In addition, I'm using around 4GB of VRAM with these settings. You will likely have to turn some of the settings down for the 970. I'm averaging between 50 and 70 fps with very little stuttering. Overclocking my 980ti gives my an extra 10fps. I'm sure there is some extra CPU overhead in there. I've also disabled the online components because I don't care about multi-player. Texture Resolution: High (I completely removed the ultra texture pack) Pagefile on Vertex 4 SSD (I found this to be necessary when I had 8GB of RAM. Here is my system and exactly what I did to get the performance where I want it.

This game has some issues with texture streaming it seems. Still a hitch here and there when some textures are streaming, but not bad. It was almost unplayable until I found the sweet spot. Listen, I spent a week trying to get the settings just right to play this game. And who have a mid-range system and think they can run every game at max settings because they play other games at max settings. No, the biggest problem in the gaming community are those who insult people that are just trying to help.

Every other game works like a ******* charm for me, its always Watch dogs. So dont say u 'FIXED' it by setting lower textures and something with ur ssd because it isnt the fault of ur pc its the game itself. I set the whole game to low settings INCLUDING textures, it ran the same way, but more stutters ! The only thing which KIND OFF helps, is setting pixel density to the lowest possible. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 (3GB) | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4GB) | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (3GB) or better | AMD Radeon R9 290 (4GB) or better + I run the ****ing game constant 60+ FPS with those ****ty stutter when Im driving, the same problem was in watch dogs 1 ( watch dogs 2 also uses Disrupt Engine ? ) Why are you saying **** like this ? You are the biggest PROBLEM in the gaming community, Here are the recommended specs on which watch dogs 2 should work without any problems. I still get minor stuttering when turning, but before it was unplayable.

I had terrible stuttering while driving until I did these 2 things. Make sure your pagefile is on an SSD if you have one. A 970 is not going to be enough to run this game with every setting on max.
