Sea of Thieves jerky - you can do that
In Sea of Thieves you can set sail alone or with friends as a privateer. If the game stutters, of course, it's not very fun. In this practical tip, we will show you why and what you can do about it.
Sea of Thieves jerky - what to do?
- The first thing to check is whether your PC meets the minimum game requirements. You should have at least 4 GB of RAM, an Intel Q9450 or Phenom II X6, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 or AMD Radeon 7750 or equivalent components.
- Especially on slow systems, it can help to lower the resolution and graphics details. If the game runs smoothly, you can increase the settings step by step.
- You should also make sure that you have installed the latest drivers for your graphics card. You can find these for download for both AMD and Nvidia cards.
- Quit all unnecessary programs that are running in the background as they can negatively affect the performance of the game. This also applies to firewalls and virus scanners.
More tips for performance problems
- Sea of Thieves is still fairly new and may contain some bugs. Check that you have installed all updates. If errors are not yet resolved, you may have to wait for upcoming updates. A look at the official game forum can provide information on current problems.
- In rare cases, reinstalling the game can eliminate annoying stutters.
- Since Sea of Thieves is an online game, problems can occur with a slow or unstable internet connection. Therefore, make sure that your internet connection is working properly. The Chip DSL Speedtest can help you with troubleshooting.
