMD A-10 4600m Quad-Core ] has been acting up.

The link shows the image of my CPU's performance while in-game ( it happens on all games ).
It does this while running Battlefield 3 ( runs LOW with 35-40 FPS then dipping to 10-15) all the way to Call of Duty: World at War (High with 60fps then dipping to the 20's )
The FPS drops from the higher framerate to the lower framerate in about a quarter of a second ( 0.25 seconds ) it then stays there for about 20 ish seconds and then jumps back to maximun framerate depending on the game.


Other Specs:
LAPTOP: Yes ( HP ENVY M6 )
CPU: AMD APU A10 4600m QUAD @2.3GHz
GPU: ATI AMD 7660g [ Intergrated Graphics ]
RAM: 6GB DDR3

That's pretty good performance for a laptop APU. If you want desktop performance, build a desktop.

Try to put the power plan to "High Performance". It will maintain the processor state (frequency) at 100% all the time. By default the power plan is set to "Balanced" and that sets the CPU's state to vary from 5% to 100%. Maybe it'll resolve your problem.

I changed it to High Performance but its still happening

6GB RAM?

For an APU, bandwidth is paramount. If there is odd RAM you might be running single channel, which would really hurt that APU.

Run CPU-Z and show us a picture of the memory tab.

Ok well you are dual channel. Looks like you just need to turn down the detail settings. Start with AA/AF.

Ive tried turning down the detail but it doesnt help at all 🙁

Try lowering resolution.
