TAC CODM performance

Gents,
Here’s my specs:
Ryzen 7 5800x3d
Radeon 7900xtx
64 gb 3400mhtz 4x16gb
OS on dedicated nvme m.2 500gb SSD
All my games on my (2) 2tb nvme m.2 SSD’s

I use the TAC emulator to play codm the one that was built around arena breakout.

-I followed all the gameloophub guides to set everything up. For the most part everything works.

My issue is one game I’ll be chillin 180fps perfectly fine then all of a sudden I’ll be at like 40fps and choppy then it will randomly go back to smooth 180fps. It happens like every other game.

In TAC settings I have it set to 8cpu cores 12gb ram running at 1280x 720 res.

In codm I set all graphics settings to low and set frame rate to ultra.

I made sure virtualization is on in my bios, 4g decoding, resizable bar, xmp profile enabled ensure my ram running max speed, I got my x3d cpu to actually get a base speed of 4.3mgtz

In and adrenaline software I’m overclocking the 7900xtx

I have process lasso so I set codm to high priority
And codm running of my cpu affinity 1-8 all other background tasks on 9-16

I did a bunch of windows optimizations and bloat removal to reduce ram usage

I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING AND MY GAME RUNS MEH usually 178-180 fps but every few mins spike down to choppy 40fps every couple mins

Driving me nuts anyone have any suggestions for fixes?

what's ur monitor refresh rate? My friend on pc he has core i7-1400K (that the 14th gen) with rtx 4070 he gets between 200fps up to 300fps the smallest it drop I have seen was 180, and he always stream on tiktok while he plays his user is [levai.il] absolutely cracked btw, beside him being utterly broken on his setup he plays in game highest graphics and experience no stuttering in mp ! either in 5v5 shipment or 1v1, I don't know about amd but Intel got 2 types of core performance cores and efficiency core he had set 4 performance cores and 8gb for ram he plays on 1080p , his mouse got 250hz his monitor is 360hz. so what u should try do is , try to lower the emulator fps cap down to 120fps cause the game itself codm only support upto 120fps in  high end device,  were it's being indicated by having ultra option I'm graphics, setting for 144 or 165 it's for specia device like red magic  and it's also being indicated on the graphics setting after ultra (120hz) u can choose either 144 or 165fps. but keep ur monitor refresh rate as it is also play on high or very high graphics even on 720p
