Dan3345 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Since the release of skyrim my computer largely due to crossfire has extreme stuttering while playing. Over the months I have tried many "fixes". One worked, it was the skyrim 64 hertz stutter remover. There was just one problem. It overrode direct X calls and intercepted them which slowed down the render of each frame. The result was annoying screen tearing no matter what FPS I was getting. So I used to make a compromise between playing with crossfire off (which lowered performance drastically but removed stuttering), playing with the 64 hertz fix which removed most of the stuttering but brought on screen tearing, or simply doing nothing and suffering through extreme stuttering with vsync on or off, and still screen tearing. Well on 12.6 beta drivers, and with 12.6 cap 1 I have found the answer accidentally. I was playing Stalker which I cap the FPS with using Bandicam. I left it on and then went into skyrim. The FPS was capped at 60 and with vsync on. I immediately noticed there was no stuttering which I had decided to suffer through. So it works, just download Bandicam (which is free) set the FPS cap to whatever you want and then play. Make sure its running though. I'm not sure why it works so well but it does and that's what is important. For me this has fixed two problems. It got rid of screen tearing because I can keep vsync on and it got rid of stuttering because the game isn't making calls to direct X anymore. SO yeah, please if you are having issues with stuttering try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhegonus Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 there is a skyrim fps limiter in the databases here.. also, game booster 3.5 can also cap fps i do believe too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan3345 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Did you read the post? None of the stutter I had and I know others on here complained of was related to the FPS being too low or high. And gamebooster only frees RAM for programs so to my knowledge there is no way it could increase FPS. The only thing it could possibly do is too free enough space for more frames and processes to be loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
