When you choose "Vulkan" in cs2 DirectX is not involved. But the problem is the same, decision ;)?

Strange? I double checked and it appears disabled for me and is yielding good results. Not perfect mouse movement, but better tracking along with less stuttering in general in all games.

Tested on fortnite, overwatch, the finals, bloodborne, valorant, cod and even diablo is stuttering less.

Not sure, maybe built-in accel for vulkan too? Also is your problem the same as mine or similar?

Mine presented with inaccurate mouse and lots of frame skips and stutters, even with high frame rates + capped below monitor refresh etc.

Download DPC Latency Checker, run it in the background and tell me if the frame skipping/stutter is solved.

No problemo, how's this?

EDIT: Included second photo of in-game. It plays smoothly, aside from the odd network stutter when in over-populated areas, e.g. legion event/ World boss.

There are plenty of sources and versions, might be the case. Could you share your link for the tool?

The file appearing in my downloads folder is titled "directxcp-9.0c", I don't have the source of the download as my browser deletes history on exiting. I hope that helps, if not I can dive deeper the find out the exact source.

So does it make your gaming smoother? Also, you are one lucky dude. DPC Checker for me is always yellow, I don't ever see it green. What are your specs?

Yup, I tried ver.8 before, thanks)
Now dxdiag is showing "disabled" for DirectDraw, but only "Partially" for Direct3D, huh.

\\Edit: nvm, I needed DirectPlay it seems. After that I enabled acceleration and disabled it again, all "disabled" now, sweet. Hope it does something good for me)

Yes, tested in multiple games training areas (to avoid any potential matchmaking latencies when testing) and also in actual games. For me when accel is disabled I get hardly any hitching in games where it used to be very bad especially, e.g. Fortnite was unplayable for me until recently due to constant stuttering, especially when falling from the bus or in large areas.


My specs are;

i9 9900kf, 3600mhz Corsair vengeance, 4070 wind force OC, msi z390-A pro.
Previously had the asus rog strix z390, but swapped to test the theory of ‘does smoother mouse in bios translate to in OS smoothness”.
