Slight..."Stutter"...in Doom 3 w/6800GT...How?

[Ricko]

I am experiencing a slight stutter every 10 seconds or so even at lower resolutions....AF...off...AA...off. 400/1100. Have latest drivers and new system: Athlon 64 3200+.....1 gig....Audigy2....PNY 6800 GT....This thing should be...SCREAMIN"

There is no driver residule as I ran driver cleaner after delete from control panel. What do you guys think?

try opening up your doomconfig.cfg file and changing the cache value to 256 or 512.

I have the same problem I only have 512mb ram so im guessing its that. Running High settings. Is there anyway to get your framerate without FRAPS? like a console command?

fps console command is:

com_showfps 1

Turn Vsync on if you have it off.

it's probably overheating. see if it does that at stock.

 

[tranCendenZ]

turn off vsync and set your GT to stock speeds, stuttering is often because of clock throttling.

also disable all background apps.

if the stuttering is accompanied by that clickety click click of your hard drive, then defrag

It's vsync...I only get it when running the timedemo with vsync on...turned it off and it worked fine...with vsync on I got stuttering...funny though, I played the whole game at those settings and never had any problems whatsoever...now that I go back and play with the timedemo, I have to disable vsync to get it to run right...very wierd...
