When I enable HPET via CMD i have really bad performance with my PC (i9-9900k/rtx-2080ti/32gb3200) disabling it helps a lot, but doesn't remove my micro stutters, I was reading you should have it ON/ON or OFF/OFF in the BIOS/WIN because a mixed setting is causing some troubles. Unfortunately the HPET Setting is hidden in my MSI MB. Currently im running the latest Version of the BIOS.

@FYNE - I find best general testing results (just looking at timers, not a gamer) with it disabled in BIOS but default/enabled at BCDEdit command. See my comments and testing image here under the "Change Log" area
If you don't care about BIOS version, I did V17 with chipset menu mod here - MSI Z390 MEG ACE BIOS REQUEST (2)

If you want same done to latest BIOS, let me know and I will redo to latest version

Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks!
If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM
I view the forum like this, please bump your thread 1x every 24-48 hours if no reply
