Question New to PC Build and can't figure out what is wrong with my setup!

Hello everyone. New to PC Building and i just can't figure out what is wrong with the pc i built. A couple issues i have been having:

What is wrong :
-When i boot my computer up it reinstalls all my USB's like they were never in my pc before.

When playing certain games i can feel some sort of stuttering very slightly or small micro stutters (Very apparent in games like rocket league)
Sometimes when loading up certain things Screen flashes and flickers
Occasionally (Very rarely) My keyboard or mouse will be disconnected and not recognized completely where I would need to turn off computer and restart.
Dragon Center never Saves my RGB on MOBO or stays the color red. (deleted that terrible program off my computer) I have done research and i know its bad.

What I've tried:
I have downloaded CPU-Z, HWmonitor and GPU-Z and really do not know how to tell if something is off. ( I will attach documents)
Cleaned old GPU driver and reinstalled fresh new driver from nvidia.com
Lowered Graphical Settings
Switched "P to Q on Asus 3090 ( Didn't do much)
Ran Memory Diagnostic Tool from Windows ( no issues)
Cleared CMOS

My devices are all pretty much brand new. I have a surge protector. Framerate is high. (What i feel a 3090 should be! ) so not sure if that is what's causing an issue. But i am so lost in where to diagnose the problem.
I am coming from a prebuilt Corsair i165 with a 19900k and 2080ti and i can feel like it is a lot smoother then my current custom pc build. I also use an
If anyone has suggestions on what i should do or look for please let me know. I am at a lost for words especially how expensive everything was. lol

Will the asiahorse extensions work on a 1000w psu, Msi z490 Godlike Motherboard, and 3090 ASUS Rog Strix? I just read a review stating it did not work ?
cables support 18awg. So new to all of this

I generally discourage extensions and adapters because of added resistance and with it heat and voltage drop.

I appreciate the feedback. I firstly disconnected the extensions then reapplied the same vga cables into the gpu. At first my rog strix had a red light above on of the vga cables . When I turned on the pc the gpu gave power BUT my monitor wasnt working. Luckily in my evga box I had three extra VGA cables and tried those. No blinking red lights and my monitor started to work again but still choppy gameplay on certain games.
