Somethings that cause fps studders/ frame drops
Somethings that cause fps studders/ frame drops
1) 8GB ram
8GB ram is not enough to run Wuwa smoothly. You can temp fix it by closing all background applications.(PS: upgrade to 16GB, it's cheap)
2) Having an iGPU(Older) or a GPU worse than 1030
1030 is below the minimum requirement of the games but imo is the least ammount of GPU required to run the game at playable fps on 1080p/900p Lowest setting. (You can try GeForce now until you upgrade your pc)
3) Hard Disks(HDD)
These also are known to cause issues in wuwa so please avoid them if you have the option.
4) The game is not running on the dedicated GPU
Sometimes the game will run on the iGPU of the cpu. IF you are on laptop turn off power saving mode and see if any software that comes with the laptop is causing this issue. You should also try 7 from common fixes.
