Flyingfish Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Hi, I get occasional micro stutters from frame time spikes and it can be quite immersion breaking. Is this normal in VR or is there a way of eradicating them completely? I was wondering if installing an M.2 NVMe drive might help. Any ideas? Just to clarify, Neither my GPU or any CPU cores are above 60% when this happens so I thought it might be something to do with the SSD I'm using not being quite fast enough.

dburne Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 I would not think so with your rig. Might want to look at reducing some graphics settings.

Do you think upgrading to an m.2 NVMe drive could reduce the number of frame time spikes? Sometimes it seems as if some of the spikes are caused by scenery being loaded, I have no idea if this is absolute nonsense though. RTX 5090, AMD 9800x3D, 64GB Ram, Quest Pro, Windows 11

I would not think so, main benefit I think would be in Windows loading time and maybe game loading time. Even that not by a lot. You are not short in the ram department so your rig is not having to read from disk on the fly.

I'm pretty sure I don't have any led management software but I think I'll try doing a clean install of Windows, my computer was due one which was why I've been thinking of getting an M.2 drive. These micro stutters aren't unique to DCS, I get them in other sims as well. It often seems to be the case that when I fly round in circles in the same area the stutters stop. It feels like the process of loading new scenery is causing the problem. RTX 5090, AMD 9800x3D, 64GB Ram, Quest Pro, Windows 11
durp Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 If it helps.. I had constant and persistent micro stutters, like every ~3 seconds, even without VR. What helped me there was selecting the High/Ultimate performance profile in the windows Power Options.
