Unless it matches the exact model CPU you're using, you might end up creating more complications. You'll need to turn Windows back on after the CPU change, as this isn't always simple. Additionally, since Windows sets itself according to the platform it's installed on, switching the CPU model may require a fresh installation if needed.
I'm not confident that adjusting the CPU will resolve the problem; it seems more like a software-related issue. I recommend performing a clean boot of Windows. Begin by disabling all auto-start applications through Task Manager, then restart and check if the stutters persist. After that, use msconfig to turn off third-party drivers for items you can manage without, restart, and observe if the issue continues.
Since LatencyMon pointed out an audio driver problem, start by turning off all audio-related third-party services. If that doesn't help, continue disabling each third-party service one by one (rebooting each time) to determine which is responsible for the stutters.
This process will be time-consuming and tedious, but it's the most effective way to pinpoint the cause of these stutters.
I ordered the identical CPU. Last afternoon I performed a clean Windows reinstall via USB, then installed only the newest drivers from the motherboard site and Nvidia. The exception was the Intel chipset software tool, which I also tested beforehand. I have also halted all startup processes temporarily; the PC is currently running only LatencyMon and Arc Raiders for testing purposes. I disabled my ASUS and Armory Crate from BIOS to prevent them from installing on the new Windows if they were the cause. The stutters persist.
Check if turning off third-party services in msconfig stops the stutters.
I can't display or provide actual screenshots. However, you can view a latency monitor from LatencyMon by accessing its interface and checking the available screenshots or dashboard views.
