Question 3080 ti dropping to 1/4 fps after a couple hours post pc upgrade

[Jimara]

I just upgraded my pc to a 9800x3d, 32gb of ddr5 6000 and and msi mag a850 power supply, I have a 360 aio, and have no cooling issues and am not experiencing thermal throttling
My issue: after playing a game for a couple hours I will randomly get my fps dropping to around 30-60 and staying there, no matter what I did it didnt change until I researched drops in gpu power usage while still staying at 100% clock and mem speed etc and figured out that I can fix the issue by lowering my gpus memory clock to -200 mhz, I'm thinking maybe it's a power delivery issue of some sort but I can't figure out the issue, I've tried reconnecting all of my cables to my gpu and swapping their order etc but the issue persists, any ideas? thanks.

CPU: 9800x3d
CPU cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360

SSD/HDD: 2tb teamgroup
GPU: MSI Ventus 3x 3080 ti, only old part in the PC
PSU: MSI Mag A850 GL, new
Chassis: Lian Li 216
OS: Windows 11
Monitor: Corsair 240 hz 1440p Oled

Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

You speak of upgrading, did you reinstall the OS after the platform migration? I'm assuming no since you didn't mention dropping in a new NVMe SSD to your platform.

I did reinstall OS and got a new m.2 ssd, it's also seated in the first, recommended slot by my mobos user manual, I should also mention I upgraded to an msi mag x870 board.

What are the GPU and CPU operating temperatures at idle and under load?

Is the motherboard BIOS fully op to date.

If OCing or under-volting anything...stop. Full stock. No BIOS tweaks. How is performance from a known baseline?

What's the CPU looking like while the issue is occurring? When you get stuck to 30-60 fps is it stuttery or is it as smooth as that FPS normally feels? Have you tried using DDU to reinstall the graphics drivers? Have you tried changing the PCIe speed setting for the graphics card in the BIOS settings?

BIOS is up to date, the cpu is < 60 c and the gpu tops out at 82c, I was running fully stock clocks on the gpu and PBO 2 on my cpu and the only thing that was working to resolve the frame drops was decreasing my gpu memory clock by 200 mhz.

Cpu is running normally, 5.4ghz < 60c, normal usage since I'm gpu limited. It is stuttery when it happens like spiking in between 30-60 range. I haven't changed any PCIE settings and I freshly installed the drivers yesterday.

I'll try that PCIe setting and get back to you, I just re inserted my card and made sure it was properly locked and I couldn't get the issue to happen again in kombustor I'll check back if it pops up again.

worked fine 3 days ago in my old pc lol, only guaranteed working tested part.
