PLEASE READ: I have reinstalled windows completely, tried drivers from two months ago, made a registry edit (tdrDelay or something like that), changed nvidia power settings, tried an older gpu, tried a whole different motherboard, 3 different kits of ram at different speeds, reinstalled drivers using DDU, removed gpu overclocks, disabled fullscreen optimization for games, ran windows memory test changed cpu priority of games...I'm definitely missing some things I tried, I just can't remember them all. Overheating is not an issue for both the cpu and gpu , both stay below 70 c. SPECS; Ryzen 7 2700x stock w/xfr, EVGA GTX 1080 FTW, Corsair AX 760, G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) (PC4 25600) F4-3200C16D-16GTZR, Asus ROG X470 Gaming F, a kingston 240gb ssd, 1tb hdd and 4 tb hdd. A few weeks ago I decide to upgrade my old 3rd gen i7 pc to a Ryzen 7 system. After booting up and installing drivers, everything seemed fine. I noticed when playing pubg and fortnite the games run very fast, yet it constantly hitches and stutters. If the stutter is strong enough, it seems the nvidia driver hangs and the game crashes. In fortnite, the game log will say something along the lines of "waiting for gpu to catch up (0.5 seconds). It will print the line over and over until I kill the game in task manager. PUBG does the same, but both games will only do this when I am actually in a match. The gpu will still run at the same boost clock in the lobby as it does in game (since it's on prefer high performance) yet being in a match is what will cause it to hang. In the windows event manager the event's catergory is "display" and will read "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered". What's odd about this is Rainbow Six siege exhibits absolutely NONE of these issues and hasn't crashed on me at all since the hardware upgrade. The stutter isn't present whatsoever when I am in windows, it also persists when I dissconnect the PC from the internet and play offline games. Help is appreciated, I am at an absolutely loss regrading this one.
EDIT: Another game that doesn't exhibit stutter and freezing is Doom 2016, I noticed whenever I change the graphics API (in the in game menu's) from Vulkan to OpenGL the game starts stuttering and running poorly. When I change it back to Vulkan the issues completely disappear.
