High end build, stuttering in every game

Hello, this is my build:

• i5-6600k
• ASUS MAXIMUS RANGER VIII
• MSI GTX 1060 6G
• Samsung SSD 850 evo 250gb
• WD Caviar Blue 1TB
• G.Skill Ripjaws V 3200 DDR4 (XMP profile)
• Dual monitor: Zowie XL2411 144hz + BenQ GW2260 60Hz

I get stuttering in the following titles:

• Rocket League: every time a new player join a match the game freeze, also when V-Sync is on I get random lag from 144 to 130 and then the game continue to run smoothly.
• GTA V: random stuttering Online and fps drops, V-Sync on.
• PUBG: random stuttering, V-Sync off.
• Rust: stuttering when loading chunks with fps drops.
• Ark: as Rust.
• Total War Warhammer: random stuttering in the strategic map, V-Sync on.

What I've done till now:

• Tried every graphic settings.
• All kind of Windows 10 optimizations like Performance mode, Xbox game mode off, disabled unnecessary services and tasks, no antivirus (Windows Defender on only).
• Hard drive defragmentation.
• Nvidia control panel optimizations for every game like Thread optimization, tried several v-sync modes, etc.
• All drivers are updated.
• No pending Windows updates.
• Temps are fine, GPU and CPU never go above 65C.
• Shadowplay overlay off.
• Playing with one monitor at once.
• Moved games from HDD to SSD.
• Tried different version of GPU drivers.
• Disabled the page on the HDD and fixed its size on the SSD with the reccommended value.
• Memtest for both RAM stick at once (8 pass each no errors).

What I've not tried yet is to reinstall the OS... benchmarks and performance in game are ok and in line with every other user... do you have any suggestions? Could it be network related? How can I analyze the stuttering?

PS: I'm testing with Latencymon and doing some screenshot of gpu and cpu usage

Games stuttering after upgrading to Windows 11

I have since I have upgraded to windows 11 I have been seeing stutters in my games and large FPS drops. Games run fine for first few minutes and start stuttering only to get normal again for a some time. I know the issue is not in the graphics settings or hardware as everything was running smooth in Windows 10. Even GTA IV has started to stutter. Here's what I have tried:

• Looking at task manager while gaming to see if any of my GPU/CPU/RAM are reaching their max when stuttering starts in Red Dead Online. Found no behaviour out of the ordinary, RAM was always at 80% capacity with discord and the game open. I don't know if that's the issue.
  
• Turning off GameDVR settings from System Registry.
  
• Uninstalling drivers and reinstalling newer ones from the custom installation option in Nvidia GeForce Experience.
  
• Turning off Memory Integrity.
  
• Toning down in game video settings.
  
• Installing vulkan renderer for GTA IV.
  
• Turning off Real Time security.
  
• Turning off Game mode.
  
• Turning on high performance mode in control panel and from the manual keys in my Lenovo Legion Laptop.
  
• Cleaning the air vents and putting it on an elevation supported by a few poker chips on each corner for better airflow.
  
• Turning off every third party process from Task Manager that I could before playing games.
  
• Updating Windows 11, eventually updating to 23H2 but the problem still persists.
  

My PC specs (Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming Laptop):

• 16 Gb RAM
  
• 4 Gb Nvidia GTX 1650 Ti Graphics card
  
• 4 core Intel i5 processor ( I don't know what gen)
  

There was no performance issues in my games in Windows 10. I have missed the 10 day mark of reverting back to Windows 10, I don't want the hassle of reinstalling it. I have seen others on Windows 11 having good gaming performance so I think Windows 11 could still be fixable for me. Thank you for reading and attention any reply and suggestion would be appreciated.
