Hey guys,
I have been having this "microstutter/screentearing" issue for quite a while now and I was wondering what could be the cause of it. I dont remember experiencing any screen tearing, stuttering or any of these issues at all like 2 years ago. I notice it the most when playing CS:GO and Battlefield 1 has recently become literaly unplayable for me as the frame rate hovers around 40-60 fps and stuttering gets even worse it seems. Many times I was trying to fix it in many ways but I never got rid of it. I play a lot of FPS games so the "smooth" gameplay is a big deal for me. Now hear me out, I have a fairly old HP pc, which I bought around the end of 2012 and because I will be buying a new one in like a month or so, I would like to sort this issue out, because I will be keeping both my monitor and my graphics card as the gpu market is now flooded with overpriced gpus, plus I want to wait for Volta. The pc that I was talking about was kind of like an office pc and I didnt change any components except the graphics card and the HDD. The computer is an HP Elite 7500 Microtower.
My pc specs are:
i5 3570 non-k
MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4G
8gb ddr3 ram
HP motherboard
WD Blue 1TB
WD Black 1TB
PSU: Fortron Hyper S 700- I forgot to mention that I will be keeping the PSU as well if it doesnt prove faulty. Before I put this PSU in my computer there was a stock 350W PSU
My monitor: 27" Acer XB270Hbmjdprz Gaming
I read many threads reporting similar issues and an alarming number of the threads that I read included the GTX 970. Like a week ago I changed the video cable from display port to dvi and it seems to have made it a bit better. I think that the problem I have with BF1 is caused by my CPU, since its so CPU intensive, plus my CPU seems to be running at 95-100% on all cores when playing BF1 but before I was able to run it at around 70-100 fps. Another worrying fact that I noticed is that my GPU seems to be running at 60 degrees celsius when idle, but that may be due to the automatic fan mode which makes the fans stop spinning when the gpu is idle. What do you think is the most probable cause of the "stuttering/screen tearing" issue?
Thanks in advance and Im looking forwards to hear it from you guys. Remember that any clue could be helpful to me. P.S. I can find the stock components names if needed.
EDIT: The stutter is still there even when Im playing with like 200-300 fps on CS:GO
