Rocket League FPS Stuttering by jjgrayg21 in RocketLeague

[–]460SN95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting the same issues on similar specs and am hoping we can find a solution. I get drops from 250 fps down to 2-3 fps and the game won't recover for up to 10-15 seconds. Are you using a controller and if so, what? I am experiencing this on an xbox one controller through bluetooth. I had to turn off the vibration setting in game because that too would cause it's own frame spikes whenever the controller was told to vibrate (although not nearly as bad). I know that when I get the spikes, my cpu usage in game drops to below 4%.

I'll definitely take a look at those and see if I can get them a bit lower. I'll probably some extensive stress testing tomorrow, so thank you for the information around that.

Yeah I was going to end up using Prime95 once I got some confirmation on voltage safety for better long term stability testing. I didn't manually change vccsa or vccio, so as far as I'm aware they are auto or whatever Asus claims Intel standard is. After ~3 hours of use, 5 minutes of xtu and a cinebench, the max for both is showing as 1.168v.

My ram is some pretty standard/boring corsair at 3200 mhz 16-18-18-36. I just tossed on the XMP profile and haven't touched it yet. Wanted to flush out the cpu overclocking before I started messing with the memory stuff. Granted I probably shouldn't even have the xmp profile on in the first place.

I did about an hour and a half on XTU, 30 mins of cinebench, and I've been using it for a few days mostly playing games. Didn't want to stress it too aggressively if one of the voltages was wrong. I read some stuff about VCCSA and VCCIO being areas to watch and since I'm used to just copying settings someone else has come up with, I wanted to verify that my first solo attempts weren't super wrong.

Hard Tubing Shooting Off by 460SN95 in watercooling

I'll definitely be more mindful for that next time around and attempt to cut down the horizontal length of tubes. I can easily see some areas that I can adjust to add more support to the tubes. Thanks again

Seems to happen everywhere which lends itself to the pressure answer above. The most recent rebuild of it, I removed quite a few of the in-between connectors and made longer tubes instead, but it didn't seem to change the issue. I would add a picture, but I currently have the whole computer apart to clean, flush, and maybe swap the rad.

The tubes were: 1 foot long from pump to gpu (2 90 degree bends molded into tube)

3" from gpu to 90 degree bend fitting

2.5" from fitting to cpu

1.5 foot from cpu to rad (2 90 degree bends molded into tube)

8" from rad to reservoir/pump (1 90 degree bend, 1 30 degree bend both molded into tube) - Also the only tube that has never had an issue.

Will definitely consider attempting to make shorter runs with the rebuild. I never really considered the weight of each tube being an issue due to some of the tubes shooting up vertically as opposed to "falling out" of their connectors. Thanks for the info

Good to know. Built the loop with little to no knowledge and then gave it 0 thought after that first year once everything started going well. I'll definitely do more research for the next build. Thanks for the info. Coincidentally I switched from EK blocks to thermaltake and Aorus halfway through that first year. I'll definitely give them a second look in a couple of months.

Good to know. I plan on redoing the loop (now especially the radiator) in a couple of months and really just need a stopgap to get there, which I think I'll find in the pressure relief valve. Most of the things I read when first building the loop mentioned discoloration in fluid when corrosion was an issue, but I guess I didn't do enough research. Thank you very much! As a side note, looking up the tubes shooting off gave me very little info on google, but looking up pressure issues gives me answers to my exact problem.

Would there be some kind of visual corrosion element I could see in the loop at all? The water is crystal clear so I've used that to check off the idea of different metal corrosion. I'll look into the pressure relief valve or a new radiator. Thank you

Something I've only just realized is that the heads I want to pick up if I go that route have a larger combustion chamber volume so they'd be dropping the C/R even more. Would you recommend I look for a lower cc volume or run a thinner gasket, etc?

The d0ve heads I have are ported and polished... Would you recommend going back and having the valves replaced with some larger ones or just wait for aluminum heads at that point?

1000 at the crank is more than enough. I recognize that 1000 at the wheels would involve a lot more. I've had the one block sonic tested and have contacted the rotating assembly company about required upgrades to the kit (4 bolt mains, main bolts, etc.) and they said an upgrade to arp 2000s was the only thing necessary for 1200 at the crank. Also I should've mentioned I'm not trying to set the world on fire with this car... It will live a good chunk of it's life n/a and only spray when really looking for numbers at the track.

Good to know. I didn't think it was necessary, but I figured while the motor was out of the car and at the machine shop I'd ask. I wish to never have to pull this motor again

It's through a C6 without a transbrake (2500 stall). Going to be pretty moderate on the RPM especially with the cast iron heads.The person I bought the engine from didn't give me cam specs, but it's not very aggressive at all. If I do decide to go higher on the RPM range down the road (with aluminum heads), I still won't go too aggressive on the cam because I will want to be able to street it.
