Hi, only on startup. I hear the radiator fans going up as well. Can I avoid this?

Hello, So this have been bothering me for a while now, my frame rate and sound lags when I launch a game or heavy graphic program. I'm running Win 10 on an Intel i7 8700K with 16 gb ram dual channel 3200mhz, 500Gb SSD with a Geforce 1080Ti. All my drivers are updated and I get this every-time. This issue usually starts when I launch WoW or when League of legends leaves the champion select and launch the game. I also played BF1 and it did it too when the game leave windows to load the actual game (graphic loading). This is quite frustrating given the price my parts had cost me and the review saying they are great! I have overclocked my CPU to 4.8Ghz and I sometime overclock the GPU too with MSI afterburner. Regardless of when it's overclocked or stock the problem is there, sound lags and mouse stutters for 1~2 secs when the game boots. I hope there is an easy fix! please help!

Hi Everyone, So I worked hard and I gifted myself the best parts available in my country (Mauritius) and I tried to overclock. I watched a few guides on how to do this on YT and I tried. Although most videos shows that the 8700K can "easily" run at 5Ghz, I couldn't go more than 4.8 Ghz. Also most guides are made on ASUS bios and MSI is quite different (well i'm a noob) lol It's not that bad i know and It won't make much a difference BUT I just want to achieve this! Can you help me out please? So here are my specs (will put only the relevant parts for OC): CPU: 8700K MB: MSI GAMING PRO CARBON AC COOLER: Cooler Master MasterLiquid PRO 240 RAM: 2 x 8Gb G-Skill Ripjaw 5 DDR 4 3200Mhz Thanks
