Hi guys, want to play Far Cry 5 but sometimes CPU spikes to 100% then whole PC is lagged and need to force restart PC, only happening in FC5
temperature seems fine to me, never goes up to 70°C, can it be also problem of Windows 11 ? played it for while on Win10 and never happend to me.

gigabyte h310 S2H bios version FQ
i7 9700k
32gb ddr4
rtx 2060 12gb drivers up to date
750w be quiet
m2 ssd and 2,5 sdd

If it only happens with FC5, then look for a FC5 patch or check the FC5 forums.
Is your motherboard bios current?
Sometimes there are applicable fixes.
bios was updated like 4 months ago so yes, it is latest, i looked for some hints on google but didnt find any fix, only things like everything need to be updated and look for temperature thats all
