Frame drop roughly every second

While playing, the game freezes roughly every second. It only happens in EVE.

That screenshot shows a modest framerate drop, but every time it dips, the screen freezes for a fraction of a second in a very perceptible way.

Hardware:

  • AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor, 3801 Mhz, 12 Core(s), 24 Logical Processor(s)
  • B450 AORUS ELITE
  • AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
  • AMD Adrenalin Edition Version 25.11.1

Conditions where the issue is observed and persistent:

  • Windows 11 or Fedora 43 (Linux)
  • 60 Hz and 144 Hz
  • AMD FreeSync enabled
  • With or without AMD FSR3 upscaling
  • Frame generaiton enabled or disabled
  • DX12 and DX11

The issue is persistent and doesn’t improve even when reducing multiple graphics quality settings.

Settings when screenshot was taken:

Same problem persists after Catalyst expansion:

Alright, now this is crazy: this issue only affects THIS CHARACTER. ON other characters the game runs silk smooth. Now I think I need to file a bug report or something.

I found the cause of the issue: it happens only when I’m tracking a skill plan. If you encounter the same issue: stop tracking a skill plan and it will work again. Something about the skill queue UI is broken.
