Do you have the most recent drivers installed? 3060Ti drivers from the the card manufacturers page, motherboard drivers from Asus's page, etc.

I've had an instance where I was getting slight pauses in game play, and corsair recommended I increase the voltage to my ram 1 notch and that fixed the problem.

Yeah I've updated to newest drivers problem persisted I reverted using ddu and installing the older drivers still stuttered, I got the mobo drivers from asus and did a bios update as well.

there is currently an issue with windows that affects every single PC that i have.

windows completely blasts the ram full to the last megabyte with standby code for stuff like games that you never used.

the problem is that windows does not delete standby ram and keeps filling the pagefile instead.
this results (for me as well) in massive stuttering across the board.

this is my standby ram while i am writing this at the moment.


the tool RamMap (that was actually recommended from a "voluntary support member" on the microsoft forum)

clear the standby ram and try if you have stuttering issues.

G-Sync is not the end all of stutters, tearing ,& other refresh/Frame rate issues sadly. i found G-sync can still suffer all of the above, even with the best of hardware. id try disabling G-sync & instead use either a fixed Refresh rate, or ULMB, see if it helps. set your GPU to adaptive power mode , or performance mode in control panel, see if it helps.

Downloaded and cleared the standby memory it still stuttered I'm genuinely lost on the problem lol.

I don't have G Sync atm but I did try capping the framerate to my refresh rate or a few frames below it, it still dips in frames and causes the stutter, should I download latencymon and see if there's a problem on that end?

That;s so weird, having the same issue on 3 PCs, intel and AMD, are the 3 PCs from the same pre built brand from Newegg ?

Maybe they must have installed some bloatware that affect performance in a negative way ?

Have you tried to re install windows yourself ?

I tried a clean install on the two other pre builts I haven't tried it on this one yet, to my knowledge the only things that were installed was Aura I'm baffled by the problem, then again I'm not tech savvy at all so I really wouldn't know the problem.

Try hooking it trough VGA cable insted of HDMI, also if you have spare monitor or TV try hooking them to your PC as well and test it. stuttering can also be cause by damaged cables, display connectors, or maybe a finicky display.

Is this issue just limited to a single game? I don't recall you mentioning what game you're playing.

3060Ti only has HDMI and DP. But I agree with the sentiment.

The pc itself has no vga input, I tried hdmi/vga combo on the old aoc monitor still had the same problem, I didn't test my TV but I'll do this now

I was trying to play Mordhau, Insurgency Sandstorm, Gears 5, RDR2 and they weren't performing right only ones I tried so far.

Try a different HDMI cable as well while you'r at it.

I know its weird having lot of advices revolve around the display but you had THREE different PCs with the same problem, the only part that was consistent across all of them is the display, this has to mean something...

I understand it sounds hard to believe but I have insane bad luck like that lol, I tested with another hdmi cord on both the monitor and TV and still happens

Honestly am all out of ideas, i guess the only thing left to say is go to church and cleanse yourself with holy water from whatever bad charm that cursed your luck

But seriously though, at thing point i will just take it to a PC service, and have them do a complete troubleshooting session to narrow it out.

To clarify, your GPU usage is always around 39-mid 40 percent? Or is it normally much higher than that and only drops around there when you're experiencing the stutter?

- Have you set Windows Power Plan to high performance?
- Are all Windows updates installed?
- Do you have Nvidia Shadowplay or Xbox Game Bar's recording feature enabled by any chance? I had an occasion where Radeon ReLive was causing my entire PC to stutter (would get the Windows 10 cursor loading circle every few seconds on desktop). Playing games was impossible. Disabling ReLive fixed it for me.

It's always around that usage but just now Mordhau reached 60% usage but then fell to 53% it just fluctuates a lot

Yes windows plan is high perform, w10 is updated as well I just disabled game bar but no luck I don't have shadowplay, I'm lost lol.

What about CPU usage/RAM usage?

Sounds weird, but maybe try moving your keyboard and mouse to different USB ports? II feel like I've seen issues like this be related to weird USB port happenings.

Don't know if I can freely send images but this is what overlay showed in game , I can try moving the usbs yeah.

Just throwing out a couple of long-shots.

Have you tried without Afterburner running? I remember something about Afterburner and stuttering.

Also, are you running any other software at the same time you're gaming that may also have installed and running on your previous computer?

Yeah I tried without Afterburner running and it still felt the same, the only things I have running is steam, afterburner and the game I have on.

 

[Solid State Soul ( SSS )]

Are you playing on Fullscreen mode, or on windowed full screen ?
Cause windowed mode caps GPU usage

Fullscreen definitely I only used windowed to check my task manager one time.

What's Task Manager show you as far as processes go while gaming? There should be an option in there to set it always on top so you don't have to swap to windowed mode.

You mention you tried manually capping FPS at 75 or a few below. Have you tried enabling Adaptive VSync in Nvidia Control Panel?

What graphics settings are you playing on? Does cranking them up to ultra increase GPU usage?

 

[Deleted member 202104]

Another long shot:

Within the menu of the monitor, can you check to see if FreeSync is enabled or disabled? Try setting it to the opposite of what you find it set to and try again.
