is there some specific combination of hardware/settings the microstutter is/was happeninng?

I have a 3090, gsync monitor (120 Hz), vsync and ultralow-latency on in nvcpl, and vsync off in games. TBH I haven't noticed stutters.

Great if it is fixed for others, and I'm still going to take the hotfix driver for a spin

I exerienced the stutter for years and ended up buying a 144 Hz monitor just to get rid of it. It's much less noticeable at higher frequencies, which is most likely why you never noticed.

Or they just never had stuttering unless the game was messed up.

Do we happen to know what version of the driver introduced the issue?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Great!

That's great, could they fix 4090's literally starving themselves of power and hard crashing unless "Power management mode" is set to "prefer maximum performance?"

This has been an issue since launch. It isn't even the default setting!
