Re: AMD bios settings

Does disabling TSME and Data Scramble work with AM5? I used all these settings and also disabled Power Down mode, enabled Resize Bar, enabled PBO, enabled EXPO II, disabled Memory Context Restore, set FCLK to 2000, and set UCLK equal to MEMCLK. I had to use the latter two since my PC wasn’t booting ...

Cracking sounds from my new monitor

Cracking sounds occasionally come from my Gigabyte M28U. These primarily happen when I turn my monitor on or off, but they also happen sporadically too. From what I read, this is apparently thermal expansion and is completely normal, especially in the winter, but how Ioud or frequent does the cracki...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

I’ll go back to those games and see if the APIs are different. I also did get them for free on Epic Games so maybe their performance on Epic Games is different somehow than Steam? I don’t see why it would be any different since they should be the same game, and I also benchmarked other games on Epi...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

Rise of the Tomb Raider has two APIs (DX11 and DX12), and Talos Princle has three (DX11, DX12, Vulkan). Perhaps you weren't benching them on the same APIs as the sites were. I’ll go back to those games and see if the APIs are different. I also did get them for free on Epic Games so maybe their perf...

Re: I've tried to replace almost everything in my PC. I'm still having issues, so I think it must be EMI or EMF now.

Hi bro, welcome to the EMI world, and congratulations u literally played every game. Haha yeah, it does feel like that. I still have many more I need to test out though... Do u feel any difference between nights and days? I do not. It seems to be the same between nights and days. I haven't actually...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

Not for testing stutter, because most games based on that engine are infamous for shader-compilation stutter. The general rule is, if there's one or more games on your system where you experience minimal to no stutter, and other games where you do, then it's the games themselves, not your system, c...

I've tried to replace almost everything in my PC. I'm still having issues, so I think it must be EMI or EMF now.

This is my parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YtW2Dq I built my PC last month, and I've been stuttering issues from the very start. I'd expect issues to start popping up after a few months or a year, but they definitely should not be happening as soon as I get my PC... maybe I'm being too pes...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

The Arkham series is infamous for open-world stutter on PC. it runs on the UE3 engine, which was prone to it, so any psuedo-open world or open world games on UE3 have the issue in varying degrees. Better specs and a more powerful system won't fix it, since it stems from the engine. UE3 basically is...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

To be clear, you don't need to manually end all processes in the Task Manager, you just need to ensure you don't have other generally heavy windows/programs and/or background processes (in the taskbar) running, and only IF you're experiencing sync error messages in TestUFO. If not, you can leave wh...

Re: FreeSync isn't working properly on my Gigabyte M28U

The stutter warning is not related to your display; TestUFO is sensitive to background process activity, so you effectively need everything closed other than the browser tab for the site. Chrome is recommended for the frame skipping test Also, to test for frame skipping, you have to take an actual ...
