Can anyone offer advice or solutions to help alleviate stuttering issues during gaming sessions caused by computer problems?

My computer has been causing me a lot of problems, especially with stuttering during gaming sessions.

What games?

What do you have running in the background?

List your full specs in the post.(I know you put them as tags)

List your temps and usage in game.

Try running ThrottleStop 9.6

https://www.techpowerup.com/download/techpowerup-throttlestop/

 

Post screenshots of the main screen, the FIVR and TPL windows.

 

Check the Log File box on the main screen and then go play a game for about 15 minutes. When you are done testing, exit the game and then exit ThrottleStop so it can finalize your log file. This file will be in your ThrottleStop / Logs folder. Attach a log and some screenshots to your next post. It will help show any reasons for throttling. 

 

An 11900K on a B560 board might be causing the voltage regulators to overheat. A log file will help show what is going on. 

 

Did you try completely uninstalling the Nvidia GPU driver? Did you try installing an older driver version?

 

Is core isolation memory integrity disabled?

I've been playing games like Fortnite, AC Valhalla, and Control and the stuttering happens a lot.

Do you have Windows core isolation memory integrity enabled? Did you read the link I posted above?

 

How about one of the Windows 11 features that require virtualization to be enabled? Post a screenshot of the Windows Features window. Things like Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Sandbox, Hyper-V, Windows Hypervisor Platform, Windows Subsystem for Linux should all be disabled if smooth gaming is important to you. 

 

After you get all of the above disabled, reboot, delete the ThrottleStop.INI configuration file, run ThrottleStop and post an updated screenshot of the FIVR window. 

 

I would recommend using the Windows High Performance power plan when gaming. What antivirus program are you using?

 

In the BIOS I would increase the PL1 turbo power limit from 125W to at least 150W or 175W or even 200W. You have excellent CPU cooling so increasing this power limit will help prevent any power limit throttling. 

 

Once you get everything adjusted, open the ThrottleStop Options window and check the Nvidia GPU box so this information is included in the log file. Your CPU is not running too bad. If how you have Windows setup is not the problem then it could be a GPU throttling problem. Post some new ThrottleStop information after updating the above settings.
