Suddenly getting random stutters in all games

[Rustys]

It started before updating drivers, i updated them in the hopes of resolving the issue

from where and how?

 

[Bastet]

Check under nVidia’s control panel to see if the games are using the inbuilt graphics or nVidia’s graphics. If inbuilt (or is set to let Windows choose) then change the game to use nVidia & see if that improves the problem.

If you only have nVidia & have clean uninstalled the driver using DDU & installed the latest nVidia driver then I’m out of options.

from where and how?

MB drivers from AMD directly and using DDU to clean install nvidia's driver

If you only have nVidia & have clean uninstalled the driver using DDU & installed the latest nVidia driver then I’m out of options.

I sure have Appreciate the help though!

To add to what is also stated on the other thread that you are posting on.

Attempt each individually.

Turn off XMP and set the RAM to normal.

Try setting the power scheme to High.

See if clean boot reveals anything.

What is on you D: drive basically what is it used for?
If disconnected does the system improve.

If the drive is failing and the system is having issue reading and writing to it could be causing a domino theory?

Do you happen to know what the temps are?

Attempted each individually and collectively just then, unfortunately didn't seem to make a difference

D: drive is majority used for games that are less demanding or larger in size, as well as some videos etc
C: is used for programs, windows and games i play more often.

I do not know D: temps if that is what you are referring to, i will gladly run MSI Afterburner tonight and let you know the results.
(GPU is usually around the 65 degree mark, CPU sometimes spikes up in the high 70's)

Does this happen only when streaming the games or even just playing them?

Showing a few issues with OBS Studios.

Need to see what is eating RAM and what happens when you disable XMP
Physical Memory
Memory Usage: 58 %
Total Physical: 16 GB
Available Physical: 6.62 GB

May want to look at updating the RAM to 32 GB especially if you are streaming.

Apologies for the late reply, long weekend

I do know about these OBS issues, i believe it is because i run a macro for a specific game which causes OBS to crash sometimes, i am experiencing the issues outside of using OBS as well

I honestly see nothing eating ram in task manager apart from the games i run/chrome etc howver i ensure i always close most things when gaming just incase

I have thought about upgrading previously, wonder if that would fix my issue. 16GB never seemed to be an issue before

 

[Rustys]

There have been a lot of streamers that are having issues with the newer release of OBS and some that have had to rebuild their configs ground up.

i am experiencing the issues outside of using OBS as well

Online or No?

May try turning of Motion Blur, V-Sync, and lowering some of the options to see if that clears it up.

With the newer demands on games and software and when you combine streaming and recording 32 GB min.

I usually always turn off these settings anyway as it's not too visually pleasing just tried fiddling with them but no luck

Yeah i've thought about upgrading to 32 for a while but i've never had any performance issues while streaming or anything so haven't had a real reason to upgrade if that makes sense. It could definitely be worth it though, but if i run OBS without using my macro there's no crashing issues at all

 

[Rustys]

So, the games run smooth with the macro not running?

If that is the fact, then you might look at rebuilding the macro or find alternatives or eliminate things and add one at a time see which is causing the issue that way.

@Jai Gow - any update?

Sorry i might've worded that poorly, OBS doesn't crash when the macro is not running but games are stuttering regardless of obs/macro on/off

 

[Rustys]

What speed are you getting with ISP?

Durning different times of the day and night monitor for usually 48 hours.

What is Ping to the router and modem and game server.

Like we stated could be low ram or there is a configuration some place.

Did you ever disable XMP?

Need to see what is eating RAM and what happens when you disable XMP

Could try resetting the network settings.

Cleaned the dust out of the system.

Run a check disk on D drive
What were the results.

If D drive is disconnected how does the system run?

Worse case preform a clean install of everything.

 

[Bruce]

@Jai Gow - still need help?
