hi,
i had just upgraded my pc and went from an i5-8700k to a ryzen 5 5600x with new motherboard, power supply, SSD cooling. upon starting it up and updating bios, chipsets, drivers i have been having none stop studdering from cpu going 100% util from nothing being open. i have no clue whats going on because everything just feels studdery, non responsive and just dirty.

Current specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 5600x
EVGA Geforce RTX 3070 FTW3
Gigabyte B550M AORUS PRO-P
Gskill Trident Z 2x8GB 3200mh RAM
Deepcool DQ850-M-V2L 850w power supply
Sabrent 2TB Rocket NVME PCIe 4.0 m
Windows 10 PRO

im not sure whats going on, ive tried running PBO or Auto OC but it still just feels wrong.
 
It's normal for Ryzen to boost aggressively to max clocks from idle. It's the way it's designed to work.

Be sure to update your motherboard BIOS to the latest. Also install the latest chipset drivers and get them from the AMD support site.

ive already done all of thse. just with chrome open everything is studdering hard and not responsive at all
 
Any of those bundled trashware utilities motherboard mfr's put on included CD's. They're notorious for messing up systems.

Also forgot but probably most important...did you do a clean install of Windows.

as for the motherboard utilities not that i know of. the only program im using is AMD ryzen master. When i built this computer i did fresh install of windows. though i did have RAM issues with 2 other sticks causing file corruption but since them ive ran SFC a few times to clean it up

SFC can only do so much. If you had defective memory it's very easy to imagine your system was hosed by it, I'd suggest doing a clean re-install.

I'd also un-install Ryzenmaster. It's not really necessary and itself is a problem, causing some of the issues you indicate. It's intended purpose is a utility for overclockers and enthusiasts to use for extreme overclocking demonstrations. It was never intended for 24/7 use so the fact it interferes with smooth routine operation isn't really an issue.
