Addressing severe stutters during Fortnite gameplay
Addressing severe stutters during Fortnite gameplay
Hello, I'm experiencing some issues lately. It's unclear if the problem is related to the game or my hardware. I notice significant stuttering during Fortnite battle royals, especially at the start of the game and after landing. It doesn't seem like a bottleneck issue since I have a GTX 1080 and R5 2600x running the game in low/competitive settings with a FPS cap at 144 due to my 1444hz monitor, and both my CPU and GPU are consistently at 100% usage.
I faced a comparable issue and think my approach could resolve many similar challenges. I explored various solutions to eliminate stutter, even modifying my PC components and creating a new one! Last night I experimented with the RAM settings—stutters appeared but changed frequency or location depending on adjustments to VCC and VCCSA. It turned out the voltage levels were the issue. My RAM performed flawlessly in tests, yet still stuttered during games due to insufficient power supply. I increased VCCSA to 1.31V and VCC to 1.25V for a 4000MHz configuration, which resolved the problem completely. No more stutters. Depending on your CPU's silicon quality...

For your 10700K model, consider adjusting to 1.3V/1.25V SA/IO if you're using 3200MHz or higher; proceed from there. Best of luck.
