I've recently encountered a bunch of inexplicable stutters while trying to capture footage on a different system way more powerful (7800X3D/4090) than the one I usually use for my videos (5800X3D/7900XTX). Same mods, same everything, I literally mirrored my cyberpunk folder on both systems but nope, that "god-tiered" combination couldn't seem to go for a second without some stutter despite locking FPS to 60 in RTSS, at gfx settings it should have no problems holding at 60fps. GPU usage was all over the place and it was a stuttery mess. I couldn't figure it out for days, then saw this fix.
Ngl I had massive doubts cos... cpu priority? It's a 7800X3D paired with a 4090, surely that wasn't gonna do anything right? Well... it definitely helped! Not everywhere, not perfectly, but it helped well enough to ease 3 days of confusion and frustration! So it isn't just for lower end pc's, works on beasts as well!
Thank you its working really well for me on my 2070 and i79700k. With the FSR3 mod I had had a 100 average with 140 peaks and with this added on I get 120 average driving and 130-150 on foot and made the combat noticeably smoother for me.
All I can say is Wow! I wasn't sure if this would work, but when I saw that you had such an easy uninstall option, I figured that it couldn't hurt to try it out. It works really well for me! Before installing this, I had constant stuttering in the music and it drove me mad, especially while in combat. This simple mod fixed that! Huge thumbs up for this one.
BTW-I almost never comment on mods, but I had to for this one! Well done!!!
This has made a very noticeable (and very good!) change for me. I'm using the FSR 3 mod and I was previously getting an average of 95-110 with peaks of 150 and dips to 54 FPS (yes, very sporadic) and I was having issues with micro stutters when entering and exiting vehicles and combat. Now I get an average of 100 FPS, peaks of 130, dips to 85 and stutters are FAR less frequent (basically non-existent). FPS changes are now much more gradual and natural for me and my FPS has been VERY stable and much more consistent after installing this (even though it really only does one thing). I highly recommend you download this mod if you are suffering from micro stutters or have a lower end PC. Thank you so much for the mod! :)
my specs btw: RTX 2070 Super (underclocked and boosted slightly), Intel 15 11400, 16GB ddr4 3600.
I was sceptical cuz i have a potato laptop with 1050ti (4GB) but somehow i got like +20 fps, I can finally enjoy combat in the game due to decent fps! Dont know what is this dark soursery but thant you so much!
I never thought I needed anything like this, gotta preem rig, but then I remembered I thought the same thing back in the day about Fallout New Vegas. And that Stutterhotfix changed my FNV game drastically for the better. So I gave this a try, and voila - even on this rig, smoother performance overall. Any such fix that improves on stability and performance is a good thing, no matter how strong a system you got. Simple, yet highly effective, Thanks for this, 10 outta 10. Endorsed.
Gang, this is what ChemBoy1 did for us, and I think this is killer. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\Cyberpunk2077.exe\PerfOptions] "CpuPriorityClass"=dword:00000003 This is no different than going to Task Manager and setting the CPU priority to High. What is different...YOU NO LONGER HAVE TO REPEATEDLY DO THAT! :o
Yo this actually worked for me! i5-9300H & GTX 1650 Asus Laptop. This script just basically applies "HIGH" CPU priority for Cyberpunk2077.exe, just the difference being that you don't have to manually do it as the script does it for you. Thanks a lot @ChemBoy1! I really needed this.
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work for me. I've done something similar with other games like Skyrim SE and Fallout 4, and the performance certainly doesn't get worse. In this case, it gets tangibly worse. Playing on Ultra with no ray tracing plus this registry edit gives me noticeably more stutters and slowdowns than playing on Ultra with Ultra ray tracing minus this registry edit. Again, not entirely sure what's going on here (I am not super-duper tech savvy), but I'm open to revisiting this at some point in the future.
Frankly, I'm just glad this is helping so many other people. I didn't "need" it to enjoy the game, but it seems like a lot of other people are finding their experience improved to the extent that this registry edit might be a genuine "need" for them going forward. So... great work, mod author!
Thank you for this. I noticed you posted the same registry edit for The Witcher 3 and Elden Ring. Is it okay to install all three of these at once, or should I only run one at a time for the game I'm playing?
