Since I built my PC 2 weeks ago I’ve been having constant microstutters in any game I play. Tuning graphics settings helps a bit but it’s still there no matter what I’ve tried. I’m generally trying to play at 1440p mid settings. I’ll have a decent 70-90 sometimes 100 fps frame rate but when I turn my mouse to look around there’s a clear visual stutter. Same if I’m running around a busy city. I upgraded my CPU last night and that helped a bit but the problem is still there. Any other B580 users run into this and find a fix? All advice is appreciated. When I’ve posted about this in other subs all I get is I bought a “shitty intel GPU””

Yes rebar is enabled, yes I’ve got ram on highest mhz, yes I’ve downloaded the most recent GPU drivers, yes my motherboard is on most recent bios, v-sync is off on all games and instead I use freesync on my monitor.

Games I’ve tried;
- Arma Reforger
- DayZ
- Palworld
- PUBG

BUILD SPECS;
- MSI MAG Tomahawk B550 Max Wifi
- Ryzen 7 5800x3D
- Arc B580
- Corsair Vengeance 32 GB DDR4 @ 3200 mhz
- Corsair RMx 750w

edit;

I forgot to list my SSD

- Bestoss GM328 M.2 PCIe 3.0 nvme (512 gb)

I’m trying my hardest to snag one today but I’m not sure it’s even worth it for my situation.

Setup is;

MSI 550 Tomahawk

32 gb Corsair vengeance DDR4

Ryzen 7 3700x

Intel Arc B580

Playing at 1440p low - mid settings

Drivers are updated, rebar is enabled , shader caching is enabled and expo is enabled

I just built my PC on Saturday and have tried DayZ , Arma Reforger & Palworld and I’m stuttering and getting major FPS drops on all of them even at low - mid settings. I’ve done a bit of research and it says my issue is most likely the 3700x causing a bottleneck. My question is should I keep trying to snag a 5800x3D or would I benefit greatly from just popping a 5500x3D in and avoiding the headache? My goal is consistent FPS at 1440p mid - high settings. I plan on upgrading to an AM5 build in roughly a years time I just can’t stand the constant stuttering and FPS drops with my current build. If I could save myself the stress of trying to get the 5800x3D and also save $150 I’d love to just get the 5500x3D, I’m just not sure if it will solve my problem. Any advice?
