My mobo doesnt support it and forgot to add it to the post. thanks!

Yes actually shoud've included it in the post i remember this post years ago and the first thing i tried with my most recent testing I did some quick testing right now and the settings the post provides it seems to be more choppy more often even if my min fps is ~100 and rare falls below 60 with 60 hertz monitor But something else that seems promising is disabling vsync in nvidia control panel and using riviatuner statistics server for fps limiter for now this is probably the best performance i've seen and it doesnt use 99% of my gpu Will also update later when i try the 560.94 driver thanks for the suggestions!

*edit -disabling internet for Vintage Story with a firewall rule /Disabling internet completely by plugging off my usb wifi catcher (no noticable improvemnt buts stil saying it if you want to test it) i mean disabling the internet with a firewall rule helped a lot but plugging off my usb wifi i didnt notice an improvement

Had a lot of issues with stuttering and small to medium fps drops every few seconds, but after a lot of searching the goog and limited testing i have compiled a list of the things ive done that helped or didnt help that much in hope that someone can use them and fix their stutter. The final conclusion i came upon is that my ddr3 ram with 1600mhz is the problem and has been for other games too (rdr2,cemu botw,ac odyssey)but i still have hope for a software fix ᵖˡᶻ ᵍᵒᵈ My machine GTX 980 ti i7 4790k 16gb DDR3 ram 1600mhz ~500mb/s write/read ssd mobo b85m-g The testing I did on a vanilla 1.19.8 instance on a fully fresh windows 10 pro system debloated extra chris titus tool and O & O shut up and a few settings like backround apps and some services turned off like aljoyn router service,windows indexing, work folder... and uninstalling bloatware that means no Steam no Geforce experience no Discord no anything only Microsoft edge and Vintage Story and Rivia tuner statistics server Programs like Xbox overlay and Steam might also be causing stutter but I havent tested those So the things which improved my fps the most is -disabling internet for Vintage Story with a firewall rule helped the most -Disabling internet completely by plugging off my usb wifi catcher (no noticable improvemnt buts stil saying it if you want to test it) -disabling Windows defender real time protection helped the most and the others like cloud delivered protection, tamper protection and automatic sample submission didnt have a noticable improvemnt -turning off threaded optimization in NVIDIA control panel -In game Vsync Steep with unlimited fps limiter (you might also want to try normal ingame vsync with fps limiter to 15fps and unlimited) Settings that didnt help but also didnt make it worse -ultimate performance profile (added with chris titus tool) no noticable dif -high performance in settings/graphics settings no noticable dif -windows defender exclusion no diff -disconnecting all other usbs except keyboard and mouse (for me being my controller and a wifi catcher) no noticable diff -overclocked my cpu from my bios to 4.5 ghz no diff -open to lan kind of helped but not sure if it even does something since im offline and cant test server without the internet -task manager high priority no diff -optimize for compute performnace nvidia kinda better? to no diff -disable full screen optimization by right clicking/ properties and going to compatability seemed to help with graph Down here are the mixed results I want to emphasize again that i did not do extensive testing -riviatuner statistics server best graph but feels choppy -no ram optimize config maybe helps/ no dif feels choppier https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/15208-fix-for-garbage-collection-pauses/ -maximized borderless seemed to help with the graph but feel more choppy??? -run as Vintage Story as admin seemed to help with the graph but feel more choppy??? settings that made the stuttering worse Threaded optimization on/auto worse -nvidia control panel vsync/fast/adaptive worse -nvidia control panel vsync and ingame vsync worse -low latency worse -low latency ultra maybe worse -tripple buffering worse -game mode off worse Some other outside things that i have tried or heard about -hardware accelerated gpu scheduling on off (newer GPUs) not available for me -try spectre and system meltdown disable (older CPUs) no difference https://www.grc.com/inspectre.htm -try msi mode no difference https://www.reddit.com/r/OptimizedGaming/comments/107blhi/msi_mode_on_gpus/ Cracked vintage story? (haven't tested) -enabling xmp from bios (not supported for me ) Some other things i didnt need to test or have already done cleared your DirectX cache clean install of your GPU's latest driver Running a local server not from LAN (if you have tested with no internet and it doesnt help) Current settings I run Nvidia control panel Optimize for compute performance power managament prefer maximum performance Threaded optimization off high performance in settings/graphics settings Firewall Vintage story internet Disable Windows defender real time protection Disable fullscreen optimization Task manager priority high open to lan My Vintage Story settings during testing 128 block view distance AO smoothlight Fxaa SSAO medium Shadows low Particles 36% Dynamic lights 1 Resolution 75% (preference) Full Screen Fps limiter - unlimited Vsyn on Steep Occlusion cullng Chunk upload rate limiter 3 If anyone has other suggestions for me please do tell.
