Record a video from your phone of the stutters you're seeing. That might give us an idea the kind of stutter it is whether it's monitor syncing issue or a stutter caused by something deeper.

Micro stuttering, a loose term, can mean different things for different people. On one hand, if frames aren't in sync with monitor, can give a jitter effect, like missing pages in a picture flip book, happens more frequently if frames are consistently too high above refresh rate. The other kind of micro stutter is slight pauses or mini halts/hangs, well these are more to do with in and out operations being affected by, some common reasons be, rapid frequency fluctuations due to thermals, memory system, storage drives, software/drivers/firmware and specific game and it's own engine and level of optimisation.

A recording might give us more of an idea. Recording needs to be external to allow us see what you see. Recording internally via software will change the outcome if it's syncing related since the monitor is bypassed.

What monitor is it btw, and is Gsync capable?

Alright, doesn't sound like monitor syncing issue then. More rather game's engine, user input keyboard/mouse, background activity etc.

Run 3DMark Time Spy and Fire Strike, free on Steam, and see if any stutters happen there.

If no stutters happen there try look for game specific tweaks.

List all games that stutter.

I don't think anybody would ever think they were alone with such an issue since micro-stuttering has been the bane of gamers for years and years, and I also do not believe that it is likely to be Windows 10 related since these kinds of problems have been around for ages and occur on Windows 11 as well.

Whatever you say, by the way I think it was NVIDIA DLSS for me that was causing those weird jitters.

The point of running 3Dmark was to narrow down a hardware issue because i know the benchmarks are optimised well. Besides optimisation, there's no user input and everything is already loaded into cache so no asset streaming. So, as far as that goes, cpu, ram and gpu should perform as expected, no obvious stutters indicating there's something wrong there which i expected. So it comes down to settings, which you may have found, and may extend to storage concerning streaming assets and pagefile related stutters.

Destiny two is mostly an online experience right ?, I mean you need to have an internet connection all the time. Could be the issue here, right?

Thats why I asked for a list of games, to know if you (OP) have played any single player campaing game that does not require an internet connection to work.
