Need For Speed: Most Wanted Stutter/Hitch

Okay, no matter the settings I get hitching at around ~70mph or higher, especially in the city, doesn't matter if its 800x600 minimum settings, or 1680x1050 maximum settings, same stutter. Any hel...

No matter the settings it hovers between 503mb VRAm and 499MB VRAM usage.

Still stuttering in town, now only at around 100+mph, but unplayable, can't get past some of the Most Wanted race challenges since it'll stutter and wreck me. Frame rate never dips below 30FPS (lock to 30 is turned on) so it is not the framerate. 

So, any word of a fix? Upcoming patch? A little info would be nice.

Thanks

    If you're using a nvidia card, try turning off ambient occulsion, vastly improved it for me. It's more or less only shadows that are affected and I can live with that.

      I'm on AMD, and AO doesn't affect the stuttering for me, nothing does, it does it irregardless of settings.

      Here are the modified settings that helped a bit:

      LockTo30=true
      FitToVertical=false
      ParticleShadows=false (?)
      FrameLatency=0
      VsyncInterval=0

      But it's still stuttering, makes me mad since the game is fun as hell, even bought the DLC's for it.

      Hope it's fixed soon.

        Look up a software called Radeon Pro, it does wonders for AMD cards
