System specs:
2 x 290x saphhire radeons, 13.11 v9.5 beta drivers
i7 920 @ 4ghz
3 x 8gb 1600mhz ddr3
Asus P6T Deluxe x58
Soundblaster X-Fi
corsair hx1000 PSU
2560x1600 resolution
So far, every single game is a stutter fest if I enable vsync, and if I don't enable vsync there is major microstuttering. Furthermore, the sound is crackling and in "slow mo". Doesn't seem to matter if I'm running crossfire or one card, the stutter fest still occurs.
I am finding with vsync on, framerates are GARBAGE like 15-30fps (oddly enough, league of legends is reporting 60fps on the nose). If I turn vsync off, the framerates are normal (even crazy high like 300+ in some games) but it is definitely not smooth, it feels like microstuttering, big time.
Specific games:
League of Legends, everything maxed, vsync on = super slow fps even though the game reports 60fps, sound crackling. With vsync off, it's microstuttering whether crossfire is on or off.
Hitman Absolution, everything maxed except 2x FSAA, vsync on = super slow fps, sound crackling, and there is major mouse lag.
Far Cry 3, everything maxed except 2x FSAA, vsync on = super slow, sound crackling, major mouse lag. With vsync off, it's microstuttering in crossfire.
Borderlands 2, everything maxed, vsync on = getting a lot of stuttering, like a game thats alternating between 30 and 60fps. Definitely not smooth, getting the sound crackling. With vsync off, its not microstuttering but there's coil whine galore...
I've tried turning off frame pacing, enabling +50% power limit, and max fan speed of 100% and it makes no difference. Tried a different sound card (soundblaster x-fi) / onboard sound, no difference. Tried enabling/disabling crossfire and typically makes no difference.
Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone know how to fix it by chance?
