Some suggestions/ideas of things to check/try: (if you haven’t already)
Set the game file priority to ’high’ in task manager
Disable Dynamic Tick.
CMD -
bcdedit /set disabledynamictick yes
bcdedit /set useplatformclock true
bcdedit /set tscsyncpolicy Enhanced -Restart PC
Set Intel Graphics Power Plan to ’maximum performance’
- Edit power plan - advanced power - power options - advanced settings - Intel(R) graphics settings - settings - select Maximum Performance
Disable everything in the Xbox Game Bar App (or delete it entirely from the computer) or atleast disable Background Recording/capture and Audio Recording - set to OFF.
Disable unnecessary Background Apps. ex. Third party antivirus, game pass widget,, PC cleaner, and similar stuff.

Quite advanced troubleshooting.
There is no need to elevate the game priority, that's ages old advice when games and cards were less powerful.
No need to change the Intel GPP either.
I agree disable the XB Game Bar and service if you wish (unless of course, it has something you want or desire....)
Agree with BG apps, don't use selective startup though, just de-fluff the PC. Uninstall unwanted apps and disable auto-start on those you don't need at start (every start). Not rocket science.
But yeah, hardware first, ensure it's updated, which is why I requested the dxdiag. 😃
You'd be surprised that most people think that they've updated everything. Another pair of eyes never hurts.
Edit: That's a ridiculous amount of cores and RAM. Post your hardware_settings_info.xml
Hey, thanks for your assistance.
I've attached my hardware_settings_info.xml (shared as txt as it the forum won't allow xml upload) and dxdiag. As far as I know, everything is up to date but you may see something in the data that I haven't.
It's certainly a lot of cores and RAM! It's not primarily a gaming rig.
I have tested on three different displays using different outputs from the 3090 with the exact same issue across all three, so can fairly confidently rule them out.
- Samsung Odyssey G65B
- Dell U2718Q
- MSI Prestige ps341wu

Mainboard make and model I know it's probably ASUS but the model will help.
Drive C low on space.
It's a ROG Rampage VI Extreme.
Game isn't installed on the C drive. Tried reinstalling on two other drives, same issued persisted so can rule out storage device.
- @SteveJackson You’re probably right. They were just some steps/ tips I stumbled upon recently (wasn’t related to my issue, but thought it was worth a bookmark)
They were from an article/guide about troubleshooting the game stutter issues with windows 11, if the latest update didn’t fix it. Thought OPs problem sounded like it could be similar or related.I can only see this as a display sync issue.
Do you have a frame counter? I use Afterburner.
Counter-intuitively, reducing graphics settings is likely to make the issue worse.
Delete the hardware-settings-config.xml
DDU the Nvidia driver. Don’t optimise or set anything in the driver or GFE.
Run the game at the monitors native resolution and in High or Ultra High preset.
Enable V-SYNC in game, set to highest resolution supported. Turn off the in-game frame limiter.
Disable DLSS use TAA for AA. Don’t use RT.
The monitor should frame limit. Report your FPS in that mode or if the game exhibits the stutter in benchmarks as you say, post the benchmark.xml file
Thanks.
Thanks. I've tried all those but none have fixed it.
The exact issue persists across three different monitors I've tested this with.
Please see attached benchmark xml and CSV. The frame time CSV shows the stutter happening exactly every 10 seconds, with the first occurring at 9.04387.
To confirm, this is happening in only the F1 game, I'm getting no stuttering in anything else eg AC, ACC, iRacing.
