What causes freezing and stuttering during high FPS gaming?
I'm dealing with an unusual problem in both Valorant and League of Legends. When the FPS exceeds 200, my character begins to teleport on the screen, and I notice stutters that feel like packet loss or latency issues. The ping remains normal, and I’m not seeing any packet loss. Notably, the issue vanishes when I set the FPS to 200 in both games. If anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
My PC setup is this:
Processor: Ryzen 5600
CPU overclocking attempted but issue continues.
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2, latest BIOS.
Memory: 32GB (2x16) at 2666MHz, overclocked to 3200MHz with timing changes, still no fix.
GPU: RX 6600, latest driver installed, older drivers tried without success.
Storage: 1TB M.2 SSD.
I've tried various solutions without success:
- Running games in windowed and borderless modes.
- Fully formatting the PC with Windows 10 and 11, skipping driver installs, only using Windows Update.
- Clearing all settings with Windows 10 and 11, optimizing system, updating chipset and GPU drivers.
- Resetting BIOS settings.
- Rolling back to an older BIOS version.
- Updating BIOS to the newest release.
- Turning off fullscreen optimization in Windows.
- Disabling Game Mode.
- Updating chipset and GPU drivers to latest versions.
- Disabling High Precision Event Timer in BIOS and Windows.
- Testing older chipset and graphics card drivers.
- Pushing CPU overclock to 4650 MHz.
- Pushing RAM overclock to 3200 MHz.
- Adjusting RAM timings.
- Changing DisplayPort cable.
- Using an HDMI cable.
- Testing with another monitor.
- Testing with a different RX 570 graphics card.
- Running Memtest86 without memory errors.
- Executing Cinebench R23 without problems.
- Using CPU-Z benchmark and achieving expected scores for a Ryzen 5600.
