I use V-sync the same but i get stutters and also I'm running on SSD.

Seemed to work nicely for me, but it caused some weird blurryness when panning in freetrack. I tried altering my framerates in ft but it didn't solve the issue. I won't use it for now but it does show promise.

Someone posted this link already, if you read it all it explains everything well. Also explains why it should be used along side Vsync. When you read it you will understand how Vsync only caps the higher rate and it is this fluctuation between higher and lower rates that causes the stutters. Thats why it's best to limit the FPS to around the lowest to use less resources and gain a steady FPS with no spikes. No point having it jump from say 30 to 60 FPS because you get stutter.. Much better to have a constant 30 FPS in all situations. I get between 40 and 60 FPS and I have my FPS limiter set at 39 FPS because that is my lowest FPS.

Any of you Nvidia card guys ever use Nvidia Inspector for setting your graphics card's settings?
The later Nvidia drivers include a frame rate limiter, and you can access it using Nvidia Inspector to set your driver preferences.
I have not tried it with CLOD yet, as I am pretty much in a holding patttern waiting for more of an official patch, however I have used it with other sims, namely FSX, with good results.

As with everything in this patch, it worked one session and then did nothing the next. I even got the full version on bandicam and it still fails to stop my stutters, I think now the first attempt was just placebo.

Try my solution, if your machine allows it:



I have the latest beta nVidia drivers, with CSAA 16x. And also Custom Skins off in the Network settings.

Cheers!

Tested the FPS limiter with some pilots of my squadron.
ALL reported reducing stutters.

Thx

What are your specs and did you use the framerates limited on the NVIDIA drivers or the one the OP posted?

My specs in sig. No frame rate limiters, neither nVidia or the one of the OP. BTW I just tested it for an hour, so it's not conclusive at all. But I didn't have stutters, which were quite frequent before even in free flight/high alt, like every 5-10 minutes.

Cheers!
