Computer will stutter and almost not load when playing games - recently new build.

Computer Specs:

Mobo: ASUS ROG Strix Z890-H Gaming WiFi Z890 LGA 1851 ATX Motherboard, Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 2 Ready, Advanced AI PC-Ready, 16+2+1+2 Stages, DDR5, 5Gb LAN, WiFi 7, 4X M.2, PCIe 5.0, USB Type-C®, AI OC

CPU: Intel Ultra 7 265K

RAM: 64 GB G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 Series DDR5 RAM (Intel XMP 3.0) 64GB (2x32GB) 6400MT/s CL32-39-39-102 1.40V Desktop Computer Memory U-DIMM - Matte Black (F5-6400J3239G32GX2-RS5K)

GFX Card: Geforce RTX 5080

M2 drives for storage

I can replicate the issue pretty frequently. All I need to do is login to old school runescape or D2:R and it will just completely make my computer render useless, I go from max frames to like 12 FPS in OSRS and can't even play the game (These games are never an issue regularly.) I thought I was getting messed with because every time I went to a boss, it would start and I would have to log out. Now, it also affects windows as well, Task manager takes forever to load (nothing is at 100% in fact everything is very low usage), explorer takes forever to load, (I have task bar set to hidden and when I hover my mouse at the bottom it will take a bit to appear.)

I have checked my temps, all is really good. As mention before, usage is like nothing for CPU/GPU in task manager. I did virus scans, nothing all clear. This randomly started happening a few days ago and I am not really sure what to resort to next as potential solution. What could be other avenues to look?

Did you build it yourself?
If so, did you correctly install all of the needed updates and drivers?

This sounds more like a drivers problem and your system is stalling.

Have you tried disabling xmp? What ram speed are you running at?
Could be issues with ram stability on that platform both ddr5 and intel chips are kind of unstable.

Funny enough I rolled back my drivers on my GFX card yesterday and it worked fine. I think the new drivers they pushed out were faulty or something. IT was the only thing i changed recently i remembered and now it works again
