Recently, I've been experiencing problems playing Rainbow Six Siege. The game would stutter and frames would drop from 160+ down to 100-120 ish sometimes(usually happens every game or every other) and the red/yellow squares symbols in-game would popup and flash. I have my game settings at Competitive setting, which is everything on LOW except Texture Filtering, LOD Quality, and T-AA 100/100(sometimes off)
My PC specs:
Ryzen 7 1700(3.2ghz)
EVGA GTX 1070 SC Black Edition 8gb ACX3.0
16gb ram 2400mhz
2TB hybrid HD
240gb SDD
EVGA SuperNova B2 Bronze 850w
My GPU is OCed, +125 C and +350 M and +0 voltage. My GPU temp never goes up over 80 degrees and I have the fan set to go 100% speed once 70 degree hits. With my CPU, I have it OCed to 3.7 and temp never goes over 40 degrees(I have NZXT liquid cooling)
Whenever Im in the middle of the game, my GPU and CPU % Usage would be balanced. Usually 80% - 80%. Could this be the problem? I thought that GPU's are supposed to be higher and should be at 90%+ or 99%? What could the problem be? Could it be that my GPU is dying or? Any suggestion/tips?
I've reinstalled the game, I've reinstalled my drivers, I've updated my BIOS, and I've updated Windows.
I've tried messing with NVIDIA control panel and game settings, and it still does it no matter what settings.
Edit: I have a 144hz FreeSync monitor but I have the FreeSync turned off, same with Nvidia's "GSync Compatible" option in NVIDIA control panel
