Hi! I have had this problem in what seems forever and cannot seem to find a fix anywhere.
The problem I have is on most games I get these dips in FPS, lets say I'm getting 90fps and then I'll get a quick drop to 50fps which results in a small stutter/lag spike/hitch, whatever you want to call it. It lasts no more than a second but it really ruins the flow and immersion for me! I'd say it happens on average once every 2 minutes, although sometimes it can be worse and sometimes I might only get one in 10 minutes, it varies.
What I find odd is I used to get this exact same problem on my old system and since have had to upgrade as my motherboard packed in. I upgraded my CPU, Motherboard, RAM, Graphics Card, the only parts remaining from my old build were the Power Supply, HDD and SSD. I thought upgrading would have fixed the issue but it still remains and it's so frustrating.
I have tried installing games on the SSD to help but it doesn't help really, I get stutters on games whether they are installed on the SSD or HDD. I even bought a GSYNC monitor in hope it might help smooth everything out but still no luck.
I will say not all games have this problem though, Rainbow Six Siege and Fifa 18 for example run smooth.
Games that have had the issue are PUBG, GTA V, Bioshock Infinite, Fortnite, Dying Light, Arkham Origins, Ghost Recon: Wildlands, I'm sure there are others but as you can see, most games it happens.
I've watched multiple YouTube videos and guides but nothing works, can anyone here give me any insight to fixing this problem?
My Specs:
Ryzen 1700 with Stock Fan ran at Stock speed.
GTX 1080
16GB Corsair RAM at 3000mhz
GIGABYTE AB350 Gaming 3 Motherboard
250GB Samsung SSD
XFX 550W PSU
1TB Seagate HDD
Cheers guys.
