Awesome thank you for the follow up report and glad it helped at least someone and good to know FreeSync works as well!

Cheers

I second the thanks for reposting your thread.  My sim has never been smoother!

Try setting Passive Waiting to OFF if you haven't already.  I'm finding it does generate slightly better FTV despite the 15% increase in main thread core loading that happens.  But that is not manifesting in stuttering which I was concerned about, from getting to close to main thread limited (which you can address by lowering the frame lock a bit).

Interestingly, the FPS I need to set is also 33 to get the bar and pie charts in CapFrameX looking the same as yours.  I can run at 60fps with some stutters, but just shows where you really need to set it.  No longer do I get long pauses or stutters on final!

As you said, 33 FPS with consistent FTVs is very smooth indeed and not very different to the 60fps I can run at with stuttery performance.
