On a side note i have a 144hrz monitor because other wise anything near 60 fps which should look fluid, looks terrible.

I would first do a control alt delete and look at the process while the game is running. See if any programs are taking up performance. Try to determine what they are. If I cant then run antivirus and malwarebytes for adware.

Does this happen on most games? I am experiencing terrible stutter, but only in H1z1

one hundred percent have fully formatted and ran malware bytes and its clean, I'm lost as to why, plus processes are not bad at all

If you have any custom game setting in catalyst you could try removing them.

If it's only H1Z1, I'd blame Daybreak's new(ish) anti-cheat program. It's been killing performance for some people in Planetside 2 as well.

Don't try to disable the anti-cheat with the game running while you're troubleshooting. It might get you instabanned.

Also, your CPU temps don't look too good either. Are you running the stock intel cooler right on top of the third hottest graphics card in the history of graphics cards?

I do not have any custom settings

h1z1 is my main game but it happens on literally all games, some worse than others

cpu temps are good, that was just an odd time, now its at 25 degrees Celsius while gaming
and yeah this graphics card is hot asf, but sadly it is on almost all games.

That's a 4790k sitting at 25C while running H1Z1? I think something is wrong. Temps that low should never happen with a devil's canyon at full load, even on an AIO, unless the radiator is sitting in a bucket of ice water.

I wonder if your graphics card isn't overheating. That wouldn't be rare with an air cooled 390x.

Stuttering while streaming is pretty normal if you're asking too much from your machine. H.264 is not CPU-friendly by any means. If you're background recording while gaming, I wouldn't be surprised if there's minor stuttering. H1Z1 is pretty CPU heavy, and streaming with an h.264 codec is also pretty CPU heavy, resulting in stuttering gameplay and stuttering recording. Is Raptr or something else also trying to background record while you're attempting to game/stream? Also, are you attempting to stream/record off the same hard drive your game is loading off of? Your rig, on paper, should be able to stream/record while gaming reasonably well, unless you're trying to record at 120fps at 1440p with 360kbps audio quality.
