Everything is fine for about an hour or so and then fps tanks to the 10 fps mark. It lasts approx. 20-30 seconds and after that fps goes back to normal. Temperatures are fine. At first I thought it might be temperature related, since it only happens after a longer period of time and started monitoring temps but nothing out of ordinary.

Take a look at this video

(not mine, but same thing happens). It is very annoying to say the least. It doesn’t matter what settings you use, dx11 or dx12, gpu memory restriction on/off the problem persists.

The guy claims that after turning HPET off in BIOS fixed the problem, however, I don’t have this option in my mobo’s bios (ASUS B350 PRIME PLUS). Tried to disable it in Windows but to no avail.

Im using Windows 10 Creators Update, game mode, xbox dvr off.

Hi,  
I had the same thing happening. Turns out it was superfetch service. So try to turnit off from services.msc.

Exactly the same and turning it off solved my issue.

Disabled superfetch, so far so good. It needs more testing though.

Well, I’m pretty sure disabling superfetch fixed those horrible fps drops for me.  
Those who installed the game on a SSD don’t encounter this problem because superfetch is not enabled by default.

Thank you guys for the tip. 😉

HPET is an ‘issue’ again ? Thought that crap had gone since W 8.1. Was all set to splash some dough on Ryzen but not now.

Are the latest mobo,s shipping with a current bios ? Or are you having to flash them to bring them upto date ?

Was there any noticeable difference between the two?

It allowed me to increase ram clock speed without having stability issues

I also have no issues on Ryzen on a CH6 motherboard on the latest BIOS.

Funny enough, my Ram is less stable on the new Agesa code. Currently at 2933 CL18 but nopes out at anything over 2667 with the new update.

Am I right in saying ryzen likes faster ram as possible ? (I know generally that’s a given on any system but doesn’t ryzen need pretty fast ram)

I think it benefits more than an equivalent intel system, but until the latest Agesa update you couldnt even choose anything higher than 3200 IIRC. Let alone have it run stable without having Samsung Chips. The sweetspot is still around the 3000 range though.

Definitely still some polishing up to do on the Ryzen platform then .

Actually feels pretty fleshed out right now. Like I said until the last update, but that update has probably dropped for most boards, atleast as a beta branch.  
Anything above 3200 is well in the area of diminishing returns, and more of an e-pen thing, rather than necessary.

I think ryzen is maybe to ahead of the curve at the present moment for game developers anyway ,I really expect them to come good when devs start making games for all those extra cores ,I think maybe for outright speed for games Intel still has the ball with 4 and 8 core cpu’s

Ryzen isnt just the 8 cores though. The sweetspot for gaming actually is the 6 core modell. And the selling point is the price and not absolute speed. While Intel still has the ball on best IPC, Skylake X seems massively rushed and is struggling in some cases just like Ryzen has been.
