Hello! Y'all have always been helpful so I thought maybe you could help me with this new, and very annoying problem. Starting the past week, my GTAV has started stuttering randomly throughout gameplay. I will be getting 60 FPS then it drops to 5-10 for about 5 seconds then hops back up. This cycles every about 30 seconds and really messes up my ability to play the game. This also happens to other games as well. I never thought I was getting full performance from my hardware but now this is just insane. It even lags when entering the Menu. I've seen videos with people running ULTRA graphics with my same hardware and getting 100+ FPS. Any help would be much appreciated.

THX Yall!!!!



Specs:

3700X 4.2 GHZ (Standard Boost),
2080TI EVGA XC,
750W PSU,
16GB 3200Hz Corsair Ram,
Operating System on 512GB M.2 NVMe SSD,
and my games are on a 512 GB SSD.

Solution
I've seen a couple of threads similar to this where they solved it by removing the graphics card and cleaning the pci-e contact traces, blowing out dust from the slot before reinstalling it.

May not work but worth a shot.
