3080 RTX Usage up to 90% makes game freeze

[Declan_Porter]

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor 3.70 GHz
16.0 GB
GeForce RTX 3080
I play a variety of games, some with normally less intensive GPU usage, and some high rez games. I can play some COD Games without issue, but struggle on games like Overwatch 2. I have been trying to play the game Have a Nice Death from Gearbox Studios. I started noticing more and more how my computer freezes, and causes my games to have audio repeat like a broken record. It gets to the point where i get disconnected from online games for timing out.
Anyone have an idea or reason why this would happen?

Hello

Yes the HDD is my main HDD but the 16 GB was my RAM, i have a 1 TB HDD and a 1 TB M.2 SSD, i save most of my games on my SSD

You bringing up the HDD made me think to defragment it, windows should do it automatically, but im doing it now just to be safe

There is no PSU data, in most cases the GPU have no power to work properly if you have poor Power Supply

I’d start here:
Disk Letter:
C:

[COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Free Space:
65 GB (7%)

Try clearing up some space (deleting old files or moving them to another drive) and then running the following programs. Try to keep at least 20-25% of your disks as free space for Windows to utilize as needed.

Run Disk Cleanup (check all the boxes) this will delete things such as your recycling bin, so make sure you don’t have any files you want to keep.

Run Defragment and Optimize Drives, run this on your drives.[/COLOR]

i did defrag it and did the disk cleanup beforehand, and i removed some files. i now have over 100GB available. it is still freezing and making audio looping sounds. it also times me out from online games still.

[Declan_Porter]

I swapped my RAM with another good pair, it still had the same issues. I even ran the windows memory tester. Nothing changed

You’re going to want 200GB or more free.
