im literally losing my mind here quick sanity check before i start reinstalling things. In an open-world game Ive been playing, the FPS counter sits comfortably high, yet the experience is full of micro-hitches: short freezes when effects fire for teh first time, when i enter towns, sometimes just when panning the camera.
its worst in the first hour of a session and seems to calm down later, which makes me think its not purely a hardware problem, is there a better way to measure this than the average FPS number?? and is there anything I can actually do about it?? im about to throw this thing out the window lol
