Hello guys!
A year ago I built a PC (U can see the components below), and I have frametime spikes in all games, even just in windows. I went down the rabbithole and tried everything, and I'm starting to give up and I don't know who can I turn to. I understand that modern games can stutter but I don't think every game should.
I get stutters on:
Black ops 6
Mafia (1) Definitive edition
Insurgency Sandstorm
Spider-Man Miles Morales
Need for Speed Unbound
RuneScape Dragonwilds
Dead by Daylight
Sometimes even in CS2 and Valorant and also in OSU
The list of what I tried already would be long as hell, so if u guys have an idea what should I try please feel free to reply and I will tell you that I tried that or not and if not I will let u know it fixed my problem or it still present.
My build:
MSI B650 MAG Tomahawk Wifi
Ryzen 7800X3D (I even type here the cooler which is a Dark Rock Pro 5)
4080 Super
Corsair 2x16GB 6000Mhz CL30
Corsair RM850x Shift
WD SN850X 1TB
WD SN850X 4TB
Im playing on 1440p 165hz with GSYNC. I would appriciate any idea.
(also I have a clip where u could see the spikes im having but im not sure how could I post it here since links are not acceptable and the file size is large.)

Re: Frametime spikes
Are you by any chance monitoring the GPU Power in something like RTSS / Afterburner? That brought down my performance on a somewhat similar system (same GPU, 5800X3D)

Re: Frametime spikes
Ty for your reply!
No, I don't running gpu power monitoring in afterburner. I knew about this one so I turned that one off

Re: Frametime spikes
BIOS settings (EXPO, PBO, etc.), Windows installation (Defender, WinUpdate, GPU driver choice, background app sw hogging CPU cycles etc.) are the #1 cause of macrostuttering.icei30y wrote: ↑27 May 2025, 04:42A year ago I built a PC (U can see the components below), and I have frametime spikes in all games, even just in windows.
