GPU: GTX 1660 ti
CPU: AMD ryzen 5 2600
RAM: Corsair vengeance 2x8 3000mhz
MB: B450m aorus
Had this issue for a very loong time and it doesn't stop from ruining my 1% low and making games feel choppy. CPU doesn't get even to 30/40% usage and it just blows my mind that i can't figure out the issue with it. I'll provide more information if asked.

Make and model of your PSU and it's age? BIOS version for your motherboard? As for your platform, have you tried reinstalling your GPU drivers after removing them using DDU? When reinstalling your GPU driver, download the latest from Nvidia's support site and manually install said driver in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator(provided you're working with Windows 10).

PSU is a corsair cx650m and it's pretty new since my last psu broke just 6 months ago, for the bios version hasn't checked that out yet, but will if it's important. And for the drivers i actually tried to fix this problem a couple days ago by removing them in safe mode with the cmd but i still have the problem, should i use ddu?
