So I've noticed I get a little stutter almost every time I kill an enemy. It's very noticeable, and RTSS picks it up easily on its frametime graph. I've looked at a couple vids on YT with players running the frametime graph while gaming and they don't seem to be getting the little stutter like I am.

Anyone notice the same, or any tips?

- I've done a complete re-install of the game
- Re-install nvidia drivers
- Cleared the nVidia cache from "Localappdata"
- Cleared the DX cache from C drive

Only runnig the game atm in vanilla - no mods.

This was happening before the latest 2.11 patch.

Used DDU to do complete uninstall of said drivers.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Re-install nvidia drivers
Can you elaborate on this? Did you use DDU? Manually reinstalling with the latest GPU driver sourced from Nvidia's support site?
