DCS 2.9.16.10523 with AMD 9950X3D gives periodic high CPU core usage (on non X3D V-Cache cores)

[darkman222]

Having switched to an AMD 9950X3D I had a perfect stutter free playback until the DCS 2.9.16.10523 terrain engine update came out. I have periodic stutters now. Not severe but immersion breaking in VR.

Using fpsVR I realized that it might be related to the CPU frame usage graph showing periodic spikes on the cores that are non v-cache x3d cores. Aka the ones that are not meant DCS or games to be run on. This was not the case before DCS 2.9.16 came out.

 

These high CPU usage spikes sometimes seem to transfer over to the x3d cores then disappear.

 

I am experimenting with process lasso to tie DCS to the X3D cores only. Seems to help, but still investigating.

 

In the image I marked the x3d processors where DCS should run on.

System is a AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D, MSI X870 Gaming Plus, RTX 4090

In the video on the left side of the comparison you see the recent DCS version and how the CPU spikes appear and disappear.
