i7-13700kf stuttering in games

[Manuben]

Hi, I have a stuttering problem with my i7-13700kf.

When I play games my games run smooth but randomly the start to lag a lot. CPU usage drops from 50% to 10%. 

My motherboard is ASUS PRIME Z790-P D4 and I have 4 sticks on DDR4 3200Mhz ram

Update your bios, and make sure you correctly installed your cooling solution.

Thanks for your reply.

I already tried updating bios (0602) but not addressed the problem. Also updated GPU drivers to latest.

My cooling solution, it's a NZXT Kraken 360 mm AIO.

As I said, make sure your cooler (and thermal paste) are correctly installed.

I dont know what fixed it but changed ram xmp to manual with same values, reinstalled graphics drivers using DDU
