Hey there! I'm having some really strange issues while playing graphically intense games like Resident Evil 9 and Silent Hill 2 Remake. My frame rates are generally stable around 60-70 FPS, but then suddenly, they drop to around 20-25 FPS at times, and sometimes even lower. I noticed that while my GPU usage maxes out at 100%, the temperatures actually drop from 70-80°C down to 60-65°C. Meanwhile, my VRAM usage is sticking at 7.6GB, and I have an 8GB graphics card. My RAM usage sits between 16-23GB. I'm wondering if this is a problem related to insufficient VRAM or if it could be something else entirely. Here are my specs: Ryzen 5600x, RTX3070TI 8GB, and 32GB DDR4. Any insights would be appreciated!

It sounds like you're hitting VRAM saturation. Consider lowering your texture settings or enabling DLSS/FSR to ease the VRAM burden. Might help stabilize your FPS!

I'm currently on medium settings with DLSS set to Quality at 3440x1440. Do you think that's too demanding for my GPU?
