Reduce dropped frames has been attempted and I still have the same issues. I just reinstalled my pen display drivers and am still having the problem. Could this be tied to a video driver maybe?

Try this before beginning the next few steps.
Open your game directory and open the osu! config under your username and locate "Renderer" and test switching between "opengl" and "d3d". Make sure when you save it that osu! is not open and that the config is not set to read-only in the properties.
If that does not work then try to run the game in compatibility mode and see if that actually helps at all.
I've a feeling something else is causing it though and you very may well have to reinstall your graphics drivers with DDU.

Try these next.
Perhaps there is something open that is hogging resources, check if there is anything that seems to behaving unusually or irregular in Task Manager.
Can you let GPU-Z or MSI Afterburner run while playing osu!, and check if there is any irregular performance hiccups so I can isolate the issue.
You play on a multi monitor setup, this could be a potential cause in very niche cases.
If you have osu! installed within app data you could try moving it to another location on the drive or to another drive entirely.
Additionally you can also monitor the games render pipeline in the cutting edge build by pressing CTRL+F11 which I can also use to determine the issue.
Give me the performance.log in your osu directory too, please. Only after your game has "stuttered".
Change this setting in your control panel to "Single Display performance mode". I believe you can do this at a program specific level so you can do it for the osu!.exe and it should work. Click the image to enlarge it.Chalupa wrote:
My CPU is underclocked actually, and I have no additional antivirus installed.I do believe this may be tied to some combination of windows anniversary update and the nvidia drivers interacting poorly. I have discovered that if I disconnect my top most monitor (a 4K display at 60HZ) that all performance issues disappear. This was not previously an issue, leading me to believe that drivers must be the culprit as again, this is a clean windows instillation, and this issue did not previously exist. I do not know if there is anything I can do other than wait for Nvidia/Microsoft to sort this out.
My previous post included and try to play on the 4K screen and see if it occurs.Chalupa wrote:
I play on a 1080p screen as it is a pen display. the issue remains on all displays regardless of resolution, or if in windowed/full-screen.
Give the multi-display performance mode a go too.Chalupa wrote:
Yes. I mentioned that the issue remain on all screens. This includes the 4k display.
When you installed the drivers did you do so with all your monitors on?Chalupa wrote:
Not anymore unfortunately. I recently moved to a new area and sold many of my things. I previously have used an HD 7770, a 960, and a 980. I have not had any performance issues in osu with them.
According to geforce experience as of right now I am up to date.
Uninstall then use DDU, it will prompt to run safe mode and just run the Nvidia option.Chalupa wrote:
Yeah, it's been on extended the entire time.
I did most recently do the driver update using the clean install update but I did not use DDU as this was a new windows instillation. Can't hurt to try.
