I've been having issues with my computer for a while where I get frame skips randomly, it's not unplayable but it's very annoying. I have a clip where you can see the frame lag actually happen. It happens around 8 seconds, sorry plays.tv is all I have.

I have ran games without plays.tv and this has happened as well so I don't think it's that but i'm not sure.

Here is what my MSI Afterburner settings are, they're default, I haven't touched anything.

I don't think temperatures are an issue either, the GPU and CPU haven't gotten over 65c at most.

Here is an image of GPU Usage taken from Afterburner. The frame skipped happened and I took a screenshot of the usage as soon as it did. The CPU temperature was 41c when I took the image, just didn't want to scroll down afterburner.

I mainly play multiplayer games, but I will try Rise of the Tomb Raider and see if it happens.

Here is the Valley Benchmark.

I didn't notice any frame drops when running that, so maybe it's a connection issue? But it doesn't seem like "lag" cause in that video it was like a literal drop to like 1 frame, but i'm not sure.
