hey so i believe i get the lag spikes when im only on 5g network. the speed on it is incredible, but ill only use it when im downloading large files( video games) to speed up the time. when i get on regular wifi its fine while playing games.

 

so yeah my fix for my issue was switching from 5g to 4g, i would get no issues, shudders, or lag spikes while on 4g. thanks for the help guys.
