[HELP:] stuttering in every games!

[tjane]

512MB, remember this

i always palying games at 1024x768 max detail w/o physiX, not more..i think 2gb is enough

this because of my monitor which is CRT......crap!


btw, is caused by "nforce" mobo??

Yeah i did read that. From what you are saying, the HD 4850 is the only change.

However, the symptoms that you experience are classic "out of memory" type errors. Does the hard drive light up when the level is loading as someone asked?

I believe you, and agree that 2gb should be enough for that type of gaming. The problem itself just reeks of memory. Especially since you changed operating systems so we know its hardware-related.

Did you install N-force drivers?

 

[francis511]

Prototype can be heavy on the cpu and crysis is a notorious gpu killer. Maybe your rig just can`t handle them ? Can you test any other games ? Maybe something lighter.

 

[tjane]

yes nforce driver installed

@francis
yeah buddy, i try nfsrostreet, stuttering when car run very fast..this is not a joke


sometimes stuttering happens in game menu..LOL

 

[phanbuey]

try removing the nforce drivers, and just let windows do its thing and install the windows driver. It could be that. I know nvidia drivers sometimes don't play nice.

Yeah that sounds like something else.

 

[EastCoasthandle]

yes, i give same value to each column=4GB

Each column? So you gave it 4GB for initial size and maximum size? Tell you what, change the option from Custom Size to No Page file then hit "set" for each Drive you have a pagefile on (one at a time). Hit ok then reboot when asked. Go back to Virtual Memory and select System Managed Size for just C: drive or the main drive that has your OS (no partitions). And try the game again.

i did that, still happen


@eastcosthandle
still happen man..


btw, try googling "4850 stutter" u will find a ton article..most 4850 user have same problem with me, does it mean 4850 is a bad card?


depend on title, actually stuttering not happen in Dirt2, and Devil my cry 4..and we all know this game need less cpu.

no its not that the 4850 is a bad card, just that lots of people encounter stuttering - and some of those people are blaming the 4850 for it.

 

[tjane]

OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!!
i've just benchmark my hardisk..and i got this..S#!T

to compare, this is condition when i buy this 5 month ago

is it prove that stutter caused by hardisk

 

[Mussels]

please use www.techpowerup.org for image hosting - i cant even see your images.

 

[tjane]

that odd..but image already hosted to techpowerup..nice buddy

Looks like you had stuff running while you ran that bench imo...if you didn't there could be an issue there for sure. Are you running low on HDD free space? I know you said you defragged...I'd do it again and a scandisk, maybe malware and AV scans just to be certain and safe.

Honestly in XP, that rig should be competent enough to game at higher resolutions (imo)...have you tried running games with a higher refresh rate? With V-Sync enabled?

Have you tried Catylist A.I. at Off, Low and High to see if any of those settings makes things worse or better? What driver version are you running?

Have you ran a stress test on your vid card (something like OCCT) to see if it stutters during that? How are temps during such an event? Maybe check in a tool like CPU-z and make sure the PCI-e speed hasn't dropped to 1X (though at that resolution I dunno if it'd stutter or not from that..).

I'm just running thoughts and questions through my head atm...figured I'd type em up and see if any help. Please answer the questions you can, and if you see something you haven't tried, definitely give it a shot!

 

[Mussels]

thats made the issue very clear, yes.


as i said earlier: either something is wrong with your hard drive, or another program is accessing the drive already.

 

[tjane]

Looks like you had stuff running while you ran that bench

no

Have you tried Catylist A.I. at Off

yes, no fix

have you tried running games with a higher refresh rate? With V-Sync enabled?

yes, even in win 7 ultimate 32bit(fresh install)..still happen

Have you ran a stress test on your vid card (something like OCCT) to see if it stutters during that?

yes, stable for more than 30minutes..and back it to stock, still happen..no changes..
temperature is 40'C under fulload

thats made the issue very clear, yes.

if that so, i will do RMA


btw, if i already get new hardisk..and stuttering still happen, what is the next problem??

 

[f22a4bandit]

I know you've probably done this, but maybe check the ati drivers and see if that's the problem if it isn't the hdd in the first place.

 

[tjane]

oh s#!t..i've just try same brand but diffrent size 500GB, and phenom X2 550 default clock...still happen..

and again, i try WDC 500GB with 32MB cache..and i lend MSi GTX 460 from my friend..game runs smoothly and very nice dx11 effect, but still stuttering very bad..
