Amd ryzen microstutter
What concerns you about the first image seems to be its apparent stability.
The frame dips remain present, though less severe now. Observed that whenever the frame dips occur, the time span jumps significantly. As mentioned earlier, when I return home I’ll reset the clock and timer back to 1800, just like in the second photo.
I constructed a 5800x last month and after reviewing your advice I installed Assassin's Creed Valhalla. There’s no micro stutter or drops at all. Performance matches exactly with my i9 setup. Ryzen Master is set to default, and only XMP is active in the BIOS. I’m using just 3200 RAM since it was sitting unused. I believe the problem lies in your build components rather than the CPU. All micro stutter issues stem from motherboards not supporting certain graphics cards. Having multiple computers makes it simple for me to replace parts and troubleshoot. Any drops I experienced were due to HD cache; switching to non-HD systems has eliminated them.
The most intriguing part of the first image is the extremely regular frame drops occurring at nearly the same time. It's interesting that it works with v-sync enabled, whereas the second one doesn't. Have you experimented without the 60 FPS cap? It's possible a tool from nVidia settings is conflicting with the game configurations, or there might be an issue with g-sync.
I also tested with and without the frame cap and the results were similar. / v-sync on, off, adaptive... nothing changed the issue of severe frame dips. I returned home today and resumed testing. Xmp and fclock at half were okay but still experienced stuttering with the 5800x. I uninstalled Ryzen Master again. I tried to install the AMD chipset drivers, but failed. I put the old CPU back in. RAM set to 3200 MHz (the motherboard wouldn't confirm higher speeds) and 1600 fclock worked fine without problems. I reinstalled the AMD chipset drivers and it functioned smoothly after about 30 minutes of gameplay. I’m still puzzled—after checking everything online and doing a fresh install, no Ryzen Master or power plan settings helped improve performance.
It's usually a good idea to start with a fresh Windows setup plus the newest BIOS after installing a new CPU. Also, could you tell me what BIOS version you're currently using? There have been five updates so far this year, and I haven't encountered any issues with Ryzen Master on my 3000 or 5000 series boards.
3606 according to system info is the bios version. I've been testing various solutions and believe I might have identified the issue. Checked amd forums and found a discussion about stuttering with corsair Vengeance RAM at 3600 MHz. It's unclear if it matches the same setup or differs from other details. I recalled that the 3700X didn't handle that high speed well, so I manually adjusted it to 3200 MHz for booting. After changing it to 3200 with the 5800X, the problem seems resolved. I'm unsure why this works but it seems to fix it. During a work break, I checked the QVL for memory on my board and confirmed the kit is listed at 3600 MHz. It might just not be compatible with that RAM. After several attempts over the past couple of weeks, seeing it function properly now makes me suspect the RAM itself is the problem, not the CPU.
I've noticed some users experience problems with LPX RAM when working with AMD. It seems to happen more often when trying to bypass XMP settings and perform overclocking.
You're experiencing discomfort from the Vengeance Pro RGB kit due to its large storage size.
