Everything gets to the point of freezing, including sound. With BF4 I would stutter for about 30-45 seconds and then I'd be right back in game. With BF1, 99% of the time, I'm getting booted out of the server. Here's my system ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s AMD FX-8320 Liquid Cooled nVidia GeForce GTX 970 16Gb DDR3 Ram During gaming, my RAM shows that I'm using like 40% and my temps are staying cool. All my drivers are up to date on everything!! It's quite annoying.. anyone have ANY ideas? Any help is appreciated! Thanks, Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Computer or 2/. Internet, i.e. does this only happen to gaming online or does it happen offline, the comments on the modem may be valid and you may want to check firmware/software. If computer the mostly likely culprits are the ram or the video card, if you can swap these out then fine, if not then it becomes a lot more difficult, if online then try turning off background programmes one by one. I had this years ago when the ram on my bang up to date video card was incompatible with the motherboard, fixed by a (very dangerous in those days) motherboard flash.

Do you have DX12 turned on? Turn it off in video settings, advanced. How much video ram to you have? 3 GB? You can try the memory limiter setting. Try turning down some of the other settings. Shadows, light effects, full screen AA, etc. Ask in team speak for a thorough list of everything you can try, and then let the next person answer with an even longer and somewhat conflicting list of other things to do!

I like to put things in simple terms initially, your picture is stuttering, so there is a bottleneck somewhere, or interference, stopping the information flowing correctly and fast enough to your picture. Now this could be a number of things,start with the programme itself then progress to the computers software and last of all the hardware. If you are unsure of what you are doing, especially if interfering with the OS or hardware then do not do it, better safe than sorry, do not touch the bios unless you are absolutely confident in what you are doing, remember one thing at a time if that doesn't work put it back.

Simple test, play an older less graphics intensive game, then play your latest games, bet you don't get chopping with first ones - solution faster internet speeds if you can.

Get your motherboard manual and find out if it accepts that memory spec i.e. size,speed and frequency 2/. There will be a bit in the manual that tells you what is accepted in each memory slot, make sure you know the slot numbers from the diagram 3/. It will tell you what the settings should be in the bios, hopefully auto is selected. 4/. It may be that your previous memory was configured dual channel and these sticks won't work dual channel, especially for two pairs Now this is a fairly complicated subject and some level of expertise is needed but not beyond anyone who treads carefully, for now only use two MATCHING sticks of memory in the slots recommended in the manual, come back after you've done this, take two sticks out. Memory gives numerous random problems and others will nod their heads when I say this, it is possible that two motherboards the same one will accept, one will reject I've had it happen a couple of times.
