@Shock123 I guess to offer something resembling a solution instead of badgering other people, I found a megathread on Reddit and it appears as Windows kept getting updated, more and more things were added or enabled by default. One of them that seemed to pop up a lot was the Game DVR feature, but considering that feature was implemented back in 2017, I'm not sure how much of an impact it still has today.
ill check it out, thanks!

Or they could try and see if this continues without internet access. If it does, your hypothesis is incorrect.
same thing happens, 100 percent the same if i play an online game vs an offline game. Same amount of freezes

Some other software accessing drive could cause this.
Pagefile is virtual memory. Some software need it to run. If you don't know what it is, then its not issue. Windows sets it to high enough by default (matching your RAM size).
If you have 2nd monitor, Task Manager works. If not, you can use MSI Afterburner, HWiNFO64, HWmonitor etc. to save graph. The things that interest me are drive usage, RAM usage and CPU/GPU usage (though these two should only reflect to two first ones).
I would call that micro-stutter. It can have many causes, like RAM. That was issue with my old system. Upgrading from 4gb to 8gb solved that, but I was 80%+ RAM usage all the time back then.
ill take a look at this later, i need to do some other things first, ill let you know if it helps!

Well then explain the following... Play in 1440p for best quality as that is the quality of the video. YouTube makes the gameplay look choppy but I assure you it is choppy-free gameplay.
Exhibit A...
This is a lobby with 20 people in it. FPS is around 68-80(mostly in the 70's).
Exhibit B...
Pretty much the exact same video, only this time, I kicked everyone out the lobby and am now in a solo lobby. FPS is now at 82-103(mostly in the 90's).
Conclusion, internet affects fps.
dude, a full lobby is obviously full of people, which means your cpu has to render more things, resulting in lower fps. An empty lobby literally has nobody in it, which means it doesn't have to work nearly as hard, which results in higher fps.

I checked and no softwares are installed on my hdd, only games are. I'm not entirely sure on how to enable a graph for each component using afterburner, maybe ill try a different software unless you know how to. And I also have 16gb of ram

FPS isn't internet related... and term "lag" is used for pretty much every performance issue related to games. Not just the original meaning which is for internet connection.
All drivers up to date? Games loading from SSD? Pagefile set to be enough (4gb+)? Can you monitor your hardware usage when these spiked occur? And are the spikes about fps dropping to sub-40fps numbers or just dropping 40fps from that 100fps+? What software do you have running on background?
All drivers are up to date as I know so far, games ran off of a 7200rpm western digital caviar blue hard drive, im not that tech savvy so im not sure what a "Pagefile" is. If you know of any apps that let you monitor in game while the lag spike occurs, that would be great. The lag spikes are usually half a second each, and actually freeze the game instead of lowering the fps, it happens so fast, my fps counter only goes down by like 10 instead of going to 0. Also, I only have the main softwares running that I need, like razer synapse for my mouse and keyboard. Also I have MSI afterburner running in the background too so i can monitor the temperatures. Discord is also usually running in the background.

Exactly what I'm telling you. Upgrade your internet and your fps will remain stable. All the games you listed are played online.
Play a game like BF1 offline in the campaign and record the gameplay using Shadowplay and post it here. Be sure to use MSI Afterburner to show everything while you game.
I don't really think ping or bad internet messes with your frames. Far cry 4, Far cry 5, and battlefield 1 on single player all still have random lag spikes.

Well there ya' go. Upgrade your internet speeds and the lag spikes will go away.
fps lag spikes, not ping

Do a quick speed test here... https://www.speedtest.net/
What does it show for your download and upload speed as well as your ping?

reinstall audio drivers, i had this problem about a month ago and reinstalling them fixed it
I'll do that quickly. But how come audio? How does it create lag spikes?

Hey, exactly 1 week ago I built myself a new pc, it's really fast and pretty high end. I realized each and every game runs at over 100 FPS, but randomly I get a lag spike almost every 10-20 seconds.
My specs are: 2060 6gb
i7 8700k
16gb of ram
if you need anything else, i'll put it in

I recommend you right click the Realtek audio, hit properties, check "disable all enhancements" in the enhancements / advanced tab. I may be slightly off with my specifics but I hope you get the idea.
already tried that, still nothing

first, make sure your headset is plugged in all the way, if that doesn't fix the issue then you should check the settings of your pc and optimize the sound coming out
they are plugged in all the way. Also, what do you mean by "you should check the settings of your pc and optimize the sound coming out"

I've always used headphones when gaming. I used them all the time on my old gaming laptop and the audio sounded crisp and clean. But now, i'm on a new pc, and the audio just sounds like your ears are plugged up with water and it just sounds really muffled. I honestly don't know what to do. Any help?
