i9-9900k / 2080ti freezing / lagging randomly

[OG_Mega]

Hey all, 

 

Built a new computer about a month ago but have been noticing some weird issues while gaming - specs are posted at the bottom.

 

For example, games will randomly freeze for a split second, I'm talking .1s, just enough to matter in high-stress situations.

 

I have XMP enabled on MSI, and open Dragon Center when the computer starts. I haven't overclocked anything manually, only through the motherboard / Dragon Center (gaming mode).

 

CPU-Z currently reading 1.162V-1.17V at 4722.9 MHz. 32GB memory at 4321.0 MHz. CPU temp ranges from idle ~35'c > 62'c under load, and GPU is around the same. 

 

Any suggestions? Thanks!

 

EDIT: It's never been this bad before, but now the computer is constantly freezing for <1 second at a time, if i go to X out something mouse doesn't move then zooms to where it should be. Any ideas?
