Hello,
I have made my new pc and started gaming at first the system was perfect but now after about 2 weeks usage my pc is starting to lag while gaming, the fps drops for certain games like Elden Ring and GTAV, as of now I have been playing these games more recently. the fps drops to 0-1fps and the screen freezes ever so often sometimes constant.
When looking into task manager I can see that my gpu usage drops from 60-80% to 3-10%, as if the pc is on idle screen. the cpu also drops usage but by like 5% I have updated all drivers and softwares, as well as bios. unplugged re plugged in gpu, made sure the gpu is mounted and all cable are connected properly. I have also reinstalled windows and reinstalled all drivers. The weird part is while doing stress tests there were no issue, I also did benchmarks on 3dmark as well as GTA's benchmarks still no issue or throttles. So I am out of ideas.
The issue did occur after installing a cpu contact, but I added a sufficent amount of thermal paste and the thermals for the cpu and gpu are fine. I also downclocked my cpu and gpu to its normal state and this still occurs.
