Same, get bad stuttering and freezes when rounding certain corners no matter if I've been there before, the long hallway leading to the main house foyer and anytime returning to the foyer leads to the freezes. Hoping for new drivers and a patch cause it's kind of unplayable for me rn :/
970 8 gb 3570k @ 3.5

I just crashed after the dinner scene as well. Blue screened my PC actually.
Hmm that is really bad news. I also have 970 and demo was quite ok for me. I do not think that I can play with stuttering. Anyone else with 970 here?
Performance is pretty good on my rig. 6600k, 1070, 16gb ram. 80-120fps at 1440p depending on scenery, all settings maxed, ssao, fxaa, motion blur off. However, after I finished my session and went to quit I got an unresponsive black screen. Alt tab or ctrl alt del both didn't work. Same issue I had at times with doom.

Maybe set Shadow Cache to off (like in demo)?

I had this issue with a couple of games (especially Dark Souls 3) and can't figure out what the problem is. It's definetly not the game itself because it happened with different titles.
Anybody?

I'm having the stutter too, hoping some solution is found.
No solution on my end, just thought I'd throw my hat in and say I've had similar issues with both Dark Souls III and DOOM. Seems better now but it can still happen the odd time. Haven't started Resident Evil VII yet so fingers crossed it doesn't happen to me, though I do have similar enough specs to Rizific.

So setting RE7 priority to High in control panel lessens the stuttering, but does not fix it.
Game runs perfectly fine until those hitches. Going to test some things with cores now.
100% can confirm it has NOTHING to do with the settings. Turned everything to the lowest possible, didn't do a thing.
Was no stuttering in the first area, but was in the second area.

I've played about 45 minutes with a 970 on medium settings, 60fps without any drops so far. Demo ran fine for me as well.

To the people with stuttering on 970s. Try lowering texture quality, at very high the game fills up to 7.2gb @ 1080p on my 1070. Of course maybe it is just reserving so much memory because of reasons and not using it, but it still might be worth a try.
edit: uses 8gb @ 1440p + 1.1 render scaling (2816x1584?)
edit 2:
Textures aren't thrilling anyway, not matter the settings.

Turn On The texture cache. Than, go back to MAIN MENU and from there change the texture size to medium

Everyone's shadows look like this? It's very ugly. Any fixes?
Make sure you set pre-rendered frames to 1 and vsync on in the nvidia control panel (global settings).
I'm not too far in yet, but comfortably sitting on very high everything with no stutter or slowdown on minimal MSI Afterburner OC 970.

Yep, this is annoying the hell out of me. I can't even play it on my TV without HDR, because my TV "detects" HDR and forces it on and the picture looks like absolute fucking garbage when you disable it in game as you said. Also, I don't know if it's just my TV or the game, but it has really bad banding at the start in the video segment. Selecting 12-bit in the graphics card options doesn't do anything for it.
Also, does anyone know what's up with the sparkle effect that makes it look like glitter is scattered all over the house? That shit is super annoying, and I can't seem to get rid of it through any of the options.

Is this like one of those retro Easter egg areas they had in DOOM?

Running on an i5 6600 boosted to 3.8 GHz, GTX 1080, 16 GB RAM, on a Samsung 4k TV.
I have everything maxed out, except HBAO+ and I have those variable reflections. I've got the frames capped at 30 to ensure a nice, smooth ride even though it's been hovering between 40-60 most of the time. Game runs like a champ. HDR is nice but when I try to turn it off everything is all white and washed out.
Also might have been Steam error but anyone else having issues taking screenshots?

Same here audio comes faster than the scene by 2-3 seconds, glad I am not alone with this issue at least.

No way this crappy textures can eat 8gb of vram
It must be some kind of shadow or texture cache..Did you bump up the resolution scaling? I did, and it seemed to be in sync again once I lowered it a bit.
No I didn't I left it at 1, never touched it.

Man... Looks like Capcom never resolved the CPU issue that people were having since the demo. I'm running an i7 2600K with a GTX 970 and I still can't run the game. It crashes once I get out of the main menu..
I've updated my graphics card drivers recently. 376.33
EDIT: Supposedly, the game doeesn't support CPUs with SSL 4.1 but my processor has both SSL 4.1 and 4.2..

Anyone can test the game with a mid-range card?
Like a 770 or 960?
I only have a 960 2GB. But the demo was smooth enough (60fps) at high settings + 1080p. I don't care about higher resolutions. Recommended system requirements state a 3GB card so i assume this game doesn't need too much VRAM?

I have my PC (i7 4790, gtx 980 Ti latest drv) connected with HDMI to a normal TV. Not 4K and not HDR.
At first when i started the game, everything was ok, HDR was greyed out in-game. However after I restarted the PC, the game seems to turn on HDR mode, making brightness seem wrong, and turning HDR off manually makes everything super bright and washed out :/
The .ini file seems to have an HDRMode setting set to 0.
Is there anything that can be done to disable HDR being detected?

Started the game and everything was great, was getting 80-100fps (980ti, Gsync, 1080p, everything maxed).
But after watching the first tape, when the gameplay returned to normal the frame rate steadily starts dropping. Fought
at 14fps. And idea what's causing this? GPU utilisation stays at 99%-100%.

It's a bug, I had the same problem. Change your resolution to something else, then back to 1080p.
Running good so far, 60fps all the time, at 2560*1440p everything maxed out with a 980Ti.
What's the difference between color space BT709 and sRGB? is it 16-235 vs 0-255?

Shame you can't disable the AA. Looks like smaa offers the cleanest look if you're trying to downsample.
Why is hair jagged as all hell even with FXAA + TAA on? Mia's looks awful for me, I just watched some PS4 gameplay and it didn't look like this.

...OK, well, I switched interlaced to normal and now it looks fine.

Running the game in 4k then dropping the internal renderer down till I could lock it at 60fps was the key to fixing all my issues with the HDR. Now everything looks great. I had to drop it down to .8 of 2160p
I was getting 45fps in 4k with a GTX 1080...
So I tried dropping the resolution, and it's not scaling to fullscreen properly. I can't seem to get it to work right, either. I've tried messing with the scaling settings in Nvidia Control Panel. Anyone else having the problem?
EDIT: ^^ I'll try scaling down using the in-game option. Hadn't thought of that. Still weird.

I guess the point if Interlaced mode is trying to emulate the look of old CRT TVs? But it looks really bad imo. It's not a proper noise effect, it just pixelates everything.

I did the same thing a while ago, and I'm able to run the game at 60fps now. I'm still getting this really horrible case of pixel shimmering though. It's fucking everywhere in the game, and it's so bad that it's absolutely ruining the presentation. It literally looks like someone threw up glitter on any "wet" surface that is supposed to be shiny.
