    Here is a video capture of microstuttering I had today. It was the worst one I had till now , spikes were ginormous. It started happening around round number 11 or so in the match. It started small and got worse and worse till the point you see. Basically when it happens my game freezes for fraction for a second. For fps game this means you are practically playing blind most of the time.

    Thats impressive, never seen anything close to that.
    I take it you used shadowplay to record that, and it was running in the background the whole time?
    I know i uninstalled gforce experience after a short while when it came out as it caused "issues", i just cant remember exactly what type of issues.

    Things worth considering.
    Uninstall Gforce Experience and all things related to it.
    Look into disabling core parking.

    Shadowplay had nothing to do with the microstuttering. I had it just the same before I started the recording with shadowplay (it was disabled in GF Experience app before this).
    Core parking is disabled on all 4 cores. I tried changing the pre rendered frames from 1 to 4, it happens all the same. I tried uninstalling GF Experience and it has no impact on the game. Also tried verifying game cache and completely uninstalling and installing the game again. Not to mention I tried 4 different driver versions, one that was older than my Maxwell GPU :) (managed to make it work but the issue was still there).

    I'm out of ideas by this point. It's such a shame, game runs great now until this issue starts happening. Then it's completely unplayable as you can see above. I didn't stop playing only because I wanted to record this for this forum.

    "Never seen anything close to that" :) I posted the exact same spikescreen a 3/4 year ago :P And i will say it again : Since im back on win 7 with a driver from october 2014 the lines are flat as me.
    AAPG is good!

    On Friday I finally go get my new PC parts (its only took a few months to get there :lol: ), if I still get these darn stutters on a i7 4790K CPU & EVGA GTX 970 SC 4GB GPU and 8GB of Ram (for starters).. then I will completely give up, I don't think there's much more I can do to try and be rid of them, maybe a Titan.. but gosh I'm not flush enough for one of those beasts (YET!) :lol:

    I didn't get this stuff just for AA before anyone says 'what the heck you mad?'.. I play lots of games but my current rig is lagging way behind :mrgreen:

    I'll let ya know what happens :)
    If my trollery drives you crazy, you'd better put on your seatbelt.

    SHHHHH! I was trying to be positive about it, on the plus side.. I will now be able to play GTAV without wanting to punch my monitor, stamp on my keyboard and throw the PC Tower out the window :lol:

    I got this microstuttering too, nothing of those things mentioned earlier has solved it so far.

    It happens after 20 Minutes of playing within a match and it ends when I restart AAPG.

    Current specs:

    i7 4770k @ 4,2ghz
    16GB Ram
    2x GTX980 in SLI
    Windows 10 Pro x64 build: 240

    Everything watercooled, so temps are not the problem.

    I have installed almost every driver starting with the current one 353.30 back to the first win10 driver.

    Got that microstutter on all of them. Aapg is the only game I have problem with.

    Any other solution?

    The same problem here with laptop ASUS ROG G771JM with i7 @ 2.6-3.6 and GTX960 4GB. Windows 8.1.

    I'm playing now. First without Razor game booster enabled, had a lot of freezes, some several seconds. After enabled Game booster, freezes are gone. Default settings on Game booster.
    My original nick is -Ner0-
    It's now banned after the
    latest update.

    Tried the razer game booster, same thing.

    The same problem here with laptop ASUS ROG G771JM with i7 @ 2.6-3.6 and GTX960 4GB. Windows 8.1.

    I have looked at a lot of different ways to improve performance. Like everyone else already mentioned: its not your hardware, its the game. I still need to tweak .ini files to get proper FPS with hardware that is WAY above this game. I struggle to maintain 120+FPS on lowest settings possible (and even uglier with .ini) while i get stable 120+ on max settings in other modern games.

    That being said there are several things that lower input lag and increase overall performance. When i had peaks during latency checks outside AA I had microstutters ingame. Fixing those issues fixed my performance ingame. For me it was a mismatch between drivers/hardware and programs running in the background on certain interval. Try downloading DPC Latency checker and follow the instructions: http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml

    I do this every time I reinstall or get new hardware. The difference between before and after tweaks is very noticeable for me. Before i tweaked (Bios etc.) my latency was higher and less stable. Definitely a big difference. For people not really used to it try following a simple guide like: http://www.overclock.net/t/1433882/gaming-and-mouse-response-bios-optimization-guide-for-modern-pc-hardware

    Apart from the above mentioned tweaks, the things that are easy to do that help for me:

    -Close browsers. I get 40+FPS with my browsers closed. Seems CPU or RAM related tasks ruin AA regardless of the amount of CPU/RAM power you have left.
    -Use specific boot options in Steam> set priority to '-high'

    If it works for you spread the word :)

    Good luck!

    You should not run the game on lowest settings with capable hardware it works much better with everything set to max. Just texture quality and all that stuff not talking about Anti Aliasing or stuff like that.
    Pie charts + Graphs= Very Bad.
