PC Specs:
Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Intel Z170
GeForce GTX 1080 Asus Turbo (Driver 388.00, (NOT overclocked)
i7-6700k @ 4GHZ (NOT overclocked)
16GB G.Skill RipJaws DDR4-3200 Dual Kit (Running with XMP Profile)
BenQ XL2430T - 24 Zoll (144 Hz) over DVI + Second display Elgato HD60 Pro over hdmi (60 Hz)
System on Samsung SSD 840
Game on Samsung SSD 850 EVO
Windows 10 (1709)
Internet comes from a Fritz!Box 7360 with automated port forwarding enabled
Game Info:
Steam version of the game. (Steam overlay disabled though)
Game settings are all on low/off, but medium textures and
Game running in true fullscreen mode
Display (ingame and windows) running on 144hz (second not running screen is on 60hz)
FOV of 90
Ping is usually between 30 to 80 ms
Connection / NAT type is always open
Issue:
I get occasional FPS drops, meaning: Game runs normally at about 100 to 200 fps, then suddenly begins to stutter for a fracture of a second, shows the update rate icon that was introduced with the latest patch and right after runs normally again. With the recent patches, maybe also Windows / Nvidia updates, this happens way more frequently than before. (Playing casual and ranked matches)
What I tried so far:
* Re-installing windows+ (Using media creation tool to make 1709 usb stick and install only necessary drivers, such as chipset, nvdia drivers + game)
* Running game without having Bitdefender installed / using normal enabled windows defender
* Turning off steam overlay
* Turning off uplay overlay
* Unplugging unneeded devices (Xbox one controller, external harddrives, etc)
* Installing game on other harddrives
* Setting higher graphic settings (results in less fps, but same stutters)
* Turning off pagefile
* Swapping bios settings (enabling/disabling XMP profile and Asus optimized settings)
* Looking on forums that are saying that Windows 10 creators update causes stutters on games like bf1, but im not sure if this is the same issue
* Playing with only one monitor / not streaming etc
Other info:
When I am playing with friends with completely different PC setups, we sometimes experience the same stutters at the same moments, but not all of the time. (Maybe when we are standing close to each other or see the same effects / hear the same sound?)I'm not experiencing this kind of stutters in other multiplayer or singleplayer games and seriously dont know anymore what to do.
While digging the internet for this issue, I have sometimes seen this on very old threads before, but it never was really resolved in any cases, so i'm asking here again for my very own problem with this. I don't know if the servers can cause heavy FPS drops still, which would make sense as we sometimes get the same stutters, or if the fault is in the client. I hope ubisoft is tracking whenever the new "update rate icon" appears for players and looks into this, if this is a major issue. Any help for fixing this now would be very much appreciated.
