When a video and a game are running on my PC it causes stuttering
When a video and a game are running on my PC it causes stuttering
Whenever i have any game running, doesn't matter if its a new AAA game or 20 years old, if a video is playing in the background both the video and the game will just freeze for a few seconds. its not that my pc cant run it as why would a Ryzen 7 7700x and a 4600 ti struggle with watching a video? my pc runs perfectly if i just pause the video but as soon as i press play it'll start to stutter and freeze, even when the workload for anything has yet to go over 50%. I've tried disabling both hardware acceleration and the Nvidia in game overlay as those were the two most common solutions for other people but I just cant seem to find a fix or even what the issue is. Any help on why this is happening would be greatly appreciated.
