Okay guys, I turned off Alienware Command Centres overclock and then CLOSED the app, and this almost entirely got rid of the instabilities in the FPS, I tested opening the app and playing with it open and the instabilities came back and after closing it they disappeared, but I didn't think I always have the app open whilst playing games and it only makes large instabilities on CPU heavy games so perhaps, with everyone's help here, changing some of the settings on my PC also effected it, but it is entirely possible I'm completely and utterly stupid (which I am). So I'll test the PC for a few days and hopefully will not have to come back here. I greatly appreciate the help I've been given here and I thank you all for you time, and am also very sorry for wasting your time. Thanks!
Hello, I recently got this Aurora R13 as a gift, and as it was an expensive one I expect it to be somewhat flawless. But I have been having a big issue on all my games where the fps is completely unstable. It runs at high fps on the maximum settings of pretty much all my games, but the fps is inconsistent and will go from 144-120-144-100-144-130-90-144. I limited the FPS to 144 as there is no need for it to be higher than my monitors Hz's and even when I turn all the settings down the drops always occur. I'm under the impression this isn't supposed to be happening as my previous Aurora R8 was perfectly stable. This is really annoying as the sudden and rather large drops happen all the time, not every now and then. This is extremely noticeable and annoying especially as this rig was almost £3k. I've ran antimalware things and done some stuff to try and fix it but the problem still persists. I can confirm its not the GPU hardware as this has been replaced and the problem continued on the new one. I can read out my system specs if anyone needs them. Any tips and help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
