Witcher 3 Patch 1.31 Stuttering Issue

[Lethath67]

Hello,

I have been trying to fix this issue for 2 days.

I re-installed Witcher 3 thru GOG, but play it without GOG using witcher3.exe.

I've never had this issue in the past until I reinstalled it a few days ago to play it again.

As I am moving there is a Micro Stutter all over. Not smooth as before but kinda "jumpy"/ "skipping".

I have tried all the recommended solutions on the internet, every different setting in my Options and from recommendations on Youtube ect but have found NO solution.

What the hell is going on? I know my System can handle the game on Ultra so why all of a sudden is there stuttering in game?

Specs:
i5 6600K @4.3Ghz
16 Gigs RAM
Windows 7
GTX 980ti Nvidia GeForce
1440p

Thanks for the help.

PS. All those guides/recommendations did NOT fix the issue. I need a 100% confirmed fix for patch 1.31

Here is an example;

Watched your vid. I had the same stuttering on other games before. The reason for me was that a program was running in the background and caused my CPU too high.

I used MSI Afterburner and saw that everytime the stuttering came, cpu went up to 99%.
Didnt know which program, so I started to check programs in task manager. 1 at a time. rightclicked and look at location for the program. If it was in Windows folder, I let it be. But was in another folder that had nothing to do with name. I stopped it for running
Found the program, uninstalled it. after that all games was smooth.

It turned out I had gotten a malware program on my pc 1 month or so before the stuttering started. Dont know why it was dormant for so long. I am not an cpmputer expert...

And remember to check for viruses and malware once in a while.


Use MSI Afterburner and see what are affected while running TW3.

I ran the MSI Afterburner, temps were fine, scanned my system and found nothing. Game is still stuttering.

Does your CPU hit 99% usage during the stuttering?
