Sudden FPS Dips Stuttering

[jason782008]

when i play games such as csgo or fortnite my fps drops from 300 to 200 for a second and this causes the game to lag it, happens randomly and every few seconds the fps will just go down for a moment then return to the normal 280-300 but in that second the stuttering lag is unbearable.

What I have tried:
-Changing various settings in nvidia ctrl panel.
-Putting vsync on
-uninstalling steam/csgo reinstalling
- putting a fresh install of windows 10 on my system (deleting everything)

My Rig:
CPU i5 8600k
Ram Corsair 16gb DDR4
GPU MSi Geforce 1080
PSU 650W Gold
mobo Asus prime Z370-p

My PC is only several months old. The temperatures are always below 60c while playing these games.

Your CPU is the weak link. It's called "bottlenecking." Basically, the CPU can't keep up with the game. Turn the graphics up.

Hi, I feel your pain, i just upgraded my rig a few months ago
i7-7700K) MSI z270 gaming pro carbon
Corsair 16Gb 3200Mhz
EVGA 1000W PSU

ive also tried those steps you listed.
and i am getting the same issue with the stutter/lag. one question do you notice this when you are on you desktop screen? whenever i am moving my mouse to over to a folder or something i get the same stutter lag.

In game: should be at 60fps (Monitor is 60hz) i'll be running fortnite and i get 60fps, then after a few seconds i get the stutter/lag, occurs every 3 seconds. i am assuming this is what you are seeing?


if this issue was resolved how did you fix it?
