spent like 1400 on this thing, having problems

Did you try unplugging it and plugging it back in?

no listed problems so i guess its fixed

What kind of problems?

im skipping frames or losing frames here and there on league, i notice my mouse move like an inch and my screen isnt in the same spot
ive replaced everything but power/cpu/mb/gfx
i reformatted a couple times and ive ran stress tests on cpu / gfx + together
temps all stable

could pay u some fgs if u think u could help me

I'll help for free if you send more details. What specs are your PC?

A $1400 PC should have zero issues with League. Could be background software and low RAM? Could be a GPU driver issue (what graphics card do you have? Do you know if your drivers are up to date?)

when i hooked this thing up about 3 yrs ago i didnt hook it up right
i had aio water cool system for the cpu and to get the pc to turn on i had the fans plugged to the pump and the pump plugged into the fan part of the mb (now that i know more, maybe i was bypassing the auto shutdown if the cpu gets too hot)
the fans never turned on but the liquid was always flowing, i replaced the cooler with a fan cooler and my temps are all stable
maybe the sodder around my cpu melted and i need a new mb? that is my guess based on the stress tests and parts ive replaced.
i have a
geforce rtx 2070
*i used to play league fine without a gfx card
asrockz390 pro4 mb
i5-9600k cpu @ 3.7 ghz
2 sticks of ram separated like they are supposed to be ( guy helped me set all that in my bios)
i have updated drivers
i have updated bios

i replaced all my peripherials mouse/keyboard/headset
i put a new ssd and a new windows on it when i put it in, the old one was not recieving enough power (maybe the cord was faulty)
replaced the cords for that and removed the old ssd
i have a 1tb ssd and a 2tb hdd i just store stuff on

monitors 1 144hz monitor that i try to run at 120fps and a shitty side monitor.

I don't think cooling is the problem. Melting your CPU would be a bigger problem then framerate. Could be anti-aliasing, try on and off. I believe it's called G-sync for Nvidia cards and would only work properly if your monitor is compatible. Anti-aliasing would be both a monitor setting and an in game setting.

Your hardware seems fine, I'd look at software. You didn't mention how much Ram you're running only that it's dual-stick and slotted correctly. Keeping in mind that League shouldn't bleed Ram even if you don't have much but lots of other software can.

I'm also curious why you aim for 120fps if you have a 144hz monitor. Generally if you have the hardware to do it it's best to match refresh rate and FPS. I doubt this is the problem but it's worth trying. Your hardware should easily hit 144fps on league

Side note: if you connect AIO fans to a random fan header it can still function fine if you edit your fan curves in BIOS. Seems like you've moved on but might be relevant for future builds

cooling is fine but the aio was jerry rigged before. new fan cooler put on cpu with new paste. anti aliasing doesnt change anything, ive tried both on and off on everything i play. the G-sync ive never really played with g sync but a couple buddies walked me thru shit to do as soon as i reformatted the second time and i think i turned that off in the nvidea control panel.
software could be issue but i reformatted twice, once b4 new ssd and once after
i believe this monitor will only display 120fps but claims to be 144hz (dont know much about this so i just cap it at 120 when possible)
ah neat i still have that aio cooler in a box.. the old aio was jerry rigged one blank female end and one blank male end on the 2 cords to the motherboard (pump/fans)

Theoretically 144hz refresh rate of the monitor (monitor refreshes the screen 144 times per second) should perfectly match 144 fps output from the GPU. The reality is much different if say the GPU puts out more frames earlier in that second you can end up with discrepancy.

Honestly I'm stumped, I think this is above my pay grade. I'll tag a few people who might be more helpful if I get a chance
