2080Ti Micro Stutter, any help appreciated

[Dazza b]

Hi Guys

I purchased a Gigabyte Aorus 2080ti Waterforce from Overclockers last Friday(great service by overclockers as usual) and what i am finding i am getting is micro stutter, just random jerky stops for not even a second and its getting really annoying.

I was trying out Watchdogs 1 last night and this was happening maybe every few minutes or so , even when i tried heaven benchmark it would micro stutter as well, even though i would have MSI afterburner and Riva tuner running and they would be showing 80-90 FPS.

i uninstalled the Nvidia drivers and used DDU to completely remove the drivers , then freshly installed the new drivers and the issue still occurs.

if worse comes to the worse ill RMA it

I know you guys on this forum know your stuff , so could anyone give me advice how to solve this issue ?

(also i am at work and i am currently getting GTA 5 and FF15 installed so i can test when i get home)

Have you looked at windows defender, somethimes that causes issues if it runs during gaming.

You mention using afterburner and rivatuner, I had a very similar stuttering when using gpu tweak 2's OSD to display frame rate etc. Turned it off and no stuttering
