Literally i just got my new gpu A Day ago and while i can finally max out every game i noticed that most "intensive" games tend to have subtle stuttering, worst offender being assasins creed unity and Dying Light, i messed arround with ym settings and it seems that the Texture Quality setting in both games affects most of the stuttering, it isnt constant but its visible enough for it to be annoying... Is it normal that this card is causing this behavior?, i mean i wasted about 400$ bucks on the gpu i just expect it to work as it should..
Chuck it through the reccomended settings on GeForce Experience
There could be the possibility that the card is being bottlenecked by your cpu
Unity and Dying Light are far from well performing games on top-end cards. I have an EVGA 970 as well and Dying Light runs ok as soon as you turn the nVidia settings off. Unity is just a shit game and won't ever run well.
That said, even in light of the GTX 970 controversy, I have never had stuttering. What are your other specs? What resolution are you playing at?
Please post your full specs. A 970 on a potato will still be a potato.
Specs are
CPU:Intel Core I5-3350P 3.10 GHz
Ram: DDR3 8 GB
Mobo: Asus P8Z77-V LX
Your CPU is a bit slow for today's standards, but I think the real culprits here are the poorly optimized games you're playing (Unity and Dying Light were awful ports and their respective developers appear to have very little interest in fixing those problems). Does it happen in older/less demanding games?
Could you post a Speccy of your rig?

Oh wow, fairly sure that something is wrong with the GPU there is no way it should be on 63C at idle..
I wouldn't worry, 63 is high but not worrisome high. Any idea what your load temperatures are? Your card could be throttling itself ingame due to heat, which may account for some less than desirable performance.
The fans on newer EVGA cards won't turn on until they hit a certain temperature. If it bothers you that much, you can use an external program to force them on or, if your 970 is the same as mine, you can flip the first BIOS switch on the back (and reboot) and the fans will stay on with a negligible increase in noise.
Oh alright, that makes sense then.... alright according to speccy ( running it on a second monitor while i played some games ) my Top temps while playing were about 67C with my fan speed set to 60% Using the nvidia system tools, i went ahead and changed all my nvidia control panel settings back to default and it seems that the stuttering is gone for now.. Thanks everyone!

Wouldn't that wear out the fans a lot faster?

It would.

Well yeah, but most people aren't going to have their cards long enough to see their fans fail even if they do that.
I heard from my friends that by turning off the AA in game and forcing it through the nvidia control panel helped remove the stuttering in Dying Light.
I also heard that game is poorly optimized as it is
I got a 970. I don't have Dying light, but Unity is just shitly optimized.
Make sure all your drivers are up to date.
I had a stuttering problem a few years back. The problem was my power supply, there was coil whine and every time i heard a little buzz, my game would stutter. So what I would recommend is try to listen for little buzzing noise in your power supply when gaming.
