Question Small stutter shortly after launching certain games?

I've noticed that while playing specifically "the finals" and "exoprimal" shortly after i launch the game my whole pc will drop to around 5fps and be generally really laggy, the sound will still come out like normal though. After that's done after around 30 seconds my game will suddenly be fine and it won't do this behavior afterwards until I close and relaunch the game.

Not sure (full disclosure) about what may be happening.

However, you can learn more by opening Task Manager or Resource Monitor before launching the game.

Use both tools but only one tool at a time.

Open the tool and leave the tool window open and observable before launching the game.

Observe first before launching the game and then again when the game is launched.

What changes?

My sense is that launching the game may be triggering some other app to run.

Look in Task Scheduler as well.

I ran them both again and the only thing that happened was a strange spike of cpu usage. Also something that slipped my mind was that those are the only two games that I currently play that use "easy anti cheat"
