Nothing against you or anything but even the high end PCs are experiencing this.
Reddit has ruled out that it's an issue after the Diretide update and has nothing to do with your PC or game settings at all.

Valve is just ignorant at this point and could've fixed it with a performance patch but they did not....guess they'll when there's mass decline in active players.

This is not reliable source for low-end pc trust me :)

[paulnathanielpacana]

Thanks man. It fixed my problem. More power

for me, updating the gpu driver only makes the fps lower. i don't understand why. the best performance i get is from the gpu driver provided by the company itself

I have a 3070 and a 5600x both kept very cool. I stopped playing for a month, now when I return I'm getting stuttering. It doesn't matter what settings I change either.

without actually seeing the video, just fast forwarding all the steps....if anyone want to try only one step that i think is the most crucial one is the launch options at 4:22

Can you make a video about rendering api since dx9 will be out soon in dota most of us will be force to use dx11 but the problem is when we usually use it the game stutter all the time

[princepsionic]

One of the way is to restart every game to solve the stuttering problem.

Is there a way to remove the hero animation in the background cuz it lags my main menu

[Divinetots]

THANK YOU. BECAUSE OF THE NEW PATCH 7.29 I got fps drop

[adwelel]

after upgrading from hdd into ssd fps just drops everytime a skill is thrown

[ftzqt]

I only have Intel(R)HD Graphics 630, at the first 2 months my dota 2 worked fine. After that it started to lag every game after picking, the lag spikes before 1 minute and 30 seconds and that is every game. It lags for 5 seconds then 1 second normal then 5 seconds lag again and so on until about 2minutes. DOES ANYONE HAVE A SOLUTION FOR THIS?

[codymaverick]

thanks bro! I was wondering why it suddenly drop to 45 fps.

[thebusines]

I was having this problem until a few hours, my fix was uninstall dota and install it where the ssd is, now it runs smooth without any single fps drops, it was installed in my hdd so maybe that is the reason
