good PC performance issues

[pickarick50]

I recently built a new PC. i5 8600k (not overclocked), 32g gskill ram, and a MSI gtx1060 3gb. When I launch games like Rocket League or CS:GO, roughly half of the time the game looks very choppy but the frames still read 250 for RL and 300 for CS. If I end the game and restart it, normally it does not fix this issue BUT sometimes it does. Normally I have to restart my entire PC 1-3 times before the game launches normally. The frames always read normal, I don't see any spikes in my CPU or GPU. Essentially, I have not noticed a pattern and I am very frustrated. Someone, PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO FIX THIS. It almost looks like the resolution of the game is lowered, and its locked at 30-60fps because I'm used to taking advantage of my 144hz monitor. If it matters the monitor is an AOC 144hz Freesync G2460PF. I run RL in 1080p.

Try removing the gpu driver using DDU and then install the latest driver.

This is a new pc, is it a fresh install of Windows and are all drivers up to date?

Also check your HDD or SSD? is it OLD and having issues. and if you have an HDD change to a SSD as that may help

Make sure you have the latest BIOS and current drivers for your motherboard.

Disable game bar or remove it. Sometimes just disabling isnt enough. Can always get it back but you have a look at the dramas people have with game bar.
