I bought a new computer today and it has some big problems when playing games where I get lagging every single time, but I should be able to play without any stuttering at all. My setup includes an Intel i9-9900k processor from MSI, a gaming motherboard with the name Gaming X and a GTX 1080ti card, some Corsair RGB RAM that holds 32GB of memory running at 3200Mhz, two 2TB Samsung SSDs using M.2 slots for fast storage, a 750-watt Corsair power supply unit called RMx to make sure everything gets the energy it needs, and an MSI motherboard model Z390 MEG ACE. I set my CPU's core clock speed right at 4.9 GHz with a Ring Ratio of Avx offset -3 volts for 1.340 on the voltage settings.

What game are you playing? What settings are your graphics cards showing? Do you want to know how hot your computer gets or if it is running slow? Is your BIOS up to date for the newest drivers?

My computer is running well, but the graphics card is getting hot while the game loads. The screen shows that Battlefield 5 uses 60 percent of my processor power and I'm playing on a 2560 by 1440 resolution.

You could put that on a shelf to help fix your problems. Adding more stuff to your overclocking setup would just make things harder. Have you also installed the right driver chips for your computer?

Yep, I installed the right chip driver for that.

I had bad graphics card settings coming up all the time while I played Battlefield for fifteen minutes. Both screens turned off but my computer was still working inside. Is a weak graphics card causing the stuttering? I bought brand new memory so I only suspect it's the graphics card problem.

Did you reset Windows and then run the new driver software for your new board? Is the monitor still connected to the graphics card? Does it work at that exact screen rate like the old one did?
