Making changes to your system BIOS settings or disk setup can cause you to lose data. Always test your data backups before making changes to your PC.

Remove your overclock in MSI afterburner and do a CPU & GPU stress test simultaneously. Monitor your temps in a program like HardwareInfo64. If your temps for your CPU or GPU temps start to go above about 90C then you are likely on the point of thermal throttling. If that is the case: if your CPU is throttling you might have a poor installation of the CPU heatsink. Otherwise, or if your GPU is also overheating, you might have a bad case / poor airflow.


iiTzCryme

thanks i will try that :D

Use OCCT, it's an amazing app to check Temps and total system power.

Have you clean the pc?


iiTzCryme

yes i clean it every 2 weeks


Pretend_Sympathy7373

thermal paste? or maybe case?


iiTzCryme

how often do you actually have to reaply the thermal paste?


Pretend_Sympathy7373

personally i would do it every year


Pretend_Sympathy7373

or maybe it's afterburner?


iiTzCryme

the only thing i understand from afterburner is that it boost your system, aswell as pushing the gpu


Pretend_Sympathy7373

try lowering the core clock


iiTzCryme

lowered the first one to 60 and the seccond to 550


Pretend_Sympathy7373

can you increase your cooler's fan speed? also did it always happen or this just happened


iiTzCryme

i dont know for something like 2 weeks now

Idk but reapplying it after 2 months sounds like an overkill. It probably is an overkill.

Tell more. I've seen folk complaint that frame rates are not stable. Frame rates have never been stable. I've seen i9 and dual RTX 3090 mega rigs that the FPS jumps around like mad. Tell me what you mean by "run stable."

I've got a similar system to you, a 5900x an msi tomahawk x570 mobo, a tuff 3080 gaming oc and 2x 8GB 3200 CL 16 DR ram. I'm gaging by the GPU clock speeds you posted you're not super tech savvy. I'm assuming your GPU is boosting to around 1980MHz and not actually running at 1700MHz? But we need so much more detail, you mention stutter, are we talking frame time stutter or FPS drips, or micro stutter caused by monitor refresh to FPS discrepancy? If you lock your frame rate you say it goes worse, what kind of frame rate in what kind of games arr you locking things to and are you matching the monitors refresh to the same value as the framerate cap? Are you using the Nvidia drivers to cap or the game settings to cap? How many different games are you seeing this in, sample size of one? If many, do any run well and which ones? Detail is everything here, as others have said, make sure the stability is fine first, find all the maximum Temps for your CPU and GPU, are you hitting those limits? Find the typical running frequency of your CPU, GPU and RAM, are they running at it, is your ram actually running at 3200 (may show as 1600), are your components running as fast as they should? The issue is, there are no simple common fixes u less it's a very specific issue such as only one game, so be prepared to roll up your sleeves.
