Hey all,
I had to reinstall Windows 11 on my PC and before doing so, games were running with no issues at all (Was on Windows 11 as well) however, after reinstalling and playing the regular games i always play and previously ran with no issues, there's now always a random micro spike that lasts for 0.5 milliseconds where the pointer of the mouse gets slow and the game sounds like it's being played in slowmo then it continues normally again. This keeps happening randomly when playing around every 30 to 45 mins or so while playing.
I didn't change anything in hardware
, all is same, checked Task Manager while playing as well and when it happened, everything seems normal. CPU usage doesn't go past 40 to 60%, GPU is also at normal temps and usage is fine as well. Doesn't indicate anywhere that there are background apps that makes the usage higher or anything to make that spike happen
I read in some other subreddits that it can be a GPU Accelerator problem that should be disabled in Windows 11 if it happens, i found it enabled by default so I disabled it and tried to game again, same problem. Didn't solve anything.
Tried to uninstall my graphic drivers using DDU and reinstalled them. Same issue. Even tried to get the drivers that I had before reinstalling Windows 11 and installed them, same issue keeps happening.
Has anyone went through such thing? Is there a fix to this? Keep in mind again that this started to happen after having to reinstall Windows 11 as before reinstalling it games and Windows 11 ran just fine with no issues.

how were you able to reinstall windows?
was there any overclocking involved?
were all drivers reinstalled?
tested userbenchmark.com and shared the outcome link.
verified the system integrity afterward.

Normal USB setup process
I didn't have any overclocked hardware before. I installed the newest drivers, but nothing changed, so I removed the drivers and reinstalled the original versions I had before. The outcome was the same.

I'm considering it might be related to Windows 11 23H2's Feature Enablement package or one of the disabled features (I disabled too many). I uninstalled that feature package, then tried the USB installation again on 22H2, re-enabling those options. I'll test games and keep the thread updated.

Edit: It was the Windows 11 23H2 Feature Update. I want to mark this as resolved. Thanks!
