Hello
I assemble a PC using the following components:
ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming WiFI II
Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3600 Mhz C18 32GB (2x16)
Crucial P3 1 Tb
AMD 5800X3D
Zotac RTX 4070
Corsair RM850x

I recently switched the CPU, GPU, and power supply. I formatted everything to ensure a fresh setup.
Unfortunately, the gaming experience isn’t satisfactory.
I mainly play Fortnite, using performance mode with a 1080p 144Hz monitor.
Other titles behave similarly.
The game runs smoothly, but every half minute it occasionally skips frames.
Afterburner settings show both GPU and CPU usage are low (about 20-30%).
It’s unclear if this is stuttering, bottlenecking, or something else.
I attempted higher settings, but the issue persists.
The problem appears only during games.
What might be causing it?

I’m also considering a new monitor, wondering if that could help resolve the issue.
I’m unsure whether to opt for a 175Hz 1440p or a 240Hz 1080p display, since I prioritize higher refresh rates and Fortnite performance mode.

Turn on XMP/EXPO if missing and check for enhancements.

I should do this in BIOS?

When I get access to the PC, I'll check it. I'm not home at the moment.

I attempted. The "AiOverclock Tuner" was configured to "Auto," but the setting in "D.O.C.P" remained unchanged.
🙁
