So I don't really know where to post this so might as well post it in the power supply section i suppose.
So last week i replaced my power supply from the supernova G2 650w to the Supernova G6 850W, but ever since i got the pc back, i have been noticing those stutters that would come for some reason, and when it happens my headset would start making static noise for some reason.

When i restart my pc those stutters are gone actually until I turn off my pc. So am not really sure what is going on with this and i need help to figure out how to fix this issue.
My BIOS, GPU drivers and Windows 10 are fully up to date.

Thank you in advance to whoever will reply.

Doubt it's the PSU, but I suppose it could have either bad output or a bad connection.

Start by double checking all of your cable connections. Especially the PCIe connectors on the card. If that doesn't work, switch the old PSU back in. Should be easy since the cables are the same pinout.

Yes the only thing that i changed was the PSU.
The problem is, currently i dont have the time to switch to the old PSU, since i have my uni finals sadly.
I might just really take the PC to the store i bought the psu from and let them check since it has 1 year warranty from them.

The other weird thing that i noticed, for some reason when my GPU fans hit around 1k RPM it also gives me this issue even though the temp is at like 56 which is completely normal, am starting to think this PSU is maybe faulty? but i will let them know that as well
