i just got a new MSI GeForce GTX 1660 TI VENTUS XS OC. on the 1st day of trying it out i had an issue that my gpu usage drops to 0% and the game freezes entirely for around 5 seconds. every 2 minutes.i tried installing an older driver which is 446.14 and it fixed it for a week and then the problem came back. but this time it happens much less frequently. 1 time every 1 hour. but it still bothers me because it was working perfectly before.
this is my specs
MSI GeForce GTX 1660 TI VENTUS XS OC
Intel core i5 3550 12gb ram
Gigabyte h61m-s2pt
500w psu
and this is what i tried so far
-prefere maximum performance in Nvidia control panel
-disabling windows gamedvr
-downgrading the drivers
-DDU and reinstall the drivers
-turning window's pci express link sate power management off
-upgrading motherboard's chipset
-emptying ram standby list
i pretty much tried everything i could find online but nothing seems to be fixing it. this happens in every game if it's gpu demanding or not
