In games, FPS decreases by one frame, then returns to full speed, but this results in a very obvious stutter effect.

I also have a second screen. Both displays run at 119.98 Hz.
CPPC was a solution for Ryzen CPU issues in Windows some time ago. It might not be functional currently, but enabling it can improve performance. Try it out! Go to Advanced settings, locate an option such as AMD CBS (or Chipset), and choose it. Within AMD CBS, select NBIO Common Options, then SMU Common Options. You should now see CPPC settings available, with both "CPPC" and "CPPC Preferred Cores" visible.
I've turned them on in Afterburner, yet they don't appear on the screen—either as words or charts. It's unclear what's missing.
It might help if XMP is turned off because it could resolve performance issues related to memory usage. I assumed faster RAM would be better, but sometimes disabling certain features optimizes stability.
XMP serves as an internal boost for your memory to reach its claimed performance, yet it doesn’t guarantee every RAM module will perform consistently or that two modules can work together smoothly. As with all overclocking, there’s a small chance involved, though minimal in this case. When I purchase RAM, I often buy several sticks—usually 4 to 6—and only use the best pair under XMP or custom voltage settings. Afterward, I sell, exchange, or discard the rest. From the last 16 tested sticks, only about seven remained fully stable in dual-channel setups with XMP active. Generally, most modules should work well with XMP in around 95% of cases, meaning you’re likely just encountering a handful of exceptions.
