Hi everyone,
I'm new here and wanted to get some help from you, hopefully.
So I haven't had any trouble with the games I play for 3 years. Everything was perfectly fine, I'm also working for a game developer company and been using my own pc for some tests.
I started playing Atomic Heart with gamepass and everything was perfect, no lag no nothing. But when I tried to continue playing it at the start of this month, it was all stutters. So for a month now I haven't been able to play the game cause it is unplayable, I can't walk, I can't fight.. There was so much drop that it froze for a few seconds.
So I did some diagnostics, I used Prime95 for cpu and memory stress test, Furmark for gpu, also used Windows's own diagnostic tools and repairs like Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool, tried sfc /scannow etc. Updated every single driver I have. Also tested my HDD and SSD. And everything looks good except while Furmark was working we saw some stutters on the sides of the video, it's definitely there every few seconds. They are mostly 15 seconds apart. So when I checked the gpu from MSI window at the same time I realised there was this drops on Gpu usage. While it's working %100 or %70, it suddenly drops to %0. We're guessing this is the problem. At first we thought it was power related but now I don't know.
My system is like this:
Nvidia Geforce RTX 3070 (temp goes up to 60° at most)
AMD Ryzen 5 5600x with stock fan (during some games and stress test the temp goes up to 95° but no stutters while it is at this temp)
Corsair Vengeance rgb pro 3200 mhz 2x8 gb
B550-A PRO motherboard (no issues at all)
Corsair 750 w psu
Windows 10.
The sad thing is I haven't had any problem for 3 years and now I'm just unable to play any game without drops. Btw the fps drop is almost 50%. Oh and my monitors are Samsung 27" G7 1440p and LG Ultragear 1080p 27". Both have 144 hz refresh rate. I don't use Gsync anymore cause it was causing the monitors to restart every few minutes.
Something else we realized is that sometimes when a game is open at the background and I move the file explorers around they stutter and take few ms to change places.
So what I'm asking is what could cause this huge drop? Could this really be my GPU or could this power usage going down to 0 for a while be caused by something else? How can I pinpoint the issue?
