Online Method
This method works with online mode & you are able to play multiplayer. However, it is still inferior compared to the offline method in boosting FPS & reducing stutter issues.
Download Process Lasso[bitsum.com]
At the Toolbar at the top, Click Options -> Power -> Bitsum Highest Performance -> Install/Initialize
At the Toolbar at the top again, Click Options -> Power -> Start Process Lasso with Power Profile -> Bitsum Highest Performance
Options -> CPU -> CPU Affinities -> Process Match: start_protected_game.exe -> CPU Affinity, Select, check ALL except CPU 0. Do the same for EasyAntiCheat_EOS.exe
Restart Elden Ring
Offline Method
First download the Anti-Cheat Toggler[www.nexusmods.com] & disable EAC. Next, there's 3 ways you can do it
You can go to task manager, right click elden ring, go to details, right click again, and click CPU Affinity, uncheck CPU 0. (But you have to do this everytime you open up the game)
Is using this mod[www.nexusmods.com] with mod engine 2. (Set modengine2_luauncher.exe go Properties - Compatibility - Run the program as an administrator. Make sure you're doing this on the actual exe and not a shortcut) for it to work.
This is what I use, I download Process Lasso[bitsum.com] & set it wherein everytime I open elden ring, it automatically changes the CPU affinity for me. Options -> CPU -> CPU Affinities -> Process Match: eldenring.exe -> CPU Affinity, Select, check ALL except CPU 0. (Do note if you are using mods together with this method, click advanced & set a 30 second delay to not crash)Just restart after doing it and it should fix the FPS issues.
Mods to use with Offline ModeOn an unrelated note, since you already are forced to play in offline using the main method, here's some mod recommendations that doesn't change game mechanics but gives QOL features.
Transmogrify [www.nexusmods.com] (Change your appearance to any armor while keeping the stats and bonuses from the armor you actually have equipped)
Camera Offset[www.nexusmods.com] with Lock Player Rotation[www.nexusmods.com] (Make's the camera while in combat way less clunky for me. Be sure to go to the config file for camera offset & change 'auto-toggle' to 'no' to make it compatible with Lock player rotation.
Pause the Game[www.nexusmods.com]
Skip the Intro[www.nexusmods.com]
Temporal Super Sampling[www.nexusmods.com] (Adds integration for NVIDIA DLSS/DLAA, AMD FSR and Intel XeSS. Give's me an FPS boost as well for not much quality loss)
Additionally, you can buy Lossless Scaling in Steam to have the ability to use Frame Generation.
Other Fixes
Disabling Microsoft Device Association Root EnumeratorCredits to Watermelon for finding this fix
Open up Device Manager
Under "Software Devices", right click Microsoft Device Association Root Enumerator & Disable Device What it is: Legacy support for old peripherals such as connecting to old printers, MIDI Devices (used for music creation), Serial port (for hardware repair), CDs & Usb Floppy drives. You can always re-enable this if you ever need to use it.
Setting Custom Frame limitOther users reported that setting a custom frame limit of 59.930 fixed their stuttering issues. Using native frame limiters to limit it to 60 or 59 does not seem to work.
Download RTSS[www.guru3d.com]
In RTSS, on the lower right Click Add, locate your Elden Ring.exe which should be commonly in your SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ELDEN RING\Game.
Click eldenring.exe & on the right side, Set Framerate Limit 59.930
