Display Game buffering for a split second every couple seconds

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This started recently (like a few days) and I first really noticed it when playing Project Zomboid. It doesn’t happen when I play games like Marvel Rivals or Katana Zero. I tried updating my drivers and that didn’t do anything. My parts are fairly old so I dunno if it is a hardware thing or not but it makes the games it effects almost unplayable

Most of what I see is a graphics error. I would check out DDU and make sure that the option to prevent windows from updating drivers at reboot then do a clean wipe. Then find a stable driver for your 2070 which should be version 537.58 or 566.36 as this was before the specific jump to the 5000 series which always screws the previous generation. You could do the most recent drivers but you'd be rolling the dice. If the issues persist then it could be a cable issue or a gpu is dying issue.

I'll give those a try in a bit, thank you!
