Windows Lags when GPU is 100%

Full Specs

Windows 10 pro x64

5950x
32gb Trident Z Neo

3080ti EVGA FTW3 Hybrid
1000w Seasonic GPU

C:\ WD_BLACK 2TB SN850 NVMe
Game Drive:\ Samsung 970 pro 2TB
GIGABYTE X570 AORUS PRO WIFI AM4 AMD X570

So the PC should be astronomical overkill for most tasks, and in games it's fine. But if a game is open and running the GPU to 100% everything else, obs, discord, chrome, start menu, everything is like 10fps or less. So I can't stream, I can't even multitask.

the same behavior is not present on my old slower PC. When it's maxed out on GPU it still streams smoothly, and windows doesn't lag. Like it knows how to manage multitasking properly. But yes, this is a work around, using afterburner or something to make the FPS low enough to account for overhead, but that doesn't always work.

Using fTPM and Secure Boot?

I had recently updated the bios, but I checked again for good measure, it was up to date. So randomly I opened the gigabyte bios utility to see if I could find out of it reported fTPM and Secure Boot, it doesn't, but it did report there was a bios update that WASNT listed on the website. It significantly helped. I know Secure Boot is on, windows keeps harassing me to go to win11 (it won't if you turn off secure boot) but I haven't checked fTPM. It's still being a little weird, but manageable weird. I will investigate further.
