I got a Radeon RX 6800 XT a few months ago, and now I can't even get into any fights or i'll die from the five second lag spikes every twenty seconds ... I have an i7 10700k, with the above GPU, with 32gb of ddr4 ram, so I know that it's not causing any of this. My internet is 100mb/s down 15mb/s up, and i'm on ethernet.
While playing this game though I get crazy lag spikes, I disabled skins with graphics.itemskins 0 but it's still lagging, I first thought it was lag from skin downloads, but there's no way it is with that previous command. The servers I play on are normally 30-40ms ping, but I get lag spikes from 2000ms to 15k+ms. Before I got the new gpu I never had this issue, and if I play any other games I NEVER get lag spikes...?
