my pc started lagging out of nowhere, last night i was playing some games and i was having stable fps without drops, next day my pc started to feel slower than usual so i tried some games and i had huge fps spikes from 140 to 20-10 every second, i instaled new gpu drivers and its still lagging, no overheating or malwares

my specs:

motherboard ASUS ROG Strix B550-I GAMING

RTX3070Ti asus tuf

RYZEN 9 5900x

2x 1TB 980 samsung ssd

Ok thanks , So you know some of these sites at peak moments. have issues with there servers at peak times. Does this happen at non peak times?
 
I noticed that your post has only 2 peripherals plugged in . Is this the case when playing games?
 
Rustys is right, an underpowered PSU could definitely be your issue.

Even if it's not, having a good PSU with the proper power rating is never a bad thing - one of the places that going overboard is okay.


Let's get some more information:

Download and run the free version of speccy.

Once you have ran speccy, follow the instructions to upload a snapshot found here.


To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:
  1. In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.
  2. In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.
  3. Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.
