I didn't notice the lag every minute. There was one lag spike that seems to happen every 5 or 10 minutes, but I don't know if this is Display Fusion or not or is entirely consistent. If it is Display Fusion the lag seems to be a lot less noticeable and happens only a fraction of the time. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#62 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 21:30:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#62 DisplayFusion Perhaps the issue has something to do with Gsync?

Seems about the same as before, but I haven't looked too much into it to really tell if it's improved or gotten worse. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#59 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 01:04:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#59 DisplayFusion Hey all, sorry for the late follow-up! I was on vacation when Beta 10 was released. If you haven't already, could you try out 8.0 Beta 10 and let me know how it works out?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#58 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 18:28:21 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#58 DisplayFusion We're making some more changes for the next beta (8.0 Beta 10). We'll let you know when it's available to try out.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#57 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 03:00:23 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#57 DisplayFusion I'm having the same issue as everyone else, running the Steam version of DF. Running a 1070 GTX, i5-3570K, 16GB RAM. I have a 1440p monitor and a 1080p monitor, and I get horrific stutter every 60 seconds. Quitting DF is the only thing that fixes the issue. I've tried turning off wallpaper shuffling to see if that was it but to no avail. I also disabled my third monitor to see if that would do anything but it doesn't seem to have any affect.

Has there been any progress on this? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#56 Wed, 06 Jul 2016 19:20:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#56 DisplayFusion I have 6 monitors, 5 of which are 1080p and one is 2160p. I didnt think monitor resolutions would make a difference but I figured I would add that info. I bought this program BECAUSE of its ability to scale with different monitor resolutions though. =) ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#55 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 19:51:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#55 DisplayFusion Thanks for the extra info, that's definitely interesting. Number of monitors shouldn't affect it, but stranger things have happened! We'll let you know when we have another build to test out.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#54 Sun, 26 Jun 2016 07:40:19 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#54 DisplayFusion I don't know if the error logs show this, but I notice that the lag seems to be effected by how many monitors I have going. I have 4 and get the 1-2 second lag. With just 3 it's maybe 0.25-1 seconds. And with 2 it's barely noticeable, but I wasn't timing exactly so it was kind of hard to tell on 2 monitors.

It doesn't seem to matter which monitors were active and which weren't. I have 3 1080p monitors and an old 3:4 monitor in horizontal portrait mode. I just unplugged the connection from the monitor and after windows were resized I could see an immediate difference.

I also tried removing other devices but they didn't seem to have an effect. Even removed my KVM, but didn't have an effect.

Perhaps it blocks all monitor's resources from other processes until it finished all of them and that's why the stutter is more prevailing with more monitors? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#53 Fri, 24 Jun 2016 19:44:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#53 DisplayFusion Ok, thanks guys!

Granted not AS noticeable as the original issue, but it still makes the system unusable for a second or two. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#51 Thu, 23 Jun 2016 04:48:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#51 DisplayFusion It's back in Beta 8, although it's not as noticeable in game. The lag is probably about 25%~50% of what it was before. It's definitely harder to see it happen. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#50 Wed, 22 Jun 2016 12:54:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cpu-spike-every-60-seconds/?ID=a7efe492-cee1-4862-b69d-36705d23c2a0#50 DisplayFusion Hey all! 8.0 Beta 8 is available now.

Downloaded Beta 6 cause of the release note. It looks like Beta 7 fixed this issue for me.
