Hi folks,
I've been having this trouble for months, I'm getting constant stuttering on demanding games every few minutes, sometimes small and barely noticeable and sometimes worse and freezing up for a second or two. Audio continues which makes me think it is not the fTPM issue. Examples https://imgur.com/a/N9cB1e0 + https://imgur.com/a/aKA5oDV
it seems to happen only in demanding games and not in general use like using Google etc.
I have tried so many things - changing all display settings, V-Sync, G-Sync etc. tried reinstalling windows and updating to windows 11, disabled fTPM and PCIE 4, reinstalled all drivers with DDU. Temperatures are OK and definitely not throttling.
I'm thinking it may actually be a hardware issue related to the CPU or motherboard. I'm not sure whether to try and return it or not as it's difficult where I live.
Here are my specs
GPU: GTX 3060 Ti
CPU: RYZEN 5 5600X
Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus Elite AX V2
BIOS Version: F16a
RAM: 16GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB PRO 3600MHZ CL18
PSU: Corsair 850W 80+ Gold
Case: AeroCool AirHawk Duo ARGB Mesh Gaming Case
Operating System & Version: WINDOWS 10 PRO 19044
Many thanks for any help and advice
