Stuttering when using Exiled-Exchange-2.

[RogueMuppetArms]

I have found this when I run the Exiled-Exchange-2 app.
I had an AMD 3600 CPU, at first I was thinking that CPU was just not up to the task but that's not the case as I just installed the AMD 7 5700x3d and I still have the same problem.
Just wanted to let you know this as it could be a problem for others.

I have the exact same issue. Im on a AMD 5600x CPU and a 7900 GRE GRP and as soon as i open Exiled Exchange 2 the game stops using my 100 FPS lock and goes beoynd and starts to stutter.

Tried Sidekick just for fun, when i press ctrl+d Poe2 windows looses focus and FPS gets wonky exactly as exile exhange does, the difference is that when i close the pricecheck windows poe2 windows gets focus again and fps is stable.
Is there anything you can do so that Exile Exchange dosent steal focus from game window when you are not pricechecking anything?

the option would be to enable --no-overlay cli flag, but that is probably not what you are looking for

This may be because the game loses focus so it gets less performance? I'm really not sure on the hardware problem stuff sorry.

I'm no npm/nodejs/ts expert but my understanding is that that line of code is executed everytime we launch EE2 right? (it has nothing to do with building in windows). It is in the main.ts and if the host is different from macos (e.g. linux and win32) it will disable HW accel right?

EDIT:
I was able to build a version which i will test this evening

[Kvan7]

sorry, then it runs every time for windows since darwin is mac. I just don't know if you think this should or should not run

[maxdd]

My reasoning is that if you disable hw acceleration everything is allocated to the cpu which might explain the lagging and the increased overload. I have read about ppl switching to faster CPU (Ryzen 5000 series) without any luck though so I'm just exploring. There was another guy mentioning that it has something to do with his monitor Hz as if gsync (or freesync) is not working properly.
So, if for Mac it is ok to have it, I don't see why not for windows since for Linux it was removed because of a bug

[maxdd]

i did the test, it didnt resolve it. The only solution for me is to use the --no-overlay and use the browser by tabbing

[maxdd]

I have confirmed it is related to freesync. If i turn it off from the monitor itself i have full fps + EE2 running.
I guess in the APT repo there are similar reports and it might be worth discussing there as well

I notice my GSYNC stops working as soon as I launch Exiled Exchange, i did not have this issue in the early versions.

[maxdd]

was it stuttering in early versions?
