As I think now the whole forum will know xD , I had big problems with my GTX960 , before stuttering and low performance, then only low performance , then problems of GPU usage, and now after all these serious problems are gone i seem to have arrived at the last step xD,

My problem is that:
I get the micro-stuttering (short-term) and normal stuttering for other games i've get this in my gameplay on game like Minecraft but also simply during PC normal usage for example to watch videos on Youtube, i tried to use LatencyMoon to check the results and other tools, everything results seems to be perfect.. Guys have any advice? micro-stuttering (lasting only a few milliseconds) but are noted as often happens and Normal stuttering appears with about 1 seconds duration 
(The stuttering hits audio and video)

------------------------------------------------------------------------ --OTHER INFORMATION--------------------------------------------------------------------------When I had windows 7 games had absolutley very very low performance but no stuttering,On Windows 10 the same thing,but after a DDU and have installed the latest version of the drivers now performances have increased exponentially, but I have a lot of stuttering. :(

960 2GB or 4GB?

What is your VRAM usage when stuttering occurs? As in, if you have a 2GB card and are seeing 2GB or more in use, you need to lower graphics settings because your computer has to load textures from your system RAM, which causes "stuttering."

That mine craft test that shows your hard drive in use - that could very well mean that your hard drive is being queried to load up new textures for the game, and is the cause of the "stuttering." You may need to find updated SATA drivers for your motherboard, or just get a SSD, to mitigate the slow texture load.

If you installed Geforce Experience, uninstall that junk in safe mode with DDU. Install the latest drivers after a reboot, and select cuatom install and install only PhysX and the Driver.

Lastly, lower your settings. Lower them to minimum. Does the "stuttering" stop? If so, slowly, one setting at a time, raise settings for each game to the point that it doesn't stutter but looks better - be mindful that different areas in games can use more video memory, and if you hit 2GB you will get "stuttering" because the system has to load texture memory into the slower system RAM.

BO3 Disastrous stuttering (My frame rate is 50-60FPS all at high+ X2 Filmic SMAA and Dynamic motion blur) hard stuttering

BO3 Disastrous stuttering (My frame rate is 50-60FPS all at high+ X2 Filmic SMAA and Dynamic motion blur) hard stuttering

Motion blur is a hard hit to performance. I disable it in all of my games especially Multi-player games since it is only visible to me. Give that a try and see if you have any improvement.

thanks for your reply , now I try

OK, making progress. I would change the X2 Filmic SMAA to ' 4X MSAA'. That Filmic setting is a huge performance hit and little is known about it. See post #2 here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2363988/filmic-smaa.html
I use 4X MSAA in all of my games with Anisotropic Filtering at 16X. That should give you a nice clear image.

Little up :(

The stuttering seems to have disappeared with FXAA in this game,but in the other? I'll let you know if it will reappear during the game progresses 
PS: The game look crap, how to improve AA?, Why in other game stuttering appear?

Zuhl3156
Stuttering is usally caused by a graphics setting that uses more VRAM than what your video board has. Remember you only have 2 GB to work with.

I do not think minecraft use 2gb of vram, firewatch use only 1700mb and stutter and fc3 blood dragon 700mb but stutter :( why?
PS: is possible to improve AA of BO3? :(

Zuhl3156
There is a whole chart of different AA settings for BO3 and how much each will impact performance. Just start at the bottom until you get a nice looking screen without stuttering. Do the same for each game you play. I never played any of these games. BO2 was the last I played. A member who plays these other games and is familiar with the problems they can have might be able to give you better suggestions or know how to fix it right away. Turn 'Shadows' down to low or medium for one.

You're great! thanks man, now i start to  try this with all games :D. but this is impossible on minecraft, why stutter?

Zuhl3156
Here is a 'fix' for Minecraft. I hope you don't have any problems with the instructions:  http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/support/unmodified-minecraft-client/2489436-potential-fix-minecraft-pc-on-windows-10-severe
It seemed a little compicated to me as I have never done anything like that before.

goodbye stuttering! you're so great G-R-E-A-T!
Only few orange spikes when loading the world but are very short orange spikes, and unnoticiable
Thank you! :D
 
 

Bad news , unfortunately with the game progresses the stuttering persists, I also just tried to make another DDU , nothing changed, still the same, if I disable the k -boost the use of the GPU continues to fluctuate , there was a period when the stuttering stopped but I had low prestazioni..now I would simply use my card :(

In all games writed in the post + gta v but no stuttering in Minecraft

How to ssd only for os can solve the Problem?

How to ssd only for os can solve the Problem?

Yes, you can use the ssd for your os/games.
 

EnigmaTon
Ps:
I've another SATA 2 160GB HDD, is time to try it before of ssd?

Yes.

You could always buy a smaller ssd and only install the games onto it.
