[SOLVED] Stuttering FPS during gaming

Hey, so I've been having issues for a while now with stuttering/unstable, and sometimes even quite low FPS (during certain games) while gaming.

I think I have a pretty decent PC, so I'm not sure what could be causing these issues.

My specs
CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 2700 8 core processor + Wraith Spire
GPU - NVIDIA Geo-Force RTX 2070 Super
RAM - Corsair Vengeance DDR4 32 GB ram
Motherboard - Aorus X570

I normally set my graphics settings on most games to either medium or high, which the pc should be able to run? The FPS however drops as low as 20-30, even lower in games like Minecraft where it drops as low as 10. Something like Fortnite for example is difficult to play because sometimes I'll get around 140 FPS then it'll crash to around 20, then back up again. It makes things really stuttery, and messes up my movement.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?

Also as a side note, sometimes when I am streaming or recording footage via OBS, I get a message saying the Encoder is overloading, is this tied into the same reason I am having FPS struggles?

Thanks in advance for your help.
Let me know if you need any more information 🙂

this step by step in order, for better optimized performance (and avoid any issues after upgrade):
  • Disconnect from internet
  • Uninstall gpu driver DDU (clean and do not restart).
  • Uninstall all the processors (is a must, should be 16 on yours, also when it asks for restart, click on no) on device manager like this:

    and the chipset driver/software in control panel (if there is none just skip)

  • restart the pc to bios, and update to the latest bios. Then go to bios again after update and load default or optimized settings, find AMD SVM and IOMMU options, enable them (if the option is only auto and disable, just leave it auto), set your XMP/Manual OC back then save and exit.

  • boot up to windows and install the latest Chipset driver, reboot and connect to internet.

  • Install the latest nvidia driver.

    *do this all offline until reboot after installing chipset driver, also you may reboot to bios after all of this to set the XMP (and previous settings you did). Download needed files (highlighted word) before doing step 1, do the step by orders.

  • Run cmd as admin, then do chkdsk /x /f /r, after that do sfc /scannow

  • And check windows update (and optional updates) if there is any and install them (except chipset in optional update).

  • Make sure the psu connected to the gpu is 1 pcie cable per 1 slot (use main cable, not the branches/split) like this:
