Game begins to lag after roughly 40 minutes of playtime.
Occurs with every game. I’m aware Arkham Knight has a poor port, but I thought my GPU might help avoid issues. The game runs smoothly at full settings. After roughly 40 minutes, it starts stuttering and lagging, making it frustrating to play. I checked temperatures and they stayed near 69 degrees. Once this happens, I switch to another title like Assassin’s Creed Syndicate or GTA V, and it becomes unplayable right away. I’m guessing the problem is related to system performance. I don’t know if I missed any settings.
Thanks for the replies, ill give it a go and report back. Also, if you don't mind me asking, in my BIOS it has an option to enable xmp profile. Should i use this. Also, to remove an overclock, do i simply restore the settings in bios to its defaults. Thanks
I checked all the suggestions you mentioned, but unfortunately nothing resolved the issue. I ended up playing longer on my TV than on my monitor. My old HD monitor uses a DVI connection, which shouldn’t cause any problems. I also noticed the audio became unstable—sounds would cut off and restart every few seconds. Temperatures stayed around 68-72 degrees, with a peak of about 72. It seems I’ll need more assistance. Any other ideas you have? This is really frustrating. I was expecting a smoother setup.
To detect a memory leak, open Task Manager and examine the Processes tab. Look for any process that remains active with high memory usage over time, especially if it started recently. Check the Resource tab for unusual spikes in memory consumption. If nothing stands out, consider running a memory profiler or monitoring tools for deeper insights.
Check for processes that consume a lot of RAM, such as your game or heavy applications. Open the performance settings and review memory usage. With around 3.3 to 3.5 GB running Chrome and Steam, you're in the right range.
You're currently using Steam and Chrome with 2.5GB of RAM in use out of a total of 13.3GB available, with 12.0GB cached. This prompts the question about RAM caching. Asus ROG offers a tool called ROG Ramcache, which lets you choose a drive and allocate more RAM—ranging from 100MB to 13GB, with a simple start button. Should you consider using it? It might help improve performance if you're experiencing slowdowns.
