For the stutters, try LatencyMon. It helps pinpoint the source issue. Go through the whole page to grasp its function. Usually you launch the app, begin data gathering, play a game that triggers the stutter, then return to LatencyMon and halt the collection. Check your ISR and DPC values. The ISR is the key area to monitor. https://www.resplendence.com/latencymon
I attempted it, and without entering a game, it seems you already face an issue. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ CONCLUSION Your system is struggling with real-time audio and other tasks. You might notice buffer underruns like drops, clicks, or pops. One or more DPC routines linked to a running driver appear to run too long. A possible cause could be power management—turn off CPU throttling in Control Panel and BIOS. Check for BIOS updates. LatencyMon has been tracking your system for 0:14:56 on all processors. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SYSTEM INFORMATION Computer name: DESKTOP-VKC68OD OS version: Windows 11, 10.0, version 2009, build: 26100 (x64) Hardware: MS-7E49, Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.

This includes scheduling, DPC execution, event signaling, and waking up threads from idle states. Highest measured latency to process (µs): 185890.90 Average latency (µs): 15.005072 Highest latency to DPC (µs): 185871.80 Latency to DPC (µs): 4.627944 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ REPORTED ISRs Interrupt service routines are built-in tasks that run when hardware signals occur. The longest ISR execution time is 128.990 µs.

These can interrupt audio streams, causing drops and clicks. Review Processes to identify affected programs. The highest pagefault count was 4419 for l-connect 3.exe. Total hard page faults: 4419. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ PER CPU DATA CPU 0 Interrupt cycle time (s): 3.569213 ISR max time (µs): 128.990 ISR total time (s): 0.229231 ISR count (250-500 µs): 767247 ISR count (all <250 µs) CPU 0 DPC max time (µs): 1688.90 Driver with longest DPC: nvlddmkm.sys - Highest total DPC time (%): 0.111536 Driver with longest total DPC: nvlddmkm.sys - Total time in DPCs: 0.039526 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It stems from the Nvidia GPU or its drivers. Reports indicate significant instability with 5080 and 5090 cards, and Nvidia is gathering input to pinpoint the problem and fix it in a later patch.
