Hi, for the last two years i've been trying to play a game, a game made by a small company who have a poor game engine that can't handle a lot of polys in one place after five different computers, and trying every single possible trick, component in the book reading every topic on the internet i am 100% completely lost, its the only game i want to play and it seems to work for most other people with slimier hardware. The problem is i get stuttering at anything below 60fps and with this being a poor game engine driving towards where you have polys (vehicles say) your fps will at least drop to 55, this causes huge stutter, i found a few members who are affected by this but most people are not most people can run 50fps and it be perfectly smooth, im not being rude but anything you probably suggest i would of tried i need somthing different i've only used two different 60hz monitors over the 5 computers i have ever had (all have been medium-high spec) I think it may have somthing to do with vysnc but i can't stand the tearing witch looks like stutter anyway, i know stuttering is a big problem with lots of games at the moment, but this game is differen't there are fixes for other games but this game being small with a small development team with a small fan base, there are none. I'm welcome to all suggestions/questions.

My spec:
Nvida GTX660TI
intel core i7 3770K
8gb RAM
1tb seagate harddrive 7200RPM (tried many different)
Windows 7 ultimate 64bit

Oh and the game is farming simulator 2013.

Component wise i have tried: swapping ram, swapping Hard drive, tried different PSU.
Remember i have had 5 different computers and all have failed, each one configured with intel and nvidia. I think ive just about had it with nvidia right now though, maybe time for a change to amd.

Did you try this :

You should be OK i think - tr to see you CPU , RAM , GPU , HHD load under bad FPS scenario !

The 660ti is the same GPU as the 670 with the only difference being the memory bus width being smaller on the 660ti. The smaller memory subsystem can be a real bane in some games and situations and i think in this game it is the issue.

I can answer this by saying my old setup was similar but had the gtx670 graphics card and that two had the same problem.
And nickolay i will try that now.

I did the system requirements and passed with flying colours, the spec to run this game is quite low you could max out this game with mods with a gtx550ti.
 
sounds like you just need to turn on Vsync and triple buffering in NVidia control panel. what your experiencing isn't a NVidia issue, or hardware issue. The stuttering and tearing is from not having vsync enabled so the frames are out of sync with the monitors refresh rate.

Nope, i play with vysnc ON, but when i turn it off i get extreme tearing so it is not possible to turn off, as soon as my fps hits 58 with vysnc on i get stutters.
thanks,

And i know its strange to downgrade, but i sent the 670 PC back, and didn't see the point in a 670 to run this game anyway so went for the 660ti in my new PC of course selling was stupid anyway as i knew it wouldn't fix it, but trying to play this game since 2011 without stutter has been tearing my hair out, and other people can run 40 fps and see no stutter with vysnc on.

Try track on you system specs bottle neck with this ON SCREEN INFO :
http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/655138-how-monitoring-cpu-gpu-temperatures-game-benchmark-screen-display.html

CPU LOAD
RAM LOAD
GPU LOAD
GPU TEMP

I have seen NVIDIA GPU that have under clock them self to prevent damage when they get warm
add GPU CLOCK`s also in INFO
Post some Pics
Try FURMARK sability test - is the picture run smooth or it`s shutter also ?
