So I finally completed building my PC about 4 weeks ago, and just last week, I've started getting these frame drops that happen literally every second that makes most games unplayable.
I was playing CS:GO and I just played a comp game. I joined another, and that's when it started happening. It spread to every single game. In Rust, it's extreme to the point where it makes a tractor noise every time it freezes or lags which is pretty much every half second.
I started looking around on forums and reddit to find a solution to my problem. All I found was simple things like defragging my hard drives (didn't work), looking through BIOS for something that stands out (didn't work), lowering settings in-game (didn't work), checking and watching my temps on everything (was fine), checking my fan settings (was fine), running an anti-virus, Malwarebytes (no threats detected), clearing my registry in CCleaner (didn't work), looked through my Radeon settings (was fine).
Now the only solution I can think of is because I only have 1 stick of 8gb RAM, which I will test soon. Planning on getting these: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2666mHz. But if there's any other possible solutions that could be software, I'm open to.
Here's my Windows 10 Pro specs:
X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming Motherboard
Ryzen 5 1600 CPU with a Hyper 212 EVO
8GB RAM DDR4 2400mHz Kingston HyperX
AMD Radeon RX 580
Corsair Builder Series CX600 V2
Thanks for reading!
