Strange micro-stutters in FPS while playing DayZ

[john_blund 1]

Hello there, and tahnks for taking the time to read this post, as I really love this game already, and I have no idea why my game is acting like this. I've already posted a thread on reddit about this, but since not everyone reads reddit, I'll post one here as well!

I've noticed that no matter what I do with the GFX options, I seem to get small FPS stutters while playing online, I'm talking every second or so, the game "stops" for half a second, then goes fine again, it's playable, but VERY annoying when in intense situations.

I have not tried playing any other mods or ARMA2 online yet, I've read somewhere that people think the stutters are from the debug monitor, is there any way to turn that off so I can try that?

The game runs -completely- smooth and awesome in singleplayer/bootcamp on everything on maximum graphics and 2000 visibility, so I don't think it's related to my specs, but I'll include them anyway!

My specs are;

1 MS Win7 Ultimate 64bit SP1

Intel Core i5 760 @ 2.8GHz

4GB DC DDR3 @ 662 MHz ( that's 1333 MHz I believe, becuase of DC) GeForce GTX 460 1GB

ASUSTeK P7p55d-e LX Motherboard

I doubt this has anything to do with my harddrive, but it's a Western Digital 1TB disk ( Green version )

What I have done inbefore posting this to get help without any success is as follows

I just came out from the map editor on Chernarus, I just flew a chopper through all the cities at non-fps stutter, completely smooth at everything maxed, with about 1000-1500 visiblity - If I bring this online on DayZ, I still get the stuttering.

I've done HDD check for read/write speeds, everything was okay, but not amazing speeds, shouldn't be the HDD speed.

Thanks so much for reading this, and I hope to get this FPS issue fixed, because this game... this game, I fucking love it.

The community over there is really friendly and have helped me loads in the past figuring out game and hardware related issues. :)

Thanks, just posted there and my post imploded when I tried to add some RPT files.

I'll keep refreshing this, my reddit post and their forums. Cheers!

I've noticed something new about this problem, if I press esc, I can see the game stuttering behind, but the mouse in the menu is not stuttering.

Not sure what this means though.
