Hi, i have got news to report; in witcher 3 i removed all the fps caps from rivatuner and set the max frames from 144 to unlimited in the game settings, for the little time i played (about 5 to 10min) i didn´t notice any stutters or frametime spikes, both in taau preset, and xesss preset. gpu was always around 99% usage. Also,gpu temp were around the 50s while hot spot temp was around 75º C. fans were up crazy though. Do you think i should have my fans that fast and have lower temps,or is this tradeoff not worth it?Let us know how it goes.
hi, sorry to bother you. Do you have any thoughts on my previous post?Let us know how it goes.
This sounds better, and is what I'd expect. GPU and hotspot temps are perfectly fine. If the hotspot was very high like 105c or something, it might account for the issues. But it's not.Hi, i have got news to report; in witcher 3 i removed all the fps caps from rivatuner and set the max frames from 144 to unlimited in the game settings, for the little time i played (about 5 to 10min) i didn´t notice any stutters or frametime spikes, both in taau preset, and xesss preset. gpu was always around 99% usage.

I doubt the UE4 engine could be causing it, but stranger things have happened. We'll keep that open for now.By the way the other games i play (jump force\one piece pirate warriors 4) are all hard locked at 60 fps, and those are the games i play the most, so i notice the stutters more. Could it be that the stutters come from being ue4 games? i read those are poorly optimized, even though i have more than enough power to run them. Any thoughts?
Perhaps. Are you using the dongle for windows, or bluetooth?oh and lastly, could the stutters be from playing with a wireless xbox controller? ( i also played w3 with mouse and keyboard instead of the controller)
i am using a bluetooth dongle. for the xbox controller. the dongle came with my previous xbox one wireless controller, now i have an xbox series x controller.This sounds better, and is what I'd expect.

I'm pretty sure the dongle is a fast wireless one for windows. Not bluetooth. If you're connected in BT mode, then maybe see if there's an option to switch to wireless and test again.i am using a bluetooth dongle. for the xbox controller. the dongle came with my previous xbox one wireless controller, now i have an xbox series x controller.
You are right!! Sorry about the confusion, it's not connected with by bt, instead it's wireless.I'm pretty sure the dongle is a fast wireless one for windows. Not bluetooth. If you're connected in BT mode, then maybe see if there's an option to switch to wireless and test again.
No change?You are right!! Sorry about the confusion, it's not connected with by bt, instead it's wireless.
No, still haven't. I was testing if the overlays and fps caps were the issue, so haven´t gotten to update either the mobo bios, gpu drivers and chipset driversNo change?
So, just to be clear, you've updated the GPU drivers? Yes?
Ah, okay. This is essential before we go any further.No, still haven't. I was testing if the overlays and fps caps were the issue, so haven´t gotten to update either the mobo bios, gpu drivers and chipset drivers
should i be aware of the order i install them?Ah, okay. This is essential before we go any further.
Let us know when you get everything updated. GPU/Mobo bios/System drivers including chipset. This may fix the issue.
No, just make sure the most recent version of each.should i be aware of the order i install them?
hi, just cheking in: i had updated the bios once before to this version now:No, just make sure the most recent version of each.
If you haven't done the bios update before, then let us know which bios you currently have (you can use CPU-z to determine this). And then we can advise on what to do for the bios.
