So i switched from a r5 5600x & 1660ti with 32 gb ram (4x8) to a r5 5600x & 4080 with same ram a while ago (late 2022-early 2023), and now just a month ago i switch my cpu to a r7 5800x3d and my ram to 32 gb ram (2x16) since my friend told me amd cpu's doesn't like 4 sticks and rather have 2 sticks of ram. It runs really good on every game. Except fortnite.

 

I've recently come back to playing fortnite and i cap my fps with my 240hz 2k monitor but when i play in game on performance mode i get 240fps highs but i constantly get stutters and fps drops down to 20 in game. Settings in performance mode doesn't seem to do anything and when i switch to dx12 i get TONS of stuttering, i'm talking 3x as much and on dx11 i get much stuttering aswell. Does anyone have any tips on what it can be? I'm tired of it stuttering and limiting my in-game performance but i can't find a solution on my own. I did a remove and install on the nvidia drivers when i got it. I did not reset windows but it feels like a reach no? 

 

Specs:

4080 zotac

r7 5800x3d

32 gb ram (2x16 @ 3600mhz), old ram was 32 gb (4x8 @ 3200mhz)

samsung evo 980 ssd
 

corsair 850 watt psu

 

Would appreciate any kind of information that could solve my problem. I'm not really good with bios and that kind of stuff so i'd rather stay away from that myself but if i have to do anything please give me a step-by-step guide since i don't want to send it away and wait so long for it to potentionally not get fixed and just waste time.
