Windows 10: Gaming PC is unresponsive and stuttering? during my games? How to fix?

For background information, I do not have many applications open at once, my game is not too hard to render, it is League of Legends. It is also not my PC specs, they are not bad at all. I also have lots of empty space so I don't think it comes from having too many files. I always update my Nvidia drivers. My games are on my m.2 and my PC is from the summer of 2020. I also have a good connection to wifi and I never had this issue until a while after.I have a Nvidia 1650 gtx, Ryzen 5 2600, 16 gb ram.After playing a bit of league, anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours, my game will begin to freeze

2) The Display driver is so important that merely updating it might not be enough. Try everything here to make sure: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...-6d7c-4a04-9e13-6b2ddf26f17b?tm=1671166281376



3) Go over Windows using this checklist to make sure the install is set up correctly, optimized for best performance, and any needed repairs get done: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...ntegrity/75529fd4-fac7-4653-893a-dd8cd4b4db00

Start with Step 4 to turn off Startup freeloaders which can conflict and cause issues, then Step 7 to check for infection the most thorough way, then step 10 to check for damaged System Files, and also Step 16 to test a new Local Admin account. Then continue with the other steps to go over your install most thoroughly.

4) If nothing else works then do a Repair Install, by installing Media Creation Tool, open tool and choose to Upgrade Now. This reinstalls Windows while keeping files, programs and most settings in place, is the most stable method to advance to the latest version, and solves most problems.

5) Test the hardware using these best tools and methods: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...sts-2023/121921ee-59d9-43af-b7af-6b0fd92567a3

6) But remember that in Windows 10 everything depends upon the quality of the install, and Factory or Upgrade installs are inferior installs which most enthusiasts won't even run because they'd expect endless issues. Consider now or later doing the Clean Install in this link which compiles the best possible install that will stay that way as long as you stick with the tools and methods given: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...tory-oem/1c426bdf-79b1-4d42-be93-17378d93e587

The reason I suggest this is that no one who has adopted the install in the above link has ever come back to report further problems I've seen, including another version failure. This is because everything in Windows 10 is dependent upon the quality of the install, especially Version Updates which will choke on lesser quality installs, and there is no possibility of problems if you stick ONLY with the steps, tools and methods in that tutorial.

It is also one of life's great learning experiences that will permanently make you the master of your PC because you will learn everything that works best and how to keep it that way.
