How important is 60fps to you?

SSD but it's on a laptop. Predator Helios 300 i7-8750H (2.2ghz with boost up to 4ghz but quickly heats up with boost, have it disabled)

The game runs fine when just running around, but stutters in fights, very annoying.

* Disable Hyper-threading.
* Leave turbo enabled.
* Set Affinity to 4 CPU cores.

Ori's optimal core count is 4 cores, so your 6 core, 12 thread CPU is overkill from a CPU threading perspective, but the game loves clock-rate, which you have hampered.

By disabling Hyperthreading and setting the games affinity to 4 CPU cores, it will dump all the available TDP into Turbo to run those cores at it's highest possible rate.

Heat isn't going to reduce your systems longevity, heat is a natural by-product of all computer systems.

I assume you have variable refresh rate enabled?

In some games it gets too hot (98c) and thermal throttled which causes severe stutters, hence I disable turbo for FH4 and FS2020. Testing ori right now temp stays in the high 70s / low 80s with turbo enabled, so not as taxing. However now I'm paying closer attention to it, it's not smooth while running either, lot of very noticeable judder, even when jumping (flying through the air) so scroll speed should be constant. It's very distracting.

My CPU does go up to 3.8 ghz while Ori runs. I see no other settings, just resolution, set to 1080p, full screen, motion blur off, VSync on. Without Vsync the judders are less, but still no constant scroll speed. More playable anyway, but I need to start over I see. No clue what I'm doing anymore, running back and forth in the same area.

No clue how to change the other settings (hyperthreading, affinity)
