I'm having a tough time with my gaming PC. After building it, I've noticed that my GPU starts to stutter consistently after about 30 seconds of gameplay in titles like Valorant. At first, everything runs smoothly, but then I get a stutter every couple of seconds. I've already tried several troubleshooting steps: updating the BIOS, installing new drivers, checking the RAM, and going through all the settings in Adrenalin edition as well as the display and in-game settings. I've even uninstalled RGB hub drivers, but nothing seems to fix the issue. I'm at my wit's end—should I consider reinstalling Windows? What do you recommend? Just feeling really frustrated! For context, I'm using a 9070 XT and a 7800X3D.

Your power supply should be good enough with a 1000W unit. Just double-check those cables and connections. Sometimes it’s the little things that cause big headaches!
When you mentioned you got a used GPU, how much did you pay for it? Sometimes even good deals can lead to issues if the previous owner had problems.
It's strange that a new GPU would cause these problems. Did you buy it used? If yes, maybe it’s worth testing on another system to see if the issue persists before deciding what to do next.
Have you tried unplugging the GPU and plugging it back in? Also, make sure your PSU is connected properly. What PSU are you using? If it's not providing enough power, that could be throttling your GPU performance.
