I just built my first gaming PC and I'm really excited! Most games are running smoothly with impressive FPS. However, I've noticed some stutters while playing games like Rust and Fortnite. The stutters happen every 3 seconds and coincide with spikes in both CPU and GPU usage. It's strange because I can still get over 400 FPS in Fortnite. I'm also hearing a buzzing noise from my PSU that stops every time the stutters occur. Can anyone help me figure out what's causing this?

Honestly, it can be a bit frustrating to deal with stuttering on a $2000 PC. Have you made sure all your drivers are updated? Sometimes out-of-date software can lead to these kinds of performance problems.
Running a stress test on your PC can be useful to identify any performance issues that might be causing those stutters.
First off, what are the specs of your PC? Knowing your hardware can help figure out what’s going wrong.
It’s odd that you’re experiencing stutters since everything else runs smoothly. Maybe check for any background processes that could be hogging resources. Budget PCs can sometimes run into issues with high-demand games even if the average FPS looks good.
