Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

Update so far: have not had a single stutter attack since the BIOS flash, however there is still an occasional hiccup, just like a single frame-skip and audio pop that I sometimes notice, not sure if that's still an fTPU issue or actual DPC spikes this time. That seems to have been it, thanks...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

I saw that while I was on vacation last week, I just flashed it after coming home, had a lot of BSOD crashes on boot at the beginning but I think it may have had to do with bad RAM timings, I set some back to Auto where I wasn't sure and it's been running for 5 minutes so far at least, we'll see...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

I haven't had the chance to do it yet as I'm away this weekend. I also noticed the BIOS is still a beta version, I don't know how long they usually take with testing and official release, it's been out for two weeks already, I figured it might be less work to wait for the official version.

Yes that's pretty much it, but for me the stuttering is much faster, like maybe 10-20 times in one second, almost feels like everything is in slow motion and then suddenly it's back to normal.

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

That actually sounds very plausible, the reason I upgraded from a 1600x to a 3800x was because of the tpm module to make my PC windows 11 ready, and since then it's been having this problem. I updated the BIOS when I installed the new motherboard last month, but I'll flash the newest version and...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

I'll try it, however a few days ago a steam game I was playing alone caused the problem multiple times per session, without discord being on or having any other connections to other people (also no chat windows open) The problem also occasionally occurs while watching youtube videos (browser is...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

Is there no one who can help me figure this out? Could it be a hardware issue with the CPU itself or most likely a driver conflict? It continues to be an issue, and I just don't have the skills to be able to look through a trace and tell what is causing what...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

I've played a game for about 1.5 hours without any platforms like steam or ubisoft running, and without discord open, nothing has happened so far, but it's hard to tell. In another singleplayer game that ran over steam, it happened twice very briefly in 15 hours. It seems to happen much more...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

Ok, I'll try, I have to see if I can find something that will stress the computer without using any kind of internet dependent platforms like steam/Uplay/origin/discord. I have noticed that it seems to happen much less when I play a Singleplayer game on steam, without active network...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

I could only find "Steam Client Service" on that list, discord doesn't have an entry there. Discord was in autostart in the task manager however, but already deactivated. Those two are almost always present when this happens, because 90% of the time it's triggered while playing a game, only...

No, sadly that is exactly the problem, I'm not sure what exactly the cause is or if that's called dpc spikes, but the computer keeps having these stutter attacks and nothing has helped so far. You can clearly see it near the end of the trace of you look in DPC/ISR, it's like something happens...

Intermittent DPC spikes after CPU upgrade

Hi guys, I've been having a problem with my PC for the past couple months, and I've done everything I can to try and solve the problem myself, but nothing I've done has helped at all, so I'm coming to the experts for your wisdom to help me find out exactly what's going on here. Early February, I...
