Choppy framerate at 60fps?

[Jm15]

Hi, so I recently got a new gaming rig. It's not the best but it should perform well. I've been having a problem where it seems like the game is choppy when my character is moving (the background is kind of "vibrating"). Now it says my FPS is at 57-60 at all times. It's playable but annoying and I'd really like it solved.

My monitor does support 60 htz and I'm using a DVI. Sorry about my english and if you can help me please do.

I haven't overclocked mine.

Yes, more noticable World of Warcraft

 

[neon neophyte]

no, but it could still be ram related.

All the games I play (world of warcraft, fallout 3, sims 3, guild wars 2). I've tried high settings and low settings same result.

My system specs are
Processor: AMD FX(tm)-4100 Quad-Core Processor

Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series

Total RAM: 8.0 GB

 

[Jm15]

no, but it could still be ram related.

I'm not so good with computers, but what would make it be my ram?

What are your full system specs? Do you have the latest drivers, Windows updates, etc?

I ran a software and it told me all my drivers are updated.

>ran software
what software? most of them are viruses...

Anyways, its called microstutter. Run a fraps test and check the time between frames. some will take longer then others, anything over 40ms is persevable as stutter

I tried Device Doctor. I always research before I download something, people said it was safe and device doctor said the important things were updated.

hmm, I think it might be microstutter. I'm getting something like this person is in this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMPFfjupeq8) except not that extreme. It's noticeable but not that extreme.

how many MS is the monitor?

Is there a way to check? I'm guessing 2ms or 5ms?

Tom just did an piece on this in the game cpu article. It sounds like Frame latency. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-processor-frame-rate-performance,3427-2.html

I'll take time to read it when I'm free. Is there a solution to fix frame latency/microstuttering?

Btw, are there softwares i could download to fix my problem? Ive been researching all day. Found a few people saying they tried a software to remove the stutter

What about your mouse?

 

[iam2thecrowe]

download the new 13.3 BETA driver. they have improved frame latency with that driver.

 

[masterman467]

check the % of GPU load. if its maxed thats why.
also, try to drop your settings way down to see if that helps at all. if it does its a GPU issue, if not its a CPU issue.
