Just built a new computer and am getting what I would call "Micro stutters" now when I play the game, meaning my game is stuttering not to the point I can't play, but bad enough it is very hard to lead shots during space combat, and it is overall an unsmooth experience. This began for me during 3.16(when I built my new computer), and is still persisting into 3.17. For reference my old PC which I had no problems with was rocking an I7 processor and a 1080 graphics card. My new build is: 12th gen I9- 12900kf, 3187mhz, 16 cores ASUS Prime Z690-p EVGA Geforce RTX 3080 32 GB DDR5 5200 MHz Ram Samsung 870 EVO 1TB I've tried some of the normal fixes, such as; verifying files, reinstalling the game, setting it to a high priority task, making sure drivers are updated, with no success. I'll admit I ain't super tech savvy, so if anyone has any idea please feel free to share, as I said I can play it in it's current state, it just isn't fun to play it... EDIT: Thanks to those who suggested disabling E-cores, literally fixed all my problems, night and day difference in performance.
