Here are your details rephrased:
RAM: 8GB
CPU: Pentium G4400 at 3.3 GHz
GPU: GTX 1050 Aero (ITX)
Power Supply: 650W, 80+ certified
Storage: WD Black 7200 RPM, 1 TB HDD
Operating System: Windows 10 Home (64-bit)

I can play Fortnite without issues in terms of frame rate, but it occasionally lags for about 10 to 20 seconds every couple of minutes. I've noticed others on YouTube running Fortnite with the same setup without any stuttering. This seems to be a problem only with Fortnite, not with other games like Battlefield or any others.

No, it's not a new hard drive.

Check if the processor or graphics card is running too hot.

He has a similar build and faces the same issues. His system runs an i5 processor, 8GB RAM, a GTX 960 with plenty of power. He has a 500GB HDD spinning at 5400 RPM and uses Windows 10. He can play League of Legends, CS:GO, Minecraft, and other games at 60+ FPS, but his performance drops to around 200 FPS. Fortnite runs smoothly at medium settings, though he still experiences frame drops and crashes. His first game launch often fails, with textures failing to load. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Check for any background programs or firewalls that could affect the game. Consider using Windows gaming mode or a reliable app like Razer to minimize interference.
