CPU randomly spiking to 100%

Banks08

When playing different games I am experiencing freezing where I am under to do anything on the pc. The I/o cooler lcd freezes, audio is static and then everything come back. When it comes back it’s like buffering where you can see what should have happened when it was frozen. Normally run discord then have YouTube on my second monitor and then running a game on the main monitor when this is happening. Originally thought it was cpu and just changed it out from 7950x to 7950x3d. However this didn’t fix my problem. Also tried changing out my ddr5 from gskill trident neo to Corsair dominator and no difference. When watching the msi monitor it shows random spikes of 100% cpu usage then goes back to 30-40

Specs

CPU- 7095x3d

I would start looking in Software problems before swapping all the hardware and noticing no change at all.

Steps to do:
Update BIOS => Check for CPU spikes
Update AMD Chipset drivers => Check for CPU spikes

Uninstall Corsair software => Check for CPU spikes
Reinstall Windows => Check for CPU spikes
