My PC was running well until I upgraded my ram from 8gb dual channel to 16gb dual channel. Games that were stuttering due to low ram were resolved but now for some reason I am having frame drops. I started monitoring temps and usages when I noticed that frame drops where happening when the gpu usage goes from like 99% to like 92%.
I tried these things :1)First I thought it was ram so I switched back and issue stayed there. So I switched back to 16GB and resettled cmos and updated BIOS(it did nothing)(btw I did a mem diagnostic and got no errors)
: 2)Then I thought it was a driver thing from my GPU so I used DDU for like 2 times and didn't do anything so I reinstalled windows and my games, the frame dropping reduced a bit but it stayed there.
My specs are: I5-9400F
GTX 1660 SUPER
16GB DDR4 (2x8)
1TB HDD
222GB M.2 SSD
450 WATT PSU corsair
I don't think its a hardware issue because a few weeks ago I had a freezing issue and since I had warranty I returned my PC and it was not a hardware issue(now warranty expired so I am trying to resolve the issue myself_)
