Hi, I'm hoping somebody has some suggestions on how to fix my issue:
So I built a PC with a 970 EVO nvme SSD a while ago, and after a few weeks or so, my PC became stuttery. For example, just making boxes on the desktop feels laggy, and moving windows around has visible stuttering, and if I try to play a game there's constant freezes every second.
I reformatted the SSD and the issue went away, only to return again about a week later. I eventually reinstalled windows once again and was very careful with what I was installing, and the problem happened again.
I wasn't sure what to do, so I took out that nvme SSD and used an older Sandisk 480 PLUS. I had no problems for about 3 months, then I didn't use my PC for about 3 days and when I loaded it up, the issue was back! I noticed it because I went to play a game, and when I loaded discord, the voices were lagging at the same time my pc was stuttering. So it seems like the issue isn't related to the harddrive...
I tried disabling all my drivers one by one to see if I could find an issue, as well as installing all of the drivers again, including removing the graphics driver with DDU and installing again.
I have also ran some virus scans, using the built in windows one and malwarebytes.
I really appreciate any help,
Thanks!
