Question Can a low-watt PSU cause microstuttering in games?

[COSMINiftime1705]

Hello guys.I experience microstuttering for a while.I changed my motherboard with an Aorus Z690 Elite DDR4,i changed my CPU with an I7-12700KF,and my GPU is an RTX 3060 TI,with 32GB RAM DDR4,2 SSD Samsung 980 PRO and 2 HDD and i still got microstuttering even with G-sync capable monitor.The only thing that i didn't changed is my PSU,and my PSU is a Seasonic of 550watts,80 Gold.I should change my PSU too?I want to mention that i have a liquid cooler for my CPU with 3 vents ,and a lot of lights in my PC

Are BIOS and GPU drivers up to date?

Yes..they are...and I think that my PSU is a bit too low....but I don't know for sure...that's why a asked here...to found out if is worthy to buy one of 850 Watts

PSU's can cause microstuttering, and since your system is a bit psu demanding, i would try swapping it out for smth like a RMx 750, partly to fix the issue, and partly to have more headroom for future upgrades.

well,i changed everything in my PC...i thought that was thermal throttling and i changed my cooler with an 360mm liquid cooler,but in the end this was not the cause....and my temperatures are all normal.So is not about thermal throttling...maybe a photo of my PC would help you?to notice better if i should do a PSU change?even counter strike 1.6 have stutter...is insane...

A picture wont be neesed, this issue is software or PSU related, try swapping out the PSU for smth like RMx750, see how it goes

if this will be the solution..it will be the end of 2 years of unknown microstuttering..i hope this will work

i will come back with an answer after the switch if that's ok with you

if this will be the fix,i would finally be able to enjoy a smooth gaming experience....but it would be too great to be true

When do wattage of the PSU isn't enough, the unit would shut down and not cause stutters.

What's the RAM configuration and at what speed is the RAM set?

 

[COSMINiftime1705]

I have 32 Gb of ram of 4 sticks ,and every stick got 8 GB of ram with 3200 speed

Honestly I don't know what to change anymore in this PC to get rid of stutter...

I got 2 sticks with the name of ,,Hyperion fury" and the other 2 honestly I don't know the name because I was not the one who put them...I know that all 4 got a speed of 3200 and are DDR4.I will run the test when I got home and I will put the results here... honestly I am at the point where i think to sell my PC just because of the stuttering...i don't know what to do anymore...
