I sometimes get stutters on my Razer Blade 16.They happen around twice a minute or so. Usually my laptop is fine most of the time. But once the stuttering starts, it usually does not stop until I have restarted the laptop. I noticed that the stutters only really happen when my game is in fullscreen exclusive mode. On fullscreen windowed they don’t usually happen, don’t want the increased latency that comes with that though…I tried so much, all kinds of driver upgrades and downgrades, bios updates etc. etc.Eventually I kind of gave up on it until I had an idea - what if I close Razer Synapse? Turns out that when I exit razer synapse during those stuttering episodes - the stutters go away…I tried both Razer Synapse 3 and 4 reinstalls and both of them have this issue. Is there an alternative? anything I can do? The fact that the software that is there to manage everything about my laptop causes it to stutter is just unbelievably stupid. Please tell me there is a fix?

I think razer synapse has been causing issues with DPC system latency for some reason perhaps due to bugs from how the code interacts with system hardware or drivers. May have to do with the THX audio implementation. I had a whole bunch of issues with audio pops and clicks (which can also be caused by DPC system latency spikes) until uninstalling synapse as well. This type of latency can cause mouse stuttering, brief display/system stuttering, or audio pops or clicks and you can check if you are getting these latency spikes measuring themusing software such as LatencyMon. Are you running Windows 11 24H2? If so my guess is this may be related to all the audio issues or THX profile issues others have been posting about lately.
