Re: Microstuttering / stuttering (win8, AMD 6870) - BF3 - have I tried everything?


oh and forgot to add

start button

type power management

then go to Change Power Saving Settings
Then go to High Performance Change your management plan if needed

Then go to Change Plan Settings

Change Advanced power settings

Click on the + Processor Power Management

Set minimum power state to 100%

i personally would recommend you try using this driver http://downloads.guru3d.com/AMD-Catalyst-12.7-Official-BETA-W7-download-2937.html [downloads.guru3d.com]

iv spoke with a few people and they say its actually helped allot let me know and if it doesn't will try something else.

    Hey: n00beris
    Thanks for the reply, sadly I've already tried the minumum 100% power to CPU in Windows power management. Good suggestion though.

    Added it to the list along with the fact that I made a clean Windows 8 install.

    Are you sure about the 12.7 driver? Don't know if you've noticed, but I'm using Windows 8 and W8 wasn't supported in Catalyst until 12.8, or is that the whole point?

    So, just tried with no sound devices. Still nothing there. However I found that:

    • If I go the the edge of a map, like Caspian Border and look away from the map into the emptyness there's no spikes.
    • If I limit the FPS to 30 via the "gametime.maxvariablefps 30" command, I get no spikes, but are also forced to play at 30 FPS. If I raise it to 50 the game will spike if there's a spike and the FPS is below 50.
