Summary0000442: Micro stuttering with high end GPUs
DescriptionWhile playing, the game starts occasionally stutter as if the fps would drop down to ~20. The fps counter, however stays the same as when the gameplay is smooth.
This seems to happen randomly, regardless of the map or the amount of players and action on the server. Sometimes I have played ten minutes without problems when the problems suddenly kick in without anything changing in the game or on the server.

When I plug my display into my motherboard and set the CPU's iGPU (Intel HD4000) as the main GPU, I don't seem to have any fps problems whatsoever.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationPC specs:

CPU: Intel i5 3570k (with Intel's HD4000 graphics chip)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660
MB: Asus P8Z77-V LX
RAM: 8GB

I have/had same problem. My spec:

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 8gb Win 7 64'
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 5800 Series
Monitor: SyncMaster P2770H/P2770FH (Digital)

I tested every soldat config, updated my gpu drivers and tried different settings in Catalyst Control Center without fixing the problem. I even tried forcing Vsync and liit fps using other programs than soldat. It seamed that nomather what I did I could not set a stabile 60 fps (same as my monitor), when the fps dropped to 58 I would get stutters.

This was the only thing that helped me:

Righck soldat icon and choose xp compatability mode:

Then mess around with Vsync, Fps limit and high resolution timer. (having only Vsync on and play fullscreen works best for me)

Does this help?
