Why are my games freezing on a powerful PC?
Asked by

I'm experiencing freezing issues when playing games like PUBG, CS2, and GTA 5 on my new PC setup, which includes an RTX 5070, Intel i5-13600KF, and 32 GB of Kingston Fury RAM. The performance drops significantly, around 40-50% for short periods, but it's not a complete freeze. This problem also occurred with my previous PC, so I'm not sure if it's related to my monitor, which is the same one I used before, or something else. I've attempted to troubleshoot on other forums without success, so I'm reaching out here for help. If you need me to run any diagnostic tools, I'm open to suggestions!

First, double-check that all your drivers are up to date, particularly the NVIDIA graphics drivers and your motherboard's chipset drivers. After that, it might be helpful to run the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool to check for any RAM issues.

I'm curious about your previous setup. What was your old PC like? Did you perform a clean Windows installation when you upgraded to your new system?
