I have a high end pc, and in every single game I get bad stuttering.
I was getting it on my rtx 3090 and went to a 6900xt, still got it.
Got a new PSU ( Super Flower Leadex Platinum SE 1000W )
Upgraded my ryzen 5 3600 to a ryzen 9 5900x. Upgraded to a x570 taichi, 32gb of ram, a 2tb 980 pro, still happens. The only thing that has been constant throughout these upgrades is ryzen.
Do you think this could possibly be a ryzen issue? I am now wondering if I should go to intel and see if that fixes it, but I wanted opinions before I went through that nightmare.
Its the only thing I can think of at this point, it was happening on my old ryzen 5 3600 machine, everything on my current pc is new and its still happening. This didnt happen when I had a 2500k

I have watched temps in HWmonitor, theyre all fine. Ive set all cores to 3.6ghz on my cpu so theyre not all jumping around. Different ram. Putting settings on lowest they can go.

Is there a software that could turn off absolutely all processes and everything running except the game to make sure it's not a software issue? I'm running out of things to think of
 
That's why I crossed out the cable question. I didn't really think that one through.

There was the earlier Latencymon results pointing towards kernel drivers, but the C drive is an NVMe - that doesn't use any cables.
The friend has similar hardware, but experienced similar symptoms? SUPPOSEDLY, all that's different is the cpu and motherboard... but SUPPOSEDLY, an ex-HDD later, and there's no problems?
IDK... it feels like we're still at step 1...
Anyone else you can ping that may know about this and maybe has not seen it yet? They can try to throw their hat in the ring like @Rouge_One or something?

Have been playing games for 8 hours today, havent had 1 stutter in any of my games. So happy.

Yes I had SAM enabled. I used to use AMD auto detect to install chipset drivers.
My NVME is fine, as I have run games on the nvme, my ssd, and an external HDD with both systems.

Look at this now - this is the game that would stutter the worst. Not a single stutter
