Utility to set PCI Latency and possibly prevent game stutter or improve FPS This tweak is an important one, and one well worth checking into. Apparently, newer high-end video cards hog PCI latency for no known reason. This makes other components wait for access and causes stutters and thus lower frame rates. If you adjust the latency this might benefit you, users are reporting big improvements. You can download this small utility program that allows you set your PCI latency. Adjust the PCI latency from for example 248 to 64, and there's a very good chance of stutter free performance & sound. STEP 1. open the pci latency tool STEP 2. Rightclick on your graphics card and click change setting(s) STEP 3. change to desired setting and hit ok Step 4. click settings and select apply at startup so it has a tick next to it STEP 5. click settings and select save so everything you have just done is saved STEP 6. right click on your video card and click quickset latency (if you want to set it straight away).
