    Looks like the physics thread is completely gone for a couple of seconds while the graphics thread is unaffected. With an i7 CPU the first thing that comes into my mind is to deactivate SMT/Hyperthreading in BIOS (physics thread runs on a virtual core?).

    I still have stuttering problems with this build. In general is better than 930 but in some tracks and with some cars it's not sim racing, it's sim guessing, you don't know what the car is doing because you receive so few feedback that it's like an arcade machine. Impossible to improve if you don't know what's going on.

    I get 220 FPS but it's like be driving in a bad dream.

    Total frustration.

    I have Intel (R) HT Technology = Disabled. XD Bit Capability, Speedstep Tech and C state tech are all enabled

    I'd also disable Speedstep - just in case. Have also disabled thermal throttling.

    Edit #3 - Looks like I'm good now or at least at Malaysia which is a good start to help the process of elimination. I'll leave the below in case helpful for later reference but not needed unless something else turns up so I am going to gray it out for now...

    Thanks. I will do that.

    Also, I decided to re-install Win 7 since it had been a while and system getting cluttered and now performance is TERRIBLE.

    Prior to Win 7 re-install was running everything maxed with 29 AI and the above was only problem I had.

    Now it seems I can't maintain 60 FPS even with much lower settings :(

    Here is exactly what I have done...

    Fresh Win 7 install

    Fresh rF2 install + validated ; Only content installed (from rF2 UI) = Spark Historics and South Shore track ; No plug-ins installed

    No other software installed other than Chrome

    GTX 760 ; Nvidia 341.44

    Installed afterburner and noticed GPU utilization dropping with FPS drop :(:(:(

    Afterburner log ==> View attachment 16454

    Any ideas? Many thanks in advance.

    Edit - I forgot to mention that Google search mainly turned up temperature problems, which I didn't see and game bugs.

    Edit #2 - Just tried Malaysia North and MUCH BETTER so no idea what happened to South Shore as it performed beautifully before Win 7 re-install? I am going to check Malaysia full now just to make sure...

    Hello speak no English 'm here for like much of the simulator and the ISI , well do not understand cuz so few clues and q from 2011, but already there was not to have more? cade Spa , Suzuka , Monza ( I satisfy myself with only one of them already q simulator has features that no one else has ...
    Another thing because so much delay to clean up the rain of the simulator due to bringing many pro RF2

    ok sou brasileiro tentei me expressar pelo fato de gostar muito do trabalho da ISI
    Qual a dificuldade de se ter pistas como Monza, Susuka, Spa sendo q outros simuladores conseguem muito mais rápido, porque a ISI tem tanta dificuldade em lançar pistas q é só o que falta aliada a melhorias na chuva pra se tornar o melhor simulador e aumentar consilderavelmente as vendas...
    Porque tanta dificuldade em arrumar esses problemas de spray entrando dentro do cockpit, poeira... falta de gotas no vidro, capacete
    Será que a ISI não percebe q com isso fariam muito mais sucesso e venderiam muito mais?

    Na minha opinião é uma mistura de número de pessoas empregadas com o custo associado ou de obter a licensa, ou de obter as informações detalhadas dos circuitos. Infelizmente as pistas que se vêem por aí são conversões de outros jogos (como rF1, F1 2013/etc, NFS Shift) mas não super fielmente criadas originalmente, então as conversões sempre serão de qualidade bem inferior aos circuitos oficiais ou certos mods.

    Sobre isso de spray e a chuva, como demonstrado em fotos no fim de 2010, aí não sei, é de programação e complexidade e até número de pessoas disponíveis. Eu adoraria saber por que os famosos "wip dev shots" eram de qualidade absurdamente boa e o que temos não chega perto. Talvez eles percebam, talvez não, mas não se pode crescer sempre com política de contenção de custos. O negócio é ficar na torcida que o jogo continue sendo desenvolvido e recebendo apoio até pelo menos 2018 ou até 2020.

    I get the same thing on W8 everything runs as good or better except rF2.

    If it was not for that I would have gone W8 fulltime.

    Never tried it without Afterburner though, mmmm might investigate W8 with the new drivers.

    Rainy day, no one online, so it is either a fresh W8 test or pCARS offline and simulate real weather outside...................... lmao

    W7 using my image or a fresh C drive I can get same fps every time but W8 has me stuffed.

    What is strange is that W8 rF2 has better fps in pits then W7 but when I go to track it suddenly drops 20/30fps and looks and feels slightly laggy.

    verdade Guimengo obrigado pela resposta acredito q seja isso mesmo... embora acho que a ISI poderia arriscar mais tentar crescer eles tem o mais complexo simulador mas não consegue conteúdo e nem finalizar coisas que eles ja demonstraram que tem como aquele vídeo de 2011 da chuva com spray gotas de água é uma pena, temos muitas conversões de qualidade acho até superiores as do rF1 não sei sua opinião por isso me contentaria com algumas outras da ISI ja que a comunidade de modders do rF2 é forte https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzWNZcCIYks

    Eu acho que ta ficando cada vez melhor como Simulador, os enfeites são apenas detahes.
    E agora com uma gtx 970 então, ta tudo no máximo e ótimos fps .Não posso reclamar.
    PS: ainda estou esperando os Mavericks;)

    Sim, detalhes mas não podemos deixar de exigir/esperar por um simulador diligente em todos os aspectos que podem impactar a experiência, né? ;) :p

    Obrigado cumprimento da comunidade Brasileira e pelas pistas que faz, parabéns!

    de fato detalhes não importam como gotas... e o simulador nunca evoluiu tanto mas realmente acho q poderia ter um pouco mais de pistas ja disponíveis, mas enfim, faço questão de esperar pela competência da isi
    obs: agora água entrando dentro do cockpit rsrs ja é bem irreal concordam?

    I noticed that the rims looks different now. On previous build the rims are illuminated very nice. You were able to see it with the Gt vette for example at tiger moth r1 very nice. Now with the same car & track, the rims aren't (really) illuminated. They look a bit boring and flat. Maybe the rimshader must be changed because of the new tonemapper? Did everyone noticed this,too?
