Massive sitemwide stutter and frame drops
Hi everyone. for the past 6 month since i build the system i have been experiencing issues with it, like VGA debug showing every few boots or kernel power 41 error, however the most recent one being FPS drops and system stutter even while idle out of nowhere witch have always been there but worsened with the latest 5070 drivers, that's why i downloaded latencymon. Unfortunately i have no idea how to make sense out of the summary it gave me so I'm posting it here. if anyone is willing to help out I'm be very happy! I have gone trough numerous troubleshooting steps including full windows reinstall and installing only the latest drivers for everything, i have also tryed replacing the psu with a 1000W one but the issue remains.
Here are the results and my pc specs:
GPU-MSI SHADOW 2x RTX 5070
CPU-I7 14700k
RAM-Corsair vengeance 32gb ddr5
MOBO: Asus TUF z790 BTF WiFi 7
SSD-P310 1tb
PSU-MSI MAG 850w
CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:16:21 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.
Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 3702.0
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 12.211401
Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 328.50
Average measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 4.000333

REPORTED DPCs
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
DPC routines are part of the interrupt servicing dispatch mechanism and disable the possibility for a process to utilize the CPU while it is interrupted until the DPC has finished execution.

REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.
NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.
Process with highest pagefault count: eldenring.exe
Total number of hard pagefaults 34765
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 14809
Number of processes hit: 65
