This issue hasn't occurred before on any platform, so please forgive me in advance if I overlook something.
The stutter appears irregularly every ten seconds, sometimes causing a brief freeze that might trigger a video save if necessary. It seems more frequent in offline play across two different houses, both equipped with power line adapters, which makes me question whether it's related to the internet connection.
I've also experienced this problem at two different PC shops; they claimed to have fixed it, but it didn't work. The main concern is that it can take up to an hour to notice, and it often happens even when CPU and GPU temperatures are low, suggesting overheating isn't the cause.
Details of my system:
- GPU: 5070 Ti
- CPU: i7-14700KF
- Motherboard: Asus Tuf Gaming Z790-Plus WiFi
- RAM: 32GB Corsair 5600
- Power Supply: 750w Corsair (gold rated)
- SSD: WD SN850 M.2 1TB (OS)
I've tried numerous solutions, including swapping out two different graphics cards, using a 12th gen i5 CPU, and reinstalling drivers after uninstalling and reinstalling them. I also used DDU to uninstall and reinstall drivers, checked multiple drives by running them on another computer, and even had screens flash black with Discord popping up, indicating NVida HD audio issues. I resolved the problem by installing custom GPU drivers instead of Express.
Over the past two months, I've forgotten many other settings and configurations.
I'm currently puzzled because I had a completely different motherboard, GPU, CPU, RAM, and M.2 slot. The only remaining thought is perhaps an unusual power supply issue, especially since the 750w unit might not be sufficient.

Did you check the performance monitor and task manager to identify changes around the time the issue happened?

Using the nvida app, the lows drop by about 1% and become even lower as the situation worsens. I can see this clearly at 40, but it gets reduced to around 6.

I'm not sure what you're referring to. Could you clarify where you're checking for this information? Are you looking in Performance Monitor or Task Manager?

Guess I still don't understand, I'm curious as to what is changing when you view performance monitor and task manager.

I haven’t used the performance monitor yet, but I’m open to learning more if you have a link. I checked the task manager during operation and didn’t notice any significant changes.

Searching for "how to use performance monitor" provides numerous links. You'll want to examine various parameters to observe changes during issues. This should help you identify the cause and narrow down troubleshooting steps. Randomly swapping parts without reason often leads to frustration. If you gain more details, it will be easier for a local shop to assist you.

Hey sorry, didn't manage to reach it for a while. I didn't notice any significant changes in the performance monitor during stutter events—no spikes or drops in the graphs were obvious. When using the nvida overlay monitor, I observed that the frame rate dropped by about 1%.

It seems like you're dealing with a complex setup. Let's start with the basics. Make sure the BIOS is updated, then reset the CMOS. Run the system using default settings. If everything works smoothly without stutters or freezes, you can adjust performance later based on hardware capabilities. Avoid pushing the system too hard, as this could cause issues like stutters, crashes, or BSODs. Check all power connections and video cables, and consider reseating RAM or the GPU. An 850-watt PSU is usually sufficient, but a 1000-watt unit might be better if you're heavily overclocking. Use HWINFO during gaming to monitor system performance and temperatures. The event viewer in Windows can help identify faults, often marked with red Xs. This should help pinpoint the problem so you can fix it and enjoy your PC again. Cheers!
