    FFXIV Frame Stuttering Every Minute

    When playing FFXIV I am having a frame stutter occur every minute consistently.
    I timed the duration between frame drops and it is always between 1 minute and 10 seconds to 1 minute and 14 seconds.
    MY fps will drop even when standing still in a non populated area such as my housing ward.
    Current Specs:
    CPU AMD 9800x3d
    GPU PNY NVidia GEForce RTX 5080
    RAM: 32GB DDR5
    OS: Windows 11

    I recently upgraded to this new computer and did not have this issue before when I was on Windows 10.
    Things I have tried:
    Updating BIOS
    Updating NVidia drivers through clean reinstall
    Made sure FFXIV is set to Optimized through windows game
    Setting a hard frame rate in the NVidia APP
    Changing Power Settings
    Disabling Gamepad
    removing all peripherals except the mouse
    Made sure ffxiv_dx11 is allowed through the firewall
    Turning off all start up programs and trying to launch ffxiv
    I am at my wits end as the game was working well before I upgraded.

    Wrong section of the forum. Should be in bug reports.

    And I can almost guarantee it's not FFXIV and is entirely how GPU and CPU unfriendly Windows 11 is. It's an awful OS. Have you tried forcing off all the AI tools like Copilot?

    If all else fails, I had zero issues running FFXIV on SteamOS via my Steamdeck and that's a free Linux operating system. I'm looking into swapping myself.
