Radeon Pro: Key setting to combat microstuttering

[UNhooked]

Can anyone tell me what key settings should I be looking at to minimize micro stuttering in Radeon Pro.

Looking on the web it seems the Dynamic V-sync along with Double Sync seems to do the trick.

I was hoping people wiser and more experienced than me could chime in on this.

People also claim using the framerate limiter to 1-2 fps below your monitor's refresh rate - 59fps for 60Hz monitors, 118fps for 120Hz monitors - plus force enabling vsync and triple buffering (all through RP) does the trick. Both methods only ever mitigated the problem for me, never corrected it fully/satisfactorily, but other swear by it (sometimes evangelically...)

Also, you need to be using the Preview version of RP

You may have to lower it below your refresh rate, if you cannot maintain your refresh rate in FPS. The trick is to always hold back the GPU, so that they automatically space out frames. That means it has to limit to FPS to a number lower than you could get without it.

Frame limiting just moves the regulation to the CPU instead of on the GPU or its drivers. Radeon Pro with its frame limiter is likely introducing a delay at the present call where almost everything else happens. By not allowing those calls to happen at a higher than just below FPS rate the microstutter introduced by the GPU and its drivers is regulated. But setting it to 59 will introduce a 33ms frame there somewhere.

But it never solved the issue for me either, it mitigated it a bit but never solved enough for my GPUs to be in my opinion usable.

The new beta drivers help a ton.

How so? I think you mean the future prototype drivers. There seems to be a lot of confusion on the latest FCAT tests. The 13.5b beta drivers were the ones that were terrible in the reviews. It was a prototype driver that improved things a lot, but they aren't available yet.

Yes I think the prototype drivers are not available for download just yet unless someone leaks them
