Try overclocking your 7700K first.

I would like to try not to mess up my PC and just skip the overclocking.

Even if you went out and bought the 9900K there is still a bit of overclocking needed to keep those FPS high. That being said if you did upgrade to the 9900K/9700K you'd also need to replace your motherboard to a Z390. And since you don't want to lower your graphic settings and don't want to overclock you choices are pretty limited. I just couldn't imagine spending like $500+ to limit you FPS dips when you have potentially free ways of fixing this. And no guarantee that getting the 9900K or 9700K would even fix your issue.

Well iRacing aint that resource heavy its just that Im just dropping low enough to effect me I got a temporary fix and I had to enable SMP which fixed the FPS issues a bit but lowered Night Shaders and Partice bits a little bit. other than that Im still at max running 100fps. If I overclocked Id prefer a proffesional to walk me through it on discord or teamviewer

Yes but I don't know how much of an improvement you'll see with those over your current setup.
