Help! Stutters!!!!!!!!! RUN!!!!!!!

[JigglyPuff]

I've been having issues with my pc stuttering for no apparent reason, ever since i first upgraded from a 60hz monitor to my new xg32vq a 144hz monitor , few months back, everything ran beautifully at first. Suddenly my pc would experience stutters, these were not game specific or any software specific. I see these stutters even while just typin any documents or just casually using any software even on desktop my mouse jumps from places while every other functional button on my keyboard becomes useless for a few seconds, and then displays the result once the stutter ends.In each and every game i see varying degrees of stutters. Ive almost completely changed my whole setup trying to fix this issue

old specs:                              New specs:

2700x with wraith cooler        2700x with x72 Kraken

asus rog b350-f                     asus crosshair viii hero x570

16 gb trident z                       16 gb trident z( already checked by replacing ram sticks with other ram )

 msi rtx 2070 gaming z          msi rtx 2070 gaming z

dell 60hz monitor                   asus xg32vq 144hz monitor

wd 2tb hdd                             wd 2tb m.2 

corsair psu 450watts            gigabyte 700watt 

 

when the stutter occurs my gpu usage drops and then quickly gets back up, i've already changed to an aio because some threads said it was an over heating issue, still no fix. ive been living with this for some months now, plis help!

no, fortunately no audio lag. Just stutters on desptop and in games. I have cleaned installed my windows multiple times too, no fix.

Try disabling Asus Armoury Crate in BIOS in the Tool tab.

Have you tried disabling XMP? Could be a ram issue. If this helps. download Aida64 for view complete XMP/SPD info, like shown below, set timings and dram voltage manually in BIOS:

 

If not, you may need to reinstall windows again, but this time without internet.

Download windows from original source and newest version 1909: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

Stay offline when first booting into windows and disable automatic driver installation: https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/disable-automatic-driver-downloads-on-windows-10

Install newest BIOS: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-Crosshair-VIII-Hero/HelpDesk_BIOS/

Install drivers from asus: remember to install chipset driver version 5.12.0.38 before updating to 1.7.29.0115: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-Crosshair-VIII-Hero/HelpDesk_Download/

Put drivers on USB storage.

Install nvidia grahphics drivers, I can recommend this studio driver as it's extremely stable (2nd newest): https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/154342/en-us

Yeah, well.  You know? It sort of looks like a mobo issue to me. 

Have you updated BIOS and chipset drivers to latest version -> currently?

Did you do it in offline or and without automatic driver installation? Checked RAM etc?

Did you have internet when installing windows? If yes, then yes And turn off XMP and run auto speed, just while testing plz.

yes sir, they have been updated. Would be pretty weird if it was a mobo issue since i changed my mobo because i thought it could be my motherboard that's  messed up

Haha. I feel your pain, because I have had the same issues myself. If you have tested everything and installed everything offline. No internet to update anything, ram is completely stock on 2133/2400 at 1.2 volts at jedec timings etc, then I dont know..

That is AMD language for XMP. try disabling it and run AUTO. (just while testing) like this:

[Juular]

What PSU is that exactly ? I had very similar problems with one build when PSU was a complete garbage, guess it has smth to do with too much ripple or voltages out of specs.

Hmm, it's not that bad but definitely not okay for RTX2070. Do you have other PSU to check this PC with ?

Sadly no, and I kinda spent all my money on the motherboard and the aio, so getting a better one right now is definitely not an option and all my friends have lower wattage psu .

It's not about wattage, even your old Corsair 450 assuming it's CX\CXm would be better than this one.

but i did replace my 2070 with my friend's 1060 and i used ddu to uninstall the drivers and installed new ones for the 1060, the stutters were still there.
