Game freezing issues persist despite standard fixes.
Game freezing issues persist despite standard fixes.
I've been dealing with a persistent stutter in an online game. I've tried various fixes such as graphics adjustments, updated drivers, and new hardware, but nothing resolved the issue. Recently, I realized the problem aligns with spikes in the task manager on the ethernet section—specifically, the 'Send' line showing an interval and then dropping, which coincides with when the stutter happens.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.
Did you use DDU to remove your GPU drivers before manually reinstalling with the latest driver?
CPU: amd ryzen 5 3600
CPU cooler: coolermaster hyper evo 212 v2
motherboard: b450f
RAM: corsair vengeance 32gb (2x16) 3600mhz

gpu: msi 1660ti (oc i think)
psu: corsair tx650m (few months old)

os: windows
monitor: acer xf243y 165hz
monitor is under a year old, cooler and gpu are about a year old, ram is brand new, case storage mb cpu are about 3 years old
BIOS is latest
i have reinstalled my gpu driver just recently as this is one of the common solutions to a problem like this (i've tried almost all of them as i mentioned in the post)
