3060 Ti + i5 10400f build, Performance problems.
**Status:** Unresolved

**Computer Type:** Custom Build Pc

**GPU:** Galax Nvidia 3060 ti (1 Click OC)

**CPU:** Intel i5 10400f

**Motherboard:** Asus h510m-k

**RAM:** 2x8 Crucial 3200mhz Capped to 2666mhz because cpu doesn't support 3200mhz [16 gb in total]

**PSU:** Gigabyte P650B 650W

**Main drive [OS Drive]** 250 Gb lexar SSD

**Secondary [Games drive]** 500 Gb WD HDD

**Operating System & Version:** Windows 10 Pro Version 23H2

**GPU Drivers:** GRD 551

**Description of Problems**

Low fps in Almost All Games! Stutters making games unplayable, extreme fps drops, computer is laggy even when opening files, sometimes crashing (explorer.exe has stopped responding) being slow in literally everything, gpu usage drops lower than cpu while in games causing low fps.

Games that have problems are: Doom eternal, Resident evil 4 Remastered, Fortnite, Elden Ring.

No clear reason, temps are fine (no 80 degrees and higher) no clear mining running, haven't run anything sketchy

There are other minor problems:
I noticed that when moving the mouse the pc makes coil whining sounds [ONLY WHEN MOVING THE MOUSE], tried lowering mouse reporting hz, didn't help, also gpu clock speeds and usage vary when in use, gpu usage drops lower than cpu causing massive stutters and clock speeds are flunctioating under load.

Also speakers, headphones make electrical noises, weird high pitch noise whenever it's plugged in, even when browsing [unrelated probably, ground loop?]

Tried : Ddu to clean install drives, reverting nvidia drivers to version 537.58 (as recommended by others), resetting nvidia control pannel settings, turning off game mode, hardware acceleration, gpu scheduling, xbox game bar, moving games to ssd, none worked

Haven't tried : clean install of windows, don't have any spare parts to try incase a part is broken.

Note that i ran stable diffusion [ai art] on the pc, Although i did with keeping temps low and with power limits, could it have killed the gpu or any part?

What you likely need to do is replace the entire SSD your OS is on because there's issues with Windows and not just games

I will try to get an ssd and then come back with the results, thanks for the help

ram speed is going to hurt performance but not cause massive stuttering and low fps like he reports. i have used many am2-4 setups with ram running at 2100mhz and up to 2900mhz. you see difference in performance but not coilwhine or stuttering
this sounds to me like your psu is faulty. have you tried different psu? good psu are cheap and oyur hardware doesnt need more than 300w to 350w with everything running max. 700w psu should be great. look psu cultist list in google and choose a good model

its weird because its first time i hear someone complain about coilwhile while moving mouse in desktop

There's other random stupid things it could be like GPU drivers (someone had the same issue and noticed their GPU voltage would run to 1.1V whenever the mouse moved) and running DDU to wipe the drivers and then installing a different driver fixed it, and on the ASUS forms a moderator suggested that maybe there could be too many things running off of the same surge protector

Just some things to consider
