Hello all,

I've recently been trying out my new components on my system and I've been having bad fps stuttering when it comes to certain games, these being BF6 beta, Black Ops 6, Fortnite, Ready or Not. ect. I've enabled PBO and have enabled EXPO for my RAM but despite all this I'm still getting stuttering in games. I have even gone as far as to do a fresh install of windows, reinstall the latest bios update, reinstall chipset drivers and reinstall latest drivers for my GPU but still nothing has helped stop the fps stuttering and 1% drops.

Does anyone have any advice on what might fix this?
 
These tips are not all applicable to nvidia cards, but many of them are (timestamps in the description):

I've got a Lian Li 360mm AIO and the Lian Li 011 Dynamic EVO but I'm looking to swap to the new O11 Mini V2 flow next month once it releases. Any AIO/cooler recommendations?

If you're hitting 90C+ in a game, with a 9800X3D and a Lian Li 360mm AIO, you've either got a mounting issue or a faulty cooler (I believe some Galahad models have known faults). What model is it exactly?

Something wrong there, check your pump speed, water level.

Shouldn't reach that temp with a good air cooler let alone a 360mm
I agree, something doesn't seem right with it.

It's been audibly louder recently to the point where it sounds like it's trying to push more cooling through especially the first 5 minutes of the computer being turned on
 
I believe it's this one Cooler
Any chance it is one of these?

Yeah I believe it's one of these. Would it be worth trying to get a replacement or outright getting a better cooler?

Well, you don't need a mega cooler for these CPUs, a ~£30 peerless assassin can do the job. I'd probably swap it out for one of those, do the RMA and sell the replacement/repair, but it won't look as good.
 
To be fair I'm not all too fussed over looks as what I might think looks good may look awful for someone else. Would you recommend a Noctua cooler at all? I've heard they're supposed to be good but haven't tried one myself before

As long as my components are performing as they should and I'm not having issues then that's the main thing

Good but overpriced now. Go for thermelright better value

I have noctua, but a thermalright is 1/3 price
 
Managed to speak to AMD today regarding it and they want me to test another CPU/RAM kit in the system to try my current CPU and RAM in a different system to see if the issues happen again. Issue is I don’t have any spare hardware nor another AM5 platform PC to test the parts in
