So i just finished my 2nd pc build. and when i tried playing a game of cs2 i got many lag spikes/stutters (from around 140-200fps down to around 50-70) as well as input lag (basically when i pressed space to jump it took like 2-5 seconds before it happened on screen). This has never happened to me before, any tips to try help this/ tests to run to try find the error.
Could it be that it is because im only running the 8-pin from the psu to the motherboard for the cpu? (it has one 8-pin and one 4-pin. After asking on reddit and looking at other people asking this would be okay as long as i am not overclocking (which i am not))
Temps were also fine during this max cpu temp was around 50-60 and max gpu temp was 60 (hotspot was 81)
specs:
Motherboard: Asus rog strix b760-f
Cpu: Intel i5-14600k
Cpu cooler: NZXT Kraken pro 360
Ram: 2x8gb ddr5 Kingston fury rgb 5600mhz
Gpu: Asus rog strix 2070 super AD
Psu: Corsair RM850
