The problem persist on both 556.12 and 561.09 but at least in my findings it's less than say the newest driver (572.16). I felt like the stutter/hitch problem was happening quite often on 572.16.

However it's really hard to know as this problem seems to be completely random. There's no way (as far as i'm aware) to recreate the problem.

It seems like a bug in the game or in the drivers themselves. Sadly I do not own a AMD card to test it to see if it does it on AND as well.

I have tried both Windows 10 and 11 and it happens on both.

As of right now I would recommend either 556.12 or 561.09. These seem to be the smoothest drivers for me.

Some of the later driver in 2024 are broken in other ways so I don't recommend them. For example, some break Digital Vibrance (resets after each restart or power off/on), others break DSR ( no more down sampling) and they also break the windows 10 transparencies (Only affects windows 10 users).
