Frametime spikes and stuttering after switching to AMD CPU?

where do i find this?
In the bios under IO ports, -> PCIe settings - Set “Resizable BAR Support” → Disabled.

I've seen this setting cause stutters if the Board/Memory/IMC aren't playing well together. Turning it off sometimes works - you lose single digits performance but you get smoother play.

will try that, and if that doesnt work i guess testing a new CPU is the best call?

Hey just wanted to chime in with some firsthand experience with ReBar. I was giving my brother's computer a checkup because he was having issues with a game running properly. I ran Cinebench r24 and his GPU was getting something like half of what other people were getting. We googled around and found a thread that said to toggle ReBar on and off again because a bios update turned it off but it still appeared as enabled. After turning ReBar back on, the GPU got within a few points of the public CB r24 benchmark results. His setup is a 14700k with 7800 XT

I would bet it's the motherboard/ram causing issues. So if you end up swapping those out then you will likely solve the issues - i don't think it's really the cpu. You might just want to run 16GB one kit just to see if it stops stuttering and then just get a different ram kit if so.

Corsair Vengence kits and AMD setups have a long and storied history of problems together.

i already tried only running 16gb and also tried a completely different 16gb kit

The other one was a G.Skill Trident Z 16GB 3200Mhz Kit

same problems

It was disabled already, I turned it on now (auto there was no other option)

Edit: it didnt help

I can either buy.

A new AM4 CPU for roughly 130-230€

An AM5 Setup for roughly 460€(Ryzen 7600, Corsair Ram)

An Intel 1700 Setup for roughly 380€(i5 14400f, Corsair Ram)

As others have suggested, focus on the storage driver and everything storage related since LatencyMon indicated a problem with that driver. I'd suggest to download SDIO tool https://www.glenn.delahoy.com/snappy-driver-installer-origin/ and post a screenshot of what drivers have an available update. Do not update any drivers before wee see what drivers need updating.

I can either buy.
Why are you considering buying when you haven't tried basic suggestions such as the above?

Because someone suggested it, and im also getting kinda frustrated i tried probably over 20 things already and nothing changed, i can try it ofc

Intel 1700 is a smooth and mature platform - go for that... u can pick up 12600KF for cheap, clock it to 5.1Ghz and it will scream in games. Use windows 10 and you will have gaming performance on par with current gen non-x3d chips. I loved my 12600K.

That being said, if you can swing the 7600 AM5 - it will have more legs to upgrade.

I would only go 1700 if you can save a bunch of money and want to overclock (they do well with tuning, especially the i5s). If you want to just plop it in and play with minimal fafo then the AM5 platform is the way to go.

The 9600X is almost the same price here I would lean that way if AM5 depending on the spread in Germany. My 5800X system is as smooth as butter with no real user intervention I even let windows upgrade itself to 11 lol for Science. I have Bdie that is manually tuned but that's it.

I agree if lga1700 is super cheap I would consider it.

For $60 more I'd go 14600k and make sure the bios is updated, IF you are going LGA1700.


It looks like the 14600k beats the 9900x in multi-threaded tasks. Won't matter as much for games, but would for everything else.



That's AM5 though, so a bigger buy-in cost than LGA1700

WOOPS I got the 9600X instead of the 9900X, one moment

You can get the 12600kf right now for $130 and a DDR4 LGA1700 for $95 here...

throw in that 4x8 kit for 32GB - max the TREFI on it, clock it to 5.1 Ghz and killer gaming and even productivity at $225 all in.

the AM5 you have to buy the board, cpu, and ram - so the cheapest is going to be like $170 (CPU) + 130 (board) + 100 (ram) ~ $400 all in...

I think the OP is in germany so it's 170 vs 210 I think.

Yes im in Germany.
The Mainboard is not available here in germany

I could get this i can also sell my old Ram and maybe then i would "only" pay 320€ or something for it

Here’s another example in a game i played with a friend right now "Peak"


Stutters: 0:05, 0:16, 1:09, 1:30, 2:05 and much more

I just hope its really not the GPU dont want to swap my Mainboard and CPU and its still not fixed
 
dont get the 14400F - you can get a used Z board (used boards are typically great on older gen)... even a DDR5 one

1750716377637.png

^idk how that 5070 got in there...

1750716812525.png


The i5 K series can lock in at 5.3Ghz-5.5Ghz and sit there all day long - much faster especially if you boost ring as well.

AMD build (these giga boards do so well with the ram auto timings):

i would rather not buy a used one, so if the problem is still not fixed i can return it

Just swapping the ram to SP gets you to the 14600KF for about the same price that corsair ram is way overpriced. The 14400 is alderlake refreshed the 14600KF cores have more cache which is better for gaming.

so i should get a 14600kf and some "random" ram just not corsair? what would be a good New mainboard The MSI one that @phanbuey posted is sadly not available here

did u guys see the Video? in that video its a "extreme" example of how the stutters look like sometimes

The important part is 6000CL30 not the brand get whatever brand you want that isn't stupidly priced.... I don't have a board preference as long as it can handle the 14600KF and has all the connectivity you need that is all that matters.





edit: the German site is hard to navigate lol I clicked new only and used still pops up for me lol.

This available to you new for around that price?

alright^^ but you guys are certain that this is not a GPU problem at all?
Or is it hard to say

I would say unlikely games will stutter if you exceed the vram but I doubt with the games you are mentioning that is the problem. Something on the GPU would need to be overheating otherwise and at least in my experiences you are more likely to see artifacts than stutters if your gpu is on the fritz otherwise they either work or don't work especially if you aren't having system shut downs or BSOD.

Whatever you do make sure it has a good return policy and at least you'll know it seems like you've exhausted most reasonable avenues with your current system.

Stutters are a super tricky thing it could be a usb port on your case causing it honestly I would try setting your system up on cardboard just to rule that out if you haven't already.

you can return used on amazon - amazon return policy is pretty good.

I was going to say usually the return policy is the same but once out of the return period you are SOL I would spend a bit more on something new.

There it's 30 days it seems here it's 90 which I thought was interesting.
 
but - you didn't have stutters on the 11400f system - so it's likely something system related - if the same software stack and peripherals.

3070s don't stutter like that in league or CS that is something hard interrupting the system - could be usb device, NIC, ram issues etc.

Yes thats why I also removed some usb devices I used before like USB Hubs or Wireless connectors, but since I had no issues with Those devices on my other Build it should not be the PC-Case then Right?

The I5 is at 190€ here and I cant seem to find any Mainboard under 130€
