NBA 2K16 PC Stuttering Collection Thread

[luda06]

No dice. The game stutters even with every visual setting on low or turned off. It provides a playable framerate, but there are random spikes.

Resolution: 1080p
GPU: GTX 960
CPU: Core i5 4430
RAM: 8GB DDR3
OS: Windows 10

I don't think its the game its your pc i have everything as high as it can go and i can run smooth as butter at 60fps maybe some of you need a better pc? or better vid card? because i have not had a problem with game yet except i lose the anouncers volume sometimes.

I can already see your problem your cpu is weak.

Yeah surely it's our pc systems the problem. That's why we can run every other game in 4k res maxed out...
If some of you can play the game without stuttering/lag doesn't mean it's optimized and should run for everyone. Also Leftos is already trying to address the problem and this means 2k is aware there's something wrong.

Based on what? I can max out phantom pain with no issues. I ran a check for bottlenecks. 2K16 uses 100% of three cores and less than half of the fourth. A core i5 at 3 Ghz is more than enough for 1080p gaming. I'd rather have someone who knows what they're talking about chime in to say the least.

Maxed 1080p w/o supersampling. Maybe it has to do with drivers? I have not updated mine in awhile. I'm on 353.62. Anyways I hope they iron out the issues for you guys.

There's a possibility the game behaves better with a specific older driver but I'm not willing to revert to older versions and it's not a good solution. I'm on 15.7 AMD, I'll try later the 15.8 driver but I'm 99% sure the stutter/lag will not be solved. I could try reverting back to 14.7, which was the NBA2k15 driver I think, but I'll lose all the driver optimizations for other games I own.
Also, anyone with AMD GPU and without lag problems what's your driver?

I'm doing MyGM using Simulcast Live. Not ideal but workable to build up some VC until the graphics issues are ironed out.
