So after doing a clean windows install on my pc and installing the newest drivers, I noticed that I'm getting a lot of strange Clock and Memory spikes, also voltage spikes. I tried reinstalling drivers and removing overclocks, but nothing works. It looks very abnormal to me. Temperatures are fine and in game, it seems to go away as my clocks max out. However, I am getting some weird micro shudders in Apex Legends. Does anyone know what is causing this? How can I find out what is causing this? In the picture I only have 2 programs open, steam, origin, and EVGA PX.

Specs:

Processor: Ryzen 5 2600 6-Core 3.4Ghz + Wraith Stealth CPU Cooler

Motherboard: MSI Gaming Plus 450M

GPU Zotac GTX 1660 super

PSU: EVGA 500w

Ram: Team T-Force Delta RGB 16GB

SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB

My graphs in EVGA Precision

Afterburner... use the info tool button to see what offending apps are triggering 3d acceleration and use rtss to disable said offenders.

I downloaded both those programs and I don't see any options to do that, can you elaborate a bit?

Scroll down to rtss... Also, the instructions are for the older skin. If you have trouble finding the "i" button switch to the old skin under settings/user interface.
