sounds like you may have already done some "diagnostics". what are the full specs?

Can't do much to help you without knowing what your computer specs are. If you could list the full specs of the computer that would be great and help us to help you.

AMD Ryzen 5 3500 6-Core Processor                 3.59 GHz

16 gbs of ram installed

nvidia gtx 1650

Motherboard, Powersupply, Case, Storage Drive?

Disk space is maxed out? As in your drive is completely full?

 

Your PSU and motherboard should say what brand and kind they are on them, as for case that's a little trickier to determine. When the computer was bought did it not have a receipt or listing of what the specs are?

You ignored his question about disk space.

That means proprietary motherboard with a closed case. There are many issues with prebuilts of this type. Main ones being poor cooling(cases have almost zero airflow and low quality CPU coolers), and that they can be configured poorly, example being only one stick of most likely low speed 8GB single channel memory paired with a Ryzen CPU. Simply adding another 8GB stick can fix memory related slowness but it can also cause other issues if it is not compatible ram. Slower speeds, stability issues, negated performance, etc.

 

If your storage drive is full that can cause stuttering issues by itself, you never want to completely or even close to fill your drive.

 

With the fact that it's a pavilion desktop and most likely has very poor cooling another factor could be overheating and the computer thermal throttling components dropping your performance. And yet another possible factor that needs to be taken into account is the resolution and graphical quality you are trying to play at in games. GPU performance while gaming should be 90% plus usage, that's what you want. If your CPU usage is higher than GPU that may not necessarily be a good thing.
