You've noted the symptoms, now up to the cause. You have to find out where the bottleneck is.

A useful rule of thumb is to lower the resolution. If that doesn't affect the problem (which it likely won't, but better know for sure), thebottleneck isn't the GPU.

ive got a i5-11400 paired with a 1650, and lowering the resulution wont help since the gpu and cpu should work perfect at 1080p

That's a convoluted way to say "I don't wanna any troubleshooting, I've already made up my mind on what it must be & there's no convincing me otherwise", but here you go...
Anyway ay, so it. Do the troubleshoiting please.

i got worse fps when i tried lowering the resulution

The performace is different every day in every game

OK, so the GPU ain't the bottleneck. What's yer CPU load doing?

The usage is at 20%

Yes, your CPU usage. Including a graph of usually vs. when it stutters.

The usage is usally 20-30% but when its gpu dropping its around the same

So the bottleneck ain't the CPU either.
Have you checked if other players of the game experience the same?

No no one else

How about you check Brand product page for Bios to chipset to GPU driver first.

if you have full disk or other wrong build tech or dont even have 16gb ram and all kind of cheapmans build setup thats your problem, most will not ask then you have 10000+ board thats seen as should be good enough, but you forget who you talk to here any helper dont give 2 cent for for pc tech if Drivers aient update. and that mean Microsoft update dont even count as a update system , that Brand board or Brand name pc that deal with that.

Microsoft dont know jack and crap here, they got Driver From Brand support if they even work at all. ( point is MS dont make other Brands Driver )

keep in mind here we have no clue how much tech skill you have here. and know how things work, and yet you can have done all this and still have a gpu issue with a game

see fallout4 so many have debris option on next gen GPU to that game, and who said you cant have same issue on other games.

ps.

and i doubt many even know what game devs is doing and steam lack of it what game need.
VC+++ from MS has been update, that know as Runtime librarys.
and MS did not fix past update and fixes, to even suggest it could be that
i can tell you dont have multi entrys update with it and i had to find a newer VC+++ then MS support page , also signed by MS, that fix alot of game issue for me this is specific 2015 to 2022

last time i check
steam common resdistributable files ( VC+++ ( MS visual studio ))
14.28.29334.0 ( can change then steam update it )

MS own support page
14.30.30708.0 ( from MS own page )

14.30.30818.0 ( from thirdpart site , also signed by MS )
And that fix alot of game issue i had
do note that was from GTA5 to Fallout4 ) and i see them games as old and well tested.
and yet i did not have issue with them in the past, but somehow got them later over the years and never could actual pinpoint with what the heck is going on. untill i notice steam kept install and overwrite MS own version, 14.30.30818.0 seem to lock and kick outdate steam version and MS own support with newer version installed and they cant overwrite it.

in other words its your problem to update your system files, what the hack do game deves even know with other games and they narrow tunnel vision they have on own product and steam in top of this that only focus on what game devs is using to ech game.
so yeah this could be STEAM to GAME DEVS problem and they are clueless,
dont think i get credit here for tell you, itsyour job to know better then them.

This is even MS fault what happend to fix all old versions and make a fresh install, but they dont want a issu this is your problem, MS dont are what game DEVS do and Steam in this case or own OS. gl to graps this brain fart as we say today.

i cant say you have performance issue with them, i did even video player frozen. not even a game,

gl with your update, dont expect other helper here see my point or even a steam support, they are clueless in what VC+++ actual is and how it can effect games and performance.

Is it one that f the weird Unreal-engine-games which hang visually when there's a network hiccup?
