Why do I ONLY have stutters while playing games from steam?

[Cardinarium]

I recently acquired a new laptop which is a MSI 15.6" GF65 Thin 10SER which has the following specs:

Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-10750H Hexa-Core, 2.60 GHz Turbo until 5.0 GHz, 12 MB Cache

Chipset: Intel® HM470

RAM memory: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 2666MHz

Screen: 15.6" Full HD (1920x1080), Nível IPS, 144Hz, 45% NTSC, Thin Bezel

Graphics card: Intel® UHD Graphics 630 + NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 2060 6GB GDDR6

Storage: SSD 512GB NVMe PCIe

My problem is that every time I play a game from Steam such as CS:GO or Rocket League I have stutters every 10 seconds and it’s extremely annoying but it only happens on steam games because I also play Escape from Tarkov and Battlefront and both run perfectly.

I have already tried to clean boot my system, reinstall the graphics card drivers and the problem remains the same, so I think it’s a steam related problem, but I don’t know how to solve it.

I always play games on the lower settings and I know this laptop is more than capable of running games without any stutters.

Does anyone know how to solve it?

Never heard of 10 second stutters like that. You could try reinstalling the Steam client and doing file integrity checks on your games. Carefully check your Steam settings too, in case anything stands out as a likely culprit.

Also, temporarily disable any a/v application that you have running as that could easily do it.

See if there's any disc activity happening every 10 seconds, too. Could be a lot of things, but these starting points should help.

I tried reinstalling steam client and check the file integrity and the problem still remains the same. I checked my steam settings and everything seems normal. I don't know what is an a/v application.
It just doesn't make any sense why games from origin, ubisoft, epic games and battlestate games run perfectly and steam games have stutters all the time. I tried to contact steam support and they don't know either.

It's a strange one alright, I don't know either without taking a proper look at your system.

You could try a completely clean installation in order to troubleshoot it. Grab a spare SSD or HDD, unplug all other drives, install Windows 10 on it, update it to the latest version and patches, install drivers, then install Steam then two or three games and see how it works. I'll bet it all works properly. Then, just migrate all your data and settings from the old installation to the new one and you've resolved the problem.

An a/v application is security software, something like antivirus / antimalware / Norton / Kaspersky etc.
