Windows 10: Games lagging when the audio drivers updated...

So I was dealing with an issue that my dumb audio drivers where doing nothing and the whole sound in my windows 11 was gone. I updated the driver through the device manager.I searched for updated drivers but none was there. And I checked the drivers which were already in my pc. It showed me 2 of the drivers. I chose the recommended realtek audio drivers and hit update. After the restart I started playing cities skylines. It felt a lil bit laggy I mean lag spikes. After that my bro complained that the assassins creed was also laggy. Mine is an hp laptop. There is an update for windows 10 audio
