Check your temps? If you have two monitors open task manager and go to resources and watch temps while gaming. If only one monitor keep it up in background and then when you freeze go look at the temp trend. If it's hitting 85c you're throttling

I'd use hwinfo and run the sensor only mode.

sounds like ya need more ram
if you search on windows "msinfo32" and go into there, do you see this anywhere? im assuming its probably 8gb and you'll need to upgrade to 16 to fix this

im guessing if your computer has 8gb of ram it probably needs a full system upgrade tbh but you can post your specs here and i can give you more guidance
on hwinfo if you run it normally can you post a pic of the details on the page?

Your pc hates your excessive use of emojis and wants to kill itself.
