I need help - Getting really annoying frametime spikes/stutter despite high FPS
I’m getting good FPS overall, but the game feels stuttery because of constant frametime spikes/microstutters. Example: game runs around 120, but randomly drops to 105-110 for a split second and it feels awful. If I cap at 110, it still drops to ~100 and so on until about 70fps which doesn't feel great in a shooter like this.
Lowering resolution does basically nothing (3440x1440 native, tried with all FSR settings and also lower internal res), lowering graphics settings increases average fps but stutters persist.
My specs are R7 9700x, RX 9070 XT, 32GB DDR5 6000Mhz.
I have a friend who has a 7800xt and R7 7700x and he gets stable 140fps in native 1440p high settings, so basically same res as me after I turn on FSR, yet my frames are lower AND its stuttering.
Things I already tried:
cleared AMD shader cache
disabled overlays
tested FPS caps
Enhanced Sync OFF
Anti-Lag OFF
fullscreen mode and borderless
disabled rebar
reinstalled drivers
reinstalled the game
Anyone else getting this? PLEASE I've tried EVERYTHING. I just can't play like this
