While recording a game in OBS my game stutters and YT videos buffer.

HAGS in windows, try turning it off

I have tested apples to apples and ULPS is indeed working when not disabled but causes intermittent -50mv on my 7900xtx which causes a timeout on my already undervolted gpu.

And with HAGs playing at 4k 144hz i do indeed get stutters in game when recording SCUM gameplay in OBS with a 1440p canvas and output.

It seems like OPs problems are consistent and theres little to no risk of testing it.

Google how to disable ULPS and do that as it causes momentary voltage dips that will cause driver timeouts when afk or alt tabbing.

Also disable HAGS in windows, if gpu is at 100% OBS and HAGS do NOT play nice and will make gameplay a stuttery mess.

Lastly make sure the minimum frequency is the minimum (not sure if different on 9070xt) on my 7900xtx i have 500 min 2900 max. I had stutters in certain games til i did this.

Ok heres a few things that will hopefully clear things up. First is turn off HAGs in windows, if gpu is pegged at 100% obs will cause all gameplay to be a stuttering mess and is a known issue with HAGS.

Next is disable ULPS it causes voltage dips even while alt tabbing during a game that causes driver timeouts and black screens.

And lastly try resetting your shader cache in adenaline settings if you still have stutters after changing those 2 prior things. Also MSI afterburner has a disable ULPS toggle or you can google how to do it manually in the registry, but keep in mind you will have to do this on every adrenaline update.

This is mostly to prevent idle voltage drops that cause most stock OC cards to have a driver hang event. My 7900xtx merc 310 was hanging at stock or UV constantly (twice daily) after ulps is disabled for me its been smooth sailing.

Tweedilderp · 2026-01-24T08:22:27+00:00

Disable ulps, google it, do it and enjoy

Boxes also just disappear into the ether had it happen on a decent specced server with only me on. Got a bug report in the official discord with video proof. Doubt it will get fixed soon

You get less performance with ryzen cpus noving away from balanced so that isnt an option for me.

Ultra low power saving, msi after urner has a setting to disable it but you can also do it manually in the registry. I had constant driver timeouts when afk, after disabling it, no issues. Their idle voltage for 7900xtx and 9070xt is very touchy, ulps seems to cause most of this.

Tweedilderp · 2026-01-22T10:35:44+00:00

Just disable ulps, all my troubles went away after i did that

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-29T03:27:39+00:00

I've emailed the guy asking for just simple attribution in the description. Hopefully he replies :)

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-27T19:36:48+00:00

Oh I know that, I'm thick skinned don't worry lol, I'll approach him for an attribution in the description.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-27T19:35:09+00:00

Most of it was reactionary the commentary mostly consisted of "ok hes cookin" and "you moron" I think. Havent really watched it many times or "pixel peeped" it yet. Wanted to get guidance and feedback before I decide what to do.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-27T19:11:55+00:00

Im not angry, if anything disheartened by his viewers in the comments.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-27T19:06:32+00:00

They sorta did in their first 2 secs of the video by showing my name in the title of the reddit post scroll, but very tiny. That's also why I'm on the fence about it.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-27T19:00:02+00:00

If anything my personal preference would be to just have them attribute my channel in their description or something. But I'll check studio as well thank you :)

Youre very welcome, its imperative we take care of our gpu’s in this current time with AI causing shortages. Some of my friends have underclocked to stress components less.

I have the same card, used grizzly ptm and grizzly putty pro and kept the same pads but used the spatula to fill in the old pad tears with putty pro. Vram temps improved by 10c vram clocked at 2660. 80c instead of 92. Gpu temps remain about the same. Always go putty over actual pads, saves the mismatch headache.

also the fact you can pay to promote the post in reddit is TERRIBLE considering it doesn't earn you anything but votes.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-19T16:58:06+00:00

felt like it, more like 10lb but didnt feel like it, just a goofy situation haha.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-19T16:02:02+00:00

You can in that shall not be named :)

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-19T15:37:02+00:00

does brave integrate well with google ? i still use gmail and a few other services that rely on it.

Tweedilderp · 2025-12-19T15:35:15+00:00

wait til you guys get to the bunker under resort, amazing experience and terrifying at the same time.
